1. Slowly But Surely.....

One Paper at a time, one report at a time. The Public WILL KNOW!

2. That's a really good article. n/t

[tmooses]

3. There should be an investigation of the media cover-up of a

news story implicating a US President of impeachable offenses. This was released almost 2 weeks ago-it was not buried by accident.

4. This is big.

The LA Times is not distributed in Los Angeles only, but is available and read throughout the state and beyond.

6. page A3 below the fold

if this had been Clinton!


did the reports blow over 'quickly' as the writer states? i thought they were a big deal over in Europe?

7. I'd like to change the subheading:

Instead of:
Critics of Bush call them proof that he and Blair never saw diplomacy as an option with Hussein.

This:
Critics of Bush call them proof that he and Blair LIED to take their nations to war.

The proof is in the passage:
Both Blair and Bush have denied that a decision on war was made in early 2002.

8. The way it's framed, people will stop reading after the first

paragraph or so...The only ones that will finish it will be us...

10. Well...better late than never, I guess.
