1. She's a fool to ask for Bush's transcript. Ask for the tape recordings!
Or, the fix is in, and we will never hear the actual conversation.

You can tell she is walking a very thin line here. She knows that any day that tape can hit the web. There is no doubt in my mind that she did in fact use the term " This conversation does not exist " when having discussions with agents of a foreign govt. Even if she was blackmailed as some have been saying, that is no excuse for her crimes. She made a choice. She was by far the most effective "Pioneer" of the 2004 Bush/Cheney re-election campaign. I hope that her and others in her "cabal" of enablers have a lot of free time to think about that and all it means come Jan 2011 if not sooner!

4. CNN soft ball treatment of story not surprising .
CNN's treatment of National Security is not a concern when it comes to Israel / AIPAC being involved on spying on the U.S. , in addition to colluding with American politicians , to commit illegal acts . Point in fact , they never included this blockbuster story in their regular news rotation and waited to the end of the day , to invite the accused criminal on to give her an opportunity to spin her defense .
,
You know the whole so called interview is rigged , when out of the block at the beginning of the piece they said " Jane Harman Fights Back " and includes leading softball questions by Wolf " sycophant for Israel " Blitzer , " how are you going to get back your reputation " assuming she should , assuming she's not guilty , assuming there is no trial .

Damn she played the victim card we'll , claiming on one hand not remembering the conversation with the AIPAC Agent ,( ya right ) and then knowing for sure her civil rights were violated , so why didn't she say something earlier , like she didn't know later she was wiretapped until now and just like CNN and the other cable sewage news , stopped reporting about GAZA over a month ago , said very little about AIPAC spying on the U.S. or the two convicted from AIPAC , they constantly censor , filter , or not report anything involving Israel or AIPAC . If Muslim Rep. Ellis had talked to Arab agents and was wire tapped making secret , illegal deals , you know damn well CNN , CBS would have made it a top story , screaming Arab spies colluding w/ Muslim politician .
Blitzer failed to mention 3 independent NSA employees said the tapes are real and definite crime were committed and failed to mention Roberto Gonzales participation , in Harman not being prosecuted , an obstruction of justice . CNN is a complete fraud , Blitzer is just a sycophant for Israel , AIPAC , the ADL , and by the hyped CRAIGS list story , Beauty Queen Gay marriage question & other hyped or contrived controversies , prove daily informing viewers of serious news is not on their radar screen .

But, Wolf did actually dig a little deeper then Mrs. Greenspan did this morning on MSNBC. I wanted to throw up after watching that shit she calls journalism.

9. But wait....
didn't you guys notice something??? she only appeared on the softball shows with the moronic
line of questioning...lead on, cut...lead on, cut... no follow up.

I double dare her to appear on Rachel's show, 20cents she doesn't...any wager/takers??

Her body language gives her away even with those softball questioning.

She seems agitated or excited, not sure in which order.

7. She never answered the questions. Did she end a conversation with "this conversation doesn't eixist"
She was asked several times here, but never answered it directly.

I hope the transcripts are released but I am sure there are huge obstacles that will probably prevent that from happening.

She sounds guilty.

8. This does not pass the smell test.
I think she is full of it. I heard her interview today on NPR. First, Robert Sigel called her on a point she made. I believe she said she read the transcript, then Sigel pointed to the fact she wanted to read the transcript of her alleged conversation 4 years ago. Second, she was on Intell Committee. Just the way she sounded when responded to Sigels questions had alarms going off mentally. I don't believe her.
