Separate Lies

* idiot bumiller, on idiot bolton (via tmp):
"Bolton, President Bush's nominee to be ambassador to the United Nations, failed to tell the Senate during his confirmation hearings that he had been interviewed by the State Department's inspector general looking into how American intelligence agencies came to rely on fabricated reports that Iraq had tried to buy uranium from Africa... because Mr. Bolton had forgotten about it."

the nyt headline gives us the requisite anodyne headline: "U.N. Nominee Omitted Data at Hearings in the Senate" and bumiller spouts her usual nonsense (eg: " Democrats denied Republicans the 60 votes they needed to confirm Mr. Bolton") but i did enjoy the fact that a movie called "Separate Lies" is sponsoring the page... i dont know if that advertisement rotates, so heres the screen grab, just in case.
