Did I hear right? They got intelligence from "THE INTERNET"?
Saw a report that the latest is Idiot Son and his band of clown warriors accepted and promoted intelligence that was found ON THE INTERNET and accessible to any punk Bushbot?

2. Here's the documentation for the plaguerizing
Powell embarrassingly tried to convince the U.N. Security Council of Saddam's deception by citing a UK dossier that was based on a plaguerized doctoral thesis that was ten years old.

4. And they get all their info about Al Qaeda's attacks from their blogs.
Notice how all of these terror "threats" and whatnot are based on some "Islamic teror website."

5. Interestingly, the professor whose thesis was plagarized ....
Glen Rangwala had a website that provided complete documentary (UNSCOM and the '03 UN group) evidence of the destruction of almost all of Iraq's WMD and the uselessness of anything that might have remained. It was an amazing site that was found by some DUers BECAUSE of the unauthorized use of his thesis and the subsequent publication of his name and quotes from him.

6. Hate to point this out...but you've made a spelling error there...
Did I hear right? They got intelligence from "THE INTERNET"

Should be:

Did I hear right? They got intelligence from "THE INTERNETS"

Plural dear heart, plural.

Yes, they did get the intelligence from the Internets...but it wasn't our one, it was the OTHER Internets that ONLY exist in Junior's fucked-up head.
