That's from last November. We already knew about that; it was referred to (though not linked) in your OP.
The point remains, all these sites are part of a single circle-jerk Bubble of Blogs -- kind of a sandbox that anyone can play in, not real news media. I could go in there right now and write a story on how ScreamingEagle has posters of Michelle Obama over his bed. I don't need "evidence", I could just make it up. Then I go to another Bubble Blog and repeat it-- voilà, "confirmation". Of course I'd use different names in the Bubble, like "Craig Ratt, President, Confederate States of America", and then come back here and post a link to it saying "hey, look what I found".
This sadly is the state of discourse today. To paraphrase P.T. Barnum, there's a Bubble Blog reader born every minute who thinks he's reading the news.
what a pile of condescending slop....
the POINT remains that the story is TRUE....and just because Admiral Lyons said it last November doesn't mean we need to dismiss it or that it makes the story any less valid....
keep trying to deny it because someone used "washington examiner" instead of "examiner"...or that it is a "circle jerk of Bubble Blogs"......it just makes you look more like the partisan hack you are....
i know you would just like the story to just disappear......waaah.....
"The story is TRUE" -- even though your own link shows Lyons beginning his diatribe with the words "I speculate that...".
Thanks for clearing that up.
P.T. Barnum called. I took a message. Sounded like "bwa-hahahaha".
typical liberal two-step....
you first tried to discredit the story, i.e. invalidate it, because you couldn't find it on the Washington Examiner.....
now you're trying to invalidate the story because Admiral Lyons "speculated".......boy you sure know how to grasp at straws....
the very FACT that a FOUR STAR Admiral is "speculating" such a scenario is not something to dismiss out of hand......as i'm sure you and especially BO would very much like to do.....the hypothesis explains alot of details....
of course this story was DEAD before it even hit the media.....just a blip on Lou Dobbs....
i'd like to hear BO's real position on the Blind Sheik......that'll be the day.....
