Wolf Blitzer Selling Al Qaeda's "Guilt" to the Spanish Ambassador

The Spanish ambassador talked about ETA as being behind yesterday's bombings in Madrid and Wolf kept saying things like "But wouldn't ETA have given a warning?" "But ten simultaneous explosions are not anything ETA has done before," etc.

Three cheers for the Spanish ambassador, who wouldn't give in to the line the Bushistas want to promote: Osama/ Al Qaeda as Uber-Bogeyman.

(Why am I watching Wolf? Because Lou Dobbs is on next and he's starting to be called a liberal, a radical. . . and I love it!!!)

1. I'm with you (re Lou Dobbs)!
I hated him when he was touting stocks.

Tom Daschle is on tonight. Maybe Lou will ask him why he's rolled over and played dead for years.

2. Lou's having to begin with the party line -- stories

asserting it must be AL Qaeda.

They said the Spanish government prefers it to be ETA because it will help them in the election next week.

They didn't say that the US government prefers it to be. . .
