Has the word lie left their lexicon?
Sept. 12, 2007 – In a new embarrassment for the Bush administration top spymaster, Director of National Intelligence Mike McConnell is withdrawing an assertion he made to Congress this week that a recently passed electronic-surveillance law helped U.S. authorities foil a major terror plot in Germany.
Four intelligence-community officials, who asked for anonymity discussing sensitive material, said the new law, dubbed the “Protect America Act,” played little if any role in the unraveling of the German plot. The U.S. military initially provided information that helped the Germans uncover the plot. But that exchange of information took place months before the new “Protect America” law was passed.</em>
“Admits error…”? What sort of mealy-mouthed crap is that? Why our so-called “liberal media” can’t call a liar a liar is beyond me- but they better put down their King George pom-poms and start cheering for the truth, or we’re gonna be even deeper in the ditch without a wench than we are now. Suggested headline?
“Spy Chief forced to recant lie to Congress”.
There. Is that so “biased”? No. Its a statement of fact. PRINT IT!
