2. I care. He should be in Jail. Fraud is illegal.
Criminal charges should be brought. I'd like to hear his story.

3. Not in Jail?
Given the seriousness of the allegations, I find it shocking that he's not locked up somewhere. Something doesn't make sense here...

5. I've heard nothing of his whereabouts. I'd sure like to hear how Cheney

4. He has grabbed solid ground, and it is ABB
Looking forward to his wily ways in keeping his power base. The idiot can only hurt BushCo while helping himself.

6. Wolfie Blitzer informed us that "you know he hasn't been charged with
anything", and thus a free man. This while talking to David Gergin who was supurb. Gergin pointed out how serious this is. He's the guy this administration went to bed with and pushed to get us into war (even a sixth grader could have determined this guy was a manipulative liar (remember his interviews on tv before the Iraq war---total slime). Gergin was really pushing for investigations into his links to the Bush administration, etc. That's when Wolfie had to remind us to "be nice to to him because he's still not proven guility"---Gergin slapped Wolfie down on that, too and said that still doesn't exuse anything and we need answers. Wolfie, for god's sake, get up off your knee pads and take a breath of fresh air!!! Your boy's smelling worse and worse each day.

8. Wolfie Says He'll Be On CNN on Sunday
That Gergen interview was incredible. He's really pissed off at this regime and especially what he's found out (or probably always knew) about Chalabi. He wasn't mincing words in calling this guy a double agent and even a spy/traitor. Damning words...and, as you mention, slapped Wolfie to the point he almost left the reservation for a couple minutes.

Wolfie's gonna have his friend Chalabi on this Sunday...wouldn't it be great to watch this fraud cuffed and frog-marched out of the studio...on MSNBC...:evilgrin:

Cheers!

7. NEWS FLASH: Due to Bush's eagerness to be a "War President"...
...he allowed the US to be pimped by Iran, via their golden boy Chalabi, to the tune of $250+ billion, more than 800 US lives, our global reputation, thousands of innocent Iraqis, our freedoms and liberties, and our "moral standing" in the worldwide community.

See, and people scoffed at me when I told them that Bush and Ossama worked for the same people. Both do the bidding of fundamentalist extremists...

9. probably

Days after U.S. troops and Iraqi police raided his home in Iraq, Ahmad Chalabi, Leader of the Iraqi National Congress and former Bush administration ally, will appear on this Sunday's "Meet the Press with Tim Russert" to discuss his controversial relationship with the United States government and the intelligence investigation mounted against him.

And in our "Meet the Press" roundtable, David Broder and Robin Wright of the Washington Post, John Harwood of the Wall Street Journal, and William Safire of the New York Times will discuss the situation in Iraq and the political implications for Decision 2004.
