It's curious that Coulter had to mix some fear mongering into her discussion of the Craig affair. A point that she failed to note, though, was that one of the students had previously been arrested in Egypt for terrorism related activities: http://counterterrorismblog.org/2007/08/indicted_usf_student_has_terro.php The natural question is, why the hell did the US government allow him to enter in the first place. Another glaring failure of the HSA. That's probably why Coulter never mentioned it. She only tells you half-truths, even when she talks about facts.
You're really pathetic. This point has been clarified so many times for you on this board since Mark Foley it is highly unlikely that you still are not getting it. You're just pretending here. Who are you kidding?
Maybe I'm just a slow learner. I'll be convinced you're right when Nancy Pelosi starts denouncing bathroom, bathhouse, glory hole and other forms of anonymous homo sex as perverted and disgusting.
Another anti-gay slur thinly disguised as a swipe at liberals. Ann loves to attack two groups at once (see the "nappy headed ho" reference above). And the mainstream media is again conveniently "liberal". Would this be the same mainstream media that fully supported the Bush Administration lying us into invading and occupying Iraq? Yes, it would be. No liberal I ever heard of wanted that, but the New York Times, MSNBC, yadda yadda all did. I expect Coulter to be a pathological liar and a selective amnesiac, but who is paying YOU to be so, AAAinthebeltway? I can go on but why bother? This article is full of enough strawmen to populate a mid-size city. How much is that hack getting paid to write tripe like this, anyway?
k2: >How much is that hack getting paid to write tripe >like this, anyway? Uhhh --- Millions and millions. JB
Chris Mathews not liberal, mainstream media not liberal...What's next, Dennis Kuchinich is the new Jesse Helms?
Where have you been? NBC/MSNBC/CNBC is owned by defense contractor/warmonger GE. Remember Phil Donahue? He had the highest rated show on MSNBC when he was fired because he didn't support the war drums for invading Iraq. ABC is owned by Disney and is almost as far to the right as Fox. More than a few of us remember the "docudrama" that blamed Clinton for 9/11. New York Times: Scooter Libby's girlfriend Judith Miller. This isn't even obscure stuff. Sorry, I didn't mean to imply you're a pathological liar like Coulter, but what's your excuse for all the selective amnesia?
Phil Donahue may have had the highest ratings on MSNBC, but his ratings were so low they barely registered on the Nielson's ratings. That's why he was fired. He was brought in because he was a "legend" of tv and was expected to gain them all kinds of viewers. I remember him even being inducted into some Academy's Hall of Fame. But of course he had no competition back in his day, when there was only 3 real tv stations. So when he went against some real competition on cable, he was exposed for what he really was - a no-talent hack. And not supporting the war in Iraq? I guess that makes a good argument why we still have Katie Couric anchoring CBS Evening News despite the falling ratings - she's soooo pro Bush and pro Iraq War. Oops.....
Was this mentioned in the docu also? Or did they just talk about Clinton's utter refusal to act against OBL? http://archive.newsmax.com/archives/ic/2005/8/9/120750.shtml More than a year before the 9/11 attacks, Clinton administration intelligence officials had identified four of the 19 9/11 hijackers as a terrorist threat - including al-Qaida team leader Mohamed Atta and his partner Marwan al-Shehhi, whose planes destroyed the World Trade Center and killed over 2,700 people. But the critical information was not acted on, at least in part, because of prohibitions against intelligence sharing implemented by former Deputy Attorney General Jamie Gorelick, who was reportedly installed in her post at the insistence of then-first lady Hillary Clinton. In the summer of 2000, a military team, known as Able Danger, had prepared a chart that included visa photographs of Atta and al Shehhi and recommended to the military's Special Operations Command that the information be shared with the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Rep. Curt Weldon and a former intelligence official told the New York Times. "We knew these were bad guys, and we wanted to do something about them," the former intelligence official said. However, the recommendation was rejected and the information was not shared, in part, said the Times, because the four suspects had entered the United States on valid entry visas. But Rep. Weldon and the unnamed intelligence official also cited what the paper described as "a sense of discomfort common before Sept. 11 about sharing intelligence information with a law enforcement agency." In fact, such intelligence sharing was strictly prohibited under Ms. Gorelick's policy, known at the Justice Department as "The Wall," which, in the spring of 2000, had also prevented the CIA from tipping off the FBI that two additional 9/11 hijackers, Khalid al-Mihdhar and Nawaf al-Hazmi, had entered the country. Al-Midhar and al-Hamzi were identified by the Able Danger team as well, the Times said. HERE'S THE 9/11 COMMISSION REPORT'S COVER UP - GORELICK WAS ON THAT COMMISSION - APPOINTED BY DEMOCRATS.... In its final report, however, the 9/11 Commission made no mention of the fact that the Clinton administration had identified key members of the hijack team, even though, the Times noted, that information had been shared with 9/11 Commission members. The account by Weldon and the Times intelligence source is the first assertion that Atta and al Shehhi - who caused the most destruction in the worst attack ever suffered on U.S. soil - had been identified by the Clinton administration. In testimony before the 9/11 Commission last year, then-Attorney General John Ashcroft blasted Gorelick's "Wall," saying, "The single greatest structural cause for September 11 was the wall that segregated criminal investigators and intelligence agents" "[Ms. Gorelick] built that wall," said Ashcroft, "through a March 1995 memo." The Gorelick memo stipulated, in part: "We believe that it is prudent to establish a set of instructions that will more clearly separate the counterintelligence investigation from the more limited, but continued, criminal investigations. These procedures, which go beyond what is legally required, will prevent any risk of creating an unwarranted appearance that [the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act] is being used to avoid procedural safeguards which would apply in a criminal investigation." Ms. Gorelick is expected to be a leading candidate for attorney general should Mrs. Clinton win the 2008 presidential election.
