Distraction: Spitzer
To distract us from:

UK top cop who led CIA probe found dead

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080311/ap_on_re_eu/britain_police_death

and

Fallon resigns as Mideast military chief

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080311/ap_on_go_ca_st_pe/fallon_resigns_1

Essentially, this is the beginning of war with Iran, and a message to those who investigate the next target on the PNAC map.

4. Good catch on the Fallon story! That one eluded me entirely and
I've been listening to CNN all day on XM radio--haven't heard it mentioned once. But maybe I just missed it. This would appear to be newsworthy, to say the least.

10. Is This Why Bush Is So Confident The Repugs Will Win Back The WH.....
a war with Iran before the GE. Maybe - he'll declare that he is going to just have to stay in office if he takes us to war with Iran.

And you know the other day - I heard on a RW radio commentators show - I think the same one that McCain had to dress down for him - stressing Barack HUSAIN Obama - Cunningham - that the reason Obama and Clinton want to bring back the troops to the U.S. is so they can declare Marshall Law.

What a bizzaro world we live in.

15. i completely agree. but i go further: Spitzer, 1st dividend of Domestic Surveillance this Year
expect to see a lot more of this sort of distraction. democrats will be picked off one-by-one with domestic surveillance, and it'll be used as a cover for even more future crimes worldwide.
