A caller on WJ told it like it is - discussion is about World Bank and
Mr. Wolfowitz - what the caller said tied Wolfowitz to Wurmser Feith one other person as the coordinators with Israel for ongoing war. It seemed to rattle Lamb who challenged caller to say where he knows that from - caller mentioned Banford book.

I remain perplexed how Lamb can be so innocent about what is really happening to us. He seems incredulous about so many truths being called in that DUers have generally acknowledged for various long periods of time.

I seem to go out of my way to watch Lamb on Fridays to see this happen over and over. Sometimes I wish someone could sit him down and give him a primer of how things work - right there is in his city - our coun try.

1. I heard that too. Is it possible that Lamb really doesn't know
how much this information has made it into the "general knowledge" category out here on the "nets"? I though he and his crew were more media savvy than that.

3.  ... 'not knowing' is probably part of his contract ...
... he's out there to be an expert, so when someone calls with something that sounds off-the-wall and he reacts with "GASP! What? I never heard of that!" ... then viewers can chalk it up to :tinfoilhat: Libruls and look no further, because - of course - the journalist wouldn't obfuscate, now would he??

2. maybe he and Ostrich?

4. He should do what Diane Rehm did
she had a caller last week who was talking about Blackwater ownership and the number of ppl it has in Iraq. She sounded skeptical. A couple of days later she announced her show this coming Monday will be all about Blackwater. I think she looked it up, figured out it is a real issue and got someone or some people to come on her show and talk about it. I don't begrudge ppl not being informed, I begrudge them for not BECOMING informed once the issue hits their radar screen.

5. I think you hit it right - "not BECOMING informed". That is Lamb's
problem - he acts surprised multiple times about the same thing. Well, all honor to Diane Rehm.

The entire country should know about Blackwater - the recepient of most of the stolen and missing money. With big plans for the future. A privatized police. Imagine frowning on a Bush type President and landing in a Blackwater prison.

TAKE BACK AMERICA. Great slogan - thanks Steph and crew.
