Drudge reporting "Germans Say U.S. used bad data to invade Iraq"
http://drudgereport.com/flash2.htm

L.A. Times will apparently feature this Sunday Morning.Now,i know Drudge is an unreliable source,but this report appears to have the same information that we have been tossing around for months,including the intentional misrepresentation by Colin Powell and George W Bush.

8. Hey, I know! We could call hamburgers "Flesh of Freedom".
I'll have a Flesh of Freedom patty, please--char-grilled with the White Phosphorus.

7. You've captured the essence of it.
If someone like DRUDGE is reporting something like this, it's because he and his masters know that the one thing that pisses off Americans is being criticized by Europeans. The idea is to get Americans involved in attacking the messenger (the Germans), in order to subvert the message--the message being, that we went to war based on false intel.

I must say that I long ago got over my annoyance at the snootiness of the French. When I heard that "freedom fries" crap, and when I see, over and over, freeptards sniping at the French, it makes me want to go buy an expensive bottle of French wine, or some other French product. Let's face it, the French were right about this. So were the Germans.

11. Thanks! It's the same crap they pull when they start up about
"the war on Christmas". Make their Christian Right friends look like "victims". :nopity:

Only a short leap to then making all who disagree with the Christian Right look like villains.

4. Most likely a true report, as these guys just get access to reports
a little earlier than the general public...
