#6 I expect yet another hit piece. Imagine Hollywood cranking out a film demonstrating that FDR not only allowed Pearl Harbor to happen but that he had planned it. After all, everyone knows the Japanese could not launch a carrier attack thousands of miles from the Home Islands. And where were the American carriers? Google it!

#7 1. Body of lies is a ref to a Churchill quote. "in war, truth is so precious, it must be protected by a body guard of lies"
2. Ignatius is kinda liberal hawkish - perhaps somewhat to the left of me, but not a "put terrorist in scare quotes" kinda guy.

#8 We rented "Blood Diamond' the other day. I thought he did a good job in that.

#9 adapt the story from David Ignatius' book

That's David Ignatius of the WashingPost. I'm not sure what to make of his novels, but he seems to be an open Democratnik booster in his columns.

#10 Bodyguard of Lies is also the title of an excellent nonfiction book on the use of deception by the Allies in the Normandy invasion.
