1. Andrea Mitchell is a neocon and was a not-so-subtle advocate for the invasion of Iraq
Par for the course.

2. I really don't think Andrea Mitchell Greenspan is very smart. Often
times on her own program she doesn't seem to been listening to her guests...evidenced by her questioning. She seems aloof and distracted. The posted statement supports my first observation.

4. And Andrea knows this how???
Or is this another sleazy speculation to make Obama look bad. Does she offer one bit of proof that the Obama Adminsitration is send people to Egypt i.e. renditions?

If she knows something she should put up or STFU. This is not something to speculate about or assume. These are serious accusations that need to be backed up with something more than her dislike of the current administration.

9. I'm guessing this was during the Bushco years. If they're still doing it, then
I guess they're still going there, but it was Bush/Cheney/Rumsfeld who started it.

I think that's been reported on other shows, although I'm not sure it was worded that way.

Bad judgment, Andrea.

12. The current head of CIA said during his confirmation hearing
that rendition was "a good tool" that he would use. CSPAN has Panetta's hearing in their archive.

This woman was talking about Bush's program but there is no evidence that we aren't still rendering people to Egypt, unfortunately.

10. How shameful. What we did and are doing is unforgiveable and she is praising a partner.

We have to live with these killers and the torturers and cover-up artists - why are they being so bold as to admit it? Arrogance - a trait that can be attributed to all of them. American supremacist of their own model.
