* "UNDER siege over allegations of secret CIA detention centres in Europe, Condoleezza Rice, the American secretary of state, is to go on the offensive when she meets European allies this week.
Convinced that the media, rather than Europe’s leaders, are making the biggest fuss about reports of “black sites” housing top Al-Qaeda prisoners, Rice has decided she can afford to brush off mounting criticism of America’s human rights record." (link)
this outta be a hoot.
* rudepundit takes on david brooks' latest column. i havent read the brooks article, but rudepundits column reminds me of something ive been meaning to mention. brooks is usually on lehrer on friday nights - and his arguments on lehrer are often exactly the same as in his column that week - including the exact phrasiology. its quite amazing that he can actually get all of his TP's out in a 3way discussion on tv. its not as though he has a consistent worldview, and its the same stuff every week - his 'thoughts' could be completely up-is-down upside-down from one week to the next - but there is a perfect correlation between what he says on lehrer and his articles from that week.
* theres an odd rumour floating around that joe-mentum will soon take rumsfelds job!
* for the record, john rendon created the INC, paid for by the pentagon. the INC then paid bksh $25/month. francis brooke at the INC is ex-bksh and ex-rendon.
* you can get scott's interview with sy hersh here. its very interesting, as hersh always is - he says a bunch of stuff including that there wont be a war in iran, and he totally scoffs at the mehlis report. i should have asked scott to ask sy about the darby pix.
