You know I find it interesting how this 6-YEAR-OLD tape surfaces...
Edited on Sun Oct-01-06 11:33 AM by originalpckelly
right after we hear about some Republican Congressman fooling around with little kids. Doesn't anyone else?

5 years since 9/11, and 2 and 1/2 years since the 9/11 commission, and somehow this tape just surfaces NOW. I wonder why?

1. That tape is a one day story at best.
The Foley cover-up scandal and Woodward's book will be the news this coming up week.

Sex scandals get the attention of the public.

6. You betcha...
but I'm just saying. I find it real interesting. I suppose it means they are scraping the bottom of the barrel, and that this is all they had.

2. Yes, I do and I find it extremely odd about the terror camps
training videos surfacing right around the time of ABC's Path to 9-11. As bad as these tapes
were what is going on in Iraq right now is 100 times worse. Iraq has become 1 big
training camp.

16. I wish that an Iraqi US citizen who had family in Iraq could
actually talk to family there so we could know what it is like to live in Baghdad or Tikrit. I would like to know if they see the increase or feel the war around them. Is the fighting just in the cities of the Sunni triangle? Is it easy to get to work or buy food? Are their children safe? Do they have electricity? Is their government able to provide for a local justice system? Have they seen any improvements since "mission accomplished"period? Anyone who knows an Iraqi with family still there, please ask them.

12. bush* stole his way into office Jan 20, 2001. The video is a YEAR
prior to the election theft, not days. They may be evil pricks but they apparently aren't dumb enough to fake the date code a few days before, that would put their lie to close to themselves.

14. You're right - I messed up the date but they obviously didn't
I still think it was for the date factor.

21. I agree with you, the date chosen is purposeful for the "Blame Clinton"
effect. I wasn't trying to do a gotcha on you, just wanted to make sure we have the correct info. Unlike those in the non-reality based bush*munity.

Cheers.

4. Interesting question. , I've wondered about the timing on the tapes
Edited on Sun Oct-01-06 11:35 AM by JDPriestly
in the past, and here we go again. Bin Laden or his successors or publishers or public relations people seem to time everything just so as to help Bush. It's astounding.

8. I think this story is to help conveniently remind everyone that there
is an enemy... and torture is good. Torture law was just passed. It seems conveniently forgotten. I'm not even sure KO covered it on Friday.

9. Wonder if bushitler will make a big deal out of the signing or will just
quietly do it w/o much notice. Wonder what SCOTUS will have to say about it.

10. 9/11 9/11
The media has to have something new to keep 9/11 in the headlines and this is it...I have said that CNN has played and referred to it for two days now. They commented on the Foley story on Saturday and after Saturday night they are saying nothing.

13. I'm sure it was released to divert attention off Foley and to keep
9/11 up front. But, perhaps we should be ignoring this insignificant video that has been owned by the cabal for six years and burrow a little deeper to see what else is going on today that they might not want on the front pages.

15. What tape are we talking about?
I missed something. All I see is "Foley, Foley, Foley" at the moment.

HELP!

20. That always happens.
Olbermann had a report that proves this always happens after bad news surfaces.
