Some of us in the Govt. wouldn't know that one is going on unless we turn on CNN or Fox.

1. yea, and it now turns out that the "data collection" happened in 2000

and in 2001 when all the financial sites being "alerted" were actually scoped out ... WTF???? No wonder chimpy sent pickles, bubble gum (twin Babs) and tongue-lash (Jenna) out to NYC!!!!!

2. A three year old threat

But that little detail won't get the press that yesterdays hysteria got so Rove's approach is working.

Who was it that said something along the lines of a lie can make it's way around the world while the truth is still putting it's socks on ? I bet Karl Rove knows.

4. the way the local faux channel was yelling it out on 'the news' last night

... you'd think Mars had attacked ... sensationalism is dangerous in today's world ... history might record that it was the reckless sensationalism of the Bush White House with its Corporate Media of the Shilling which caused an unnecessary disaster/event ... they just don't give a damn (except for making their pie higher and maintaining power for the good ol'boys) ...
