Susan Lindauer To Speak At National Oress Club Tomorrow / Michael Collins In Attendance
"Subject: Wednesday: Formerly-Accused Iraqi Agent Susan Lindauer at National Press Club (McClendon Group)

From:John Edward Hurley, Chairman, McClendon Group

Founded by White House Correspondent Sarah McClendon (1911-2003)

Re: National Press Club Session on Wednesday, January 28th

Our next session will be on Wednesday, January 28th at 7:00pm in the McClendon Room on the 13th Floor of the National Press Club (at 14th & F Streets NW, Washington, DC). Dinner with our speaker(s) will begin at 6:30pm.

You may recall some time ago that we had Susan Lindauer as our speaker. At that time, she had just been released from the Carswell Federal Prison Medical Center on a Texas military base and from the Metropolitan Correction Center in Manhattan after nearly a year of pre-trial detention without a conviction at trial or even an evidentiary hearing.

The federal government claimed that she was not competent to assist in her own defense and attempted to forcibly drug her. Her appearance as our speaker showed how conspicuously competent that Ms. Lindauer was and is.

Her troubles clearly derived from her findings as an intelligence expert that our late national adventures in the Middle East were not derived from any sane assessments, a view she shared with her second cousin, Andy Card, former Chief of Staff to U.S. President George W. Bush.

Much to the chagrin of the media manipulators, she's back. The government recently dropped all charges against her, thus denying her an opportunity to prove her case. Since this only happened a few days ago, she has graciously agreed to be our guest again to bring us up to date on the convoluted efforts of the U.S. Department of Justice to cover up the facts in her case.

This is an inside story that we have been in on from the very beginning. Thus, you won't want to miss the latest developments.

As an added feature, we also expect to hear from investigative reporter Michael Collins, who will join us for our session. Her attorney, Brian W. Shaughnessy, may also attend.

Mr. Collins articles about the Lindauer case are linked at the bottom of his most recent article for New Zealand?s Scoop Independent News, entitled ?Feds Drop Case against Accused Iraqi Agent? at www.Scoop.co.NZ/stories/HL0901/S00210.htm.

So plan to be with us... and please remember to bring a friend.

###

N.B. National Press Club members may attend the event free of charge; however, they must pay for dinner. Dinner with our speaker will be at 6:30pm in the Sarah McClendon Room of the National Press Club. The voluntary but suggested donation for others to cover our expenses is $5.00. Parking is FREE with National Press Club dinner validation of your parking receipt from the PMI Garage on G St. NW (between 13th & 14th streets NW)."

1. There was an online interview with her this weekend
It still appears to be being broadcasted in replay. Several hours in length.

I have to be honest in saying I didn't know if I wanted more to roll my eyes in disbelief, or close my eyes and shudder over the revelations she presents.

2. Shudder
What the gov tried to do to her is unbelievable. It's like the story "Changeling" but with the Iraq war, right down to the insane asylum. Then Obama gets in and presto, like magic, the case is dropped.

4. Here Comes The Sun?
Truly, things like Lindauer's case being dropped just like that, snap, gives me real hope. I don't think, after what they put her through, that the dropping of the case is a co-incidence. I think those Gopers (pronounced gop as in slop) better watch out. I think Obama is playing them and one day will land the kaboom on Cantor's and the rest of their heads.

11. This case is illustrative and a help to Obama

It hasn't had the publicity that the other 'cause celebes' have had and it's easy to look into,
well, easy if you are not part of the Bush administration.

I'm sure that Holders immanent appointment and transition efforts were the "stimulus package" that
got this case dismissed. The rationale for dismissal was weak but the act was good.

Lets how the weather calms down tonight.

6. Good Question
I checked out the C-span schedule for today but they only have part of the info up. Here's the link, and this one works. I'll see what I can do to replace the other.

7. Yeah, C-SPAN sometimes doesn't have complete schedule listings
and of course if the Congress is in session or hearings then all bets are off. However, they will often air NPC at a later date. That's why I was curious if they were going to be there with their cameras. If they are then it will possibly air at some time in the future, perhaps you could even ask them when they might broadcast the event.

I did go to autorank's link and found his articles about the topic.
