U.S. Corrects Terror Report...Attacks actually went up

[KennedyGuy]

I just read in Reuters that the report that the Bushies and Faux News trumpeted which claimed that terrorist attacks were at their lowest point in years, was actually wrong and that terrorist attacks actually went up. Powell is said to be "concerned". I don't know how to do links or I'd have posted it in Breaking news. Is there nothing this administration won't lie about! Good God. what's the in phrase for repugs these days? Ah yes...I fing this "troubling". You'll find it at www.reuters.com under the politics section.

2. To do a link

highlight the url in the address bar then click on edit/copy then go to the page you want to put it on and click on edit/paste and put the brackets around it.

3. Tom Brokaw reported that someone in the adminstration said

"we screwed up".. What a bunch of lying shits. These lies have got to get the voters going. There are too many instances of lies, lies, lies, lies, lies, lies, lies and then there are more lies.

4. There's a nice report in the Seattle PI, as well.

It seems they "forgot" part of 2003. And Waxman says he was told it wasn't "political"??? :wtf:

5. I read somewhere today that terrorism was up was 35%

why isn't bu$h&co in prison yet?

6. I did not believe them when they said it. Just pick up a paper----

and you knew they did not know what they were talking about.

9. "Heros in error"

That's a statement from Achmed Chalabi regarding bogus Iraq intell from his defectors from Iraq.

Powell also made "errors" with his presentation to the UN and now tries to blame the CIA for them. Of course, he failed to mention that he got the info from The Office of Special Plans, a place he "jokingly" refered to as the Gestapo. You haven't read about that office? Go to you fave search engine and read up on it.

11. Um...that was a joke, friend

My name isn't really Alan Colmes.

I swear.

8. I wonder if they will also point out that domestic terrorism is 23X worse

in this country than terrorism committed by a non-national?

No?

I didn't think so.

10. Bush's New Number One Single, "Oops, I Lied Again"

I have to say, it is absolutely pathetic the degree to which this administration is willing to lie. I can't say I'm surprised, after the fiction and lies they spread in connection with the invasion and their approval of torture, lieing about the success of Bush's anti-terrorism policies is relatively tame.

Here are some more links:

BBC: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/3796185.stm

CNN: http://www.cnn.com/2004/US/06/10/powell.terror.report.ap/index.html

Fox News: Hmmm, can't seem to find a link. You would think that if the BBC reported this, Fox News would know whats going on in their own backyard.
