Jane Harman The Liar

Misc

After yesterday’s back and forth of rather or not Jane Harman got the New York Times to hold the wiretapping story in 2004, it is now confirmed. She in fact did: Congresswoman Harman spoke to Washington Bureau Chief Phil Taubman in late October or early November, 2004, apparently at the request of General Hayden. She […]

Did Condi Break The Law In 2004?

Misc

That’s what the FBI is wondering: FBI agents investigating government watchdog Scott Bloch have subpoenaed any records that would reveal whether concerns about the 2004 elections prompted him to clear Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice of ethics violations. Bloch, the U.S. special counsel who investigates federal employee whistleblower complaints, found no merit to allegations that […]

Earlier I posted on this article: Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said she cannot recall then-CIA chief George Tenet warning her of an impending al-Qaida attack in the United States, as a new book claims he did two months before the attacks on Sept. 11, 2001. “What I am quite certain of […]

Condi's Convenient Amnesia

This sure isn’t a way to defend the claims in Woodward’s new book: Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said she cannot recall then-CIA chief George Tenet warning her of an impending al-Qaida attack in the United States, as a new book claims he did two months before the attacks on Sept. 11, 2001. “What I […]

Cofer Black, met with Ms. Rice at the White House to impress upon her the seriousness of the intelligence the agency was collecting about an impending attack. But both men came away from the meeting feeling that Ms. […]

If ABC Wants War Then War They Got

Misc

ABC wants to turn into a right wing propaganda machine, then so be it. We will go after them where it hurts – their advertisers. They have fully shown their partisanship in the new 9/11 documentary, and Think Progress has uncovered more evidence of it: ABC has been aggressively advancing its inaccurate and politically slanted […]
