Reply #5: I am not an appeaser, however...

What if the Greens did what the Wired piece suggests? I.e., rushed the story out and then the affadavit came later in order to set the facts straight.

Is there anyone out there with personal knowledge of the chronology?

The reason that I ask this "devil's advocate" question is it seems to me that there is a lot of "grand standing" out there. Look at Bev Harris or Wayne Madsen. Arguably Clint Curtis as well. The individual actors in all this must be examined for their motivations if we are to know the true story.

Part of me wants to prove fraud because I do not like George Bush and I believe he represents a dangerous minority of power-hungry fascists. However, as with Bush's war in Iraq, what do we give up if we let individuals with personal agendas distort the truth in an effort to make the ends justify the means?
