#1 Tee hee.

Since CBS/NYT got their info. from ElBaradei himself, that does not speak well to his competency to head of the IAEA. Another arrow in Bush's quiver as he works quietly to replace the .... gentleman.

It does reflect well on ABC and Jennings that they did the research and reported the truth, especially as it makes their boy Kerry look really, really, stupidly vindictive. Does ABC still consider Kerry to be their boy, or have they thrown him over as a bad investment?

#2 Actually, I think it was more a chance to "stick it to" NYT and CBS than an outing of Kerry.

#3 "Sticking it" to the NYT, CBS, or Kerry, doesn't matter to me, as long as its ALBB (Any Liberal But Bush)

#4 ---But International Atomic Energy Agency documents obtained by ABC News and first reported on "World News Tonight with Peter Jennings" indicate the amount of missing explosives may be substantially less than the Iraqis reported.---

Gritting his teeth all the way.... Hope he laid in a supply of antacids.

#5 Hey, this is just a hatchet job concocted by El Baradei, Kerry, and the MSM. Kerry is still sticking with the lie today hoping it will stick with someone that votes.

#6 I can't believe that no one has picked up on what John Fn sKerry said in one of his speeches. I was watching FNC and I can't remember where Skerry was talking but he said "the explosives from QA QAA where used to blow up the USS Cole, etc.." That is not the verbatum quote but it is what he said and my jaw dropped to the floor. If that where true then it would show that Saddam was working with Al Qeada, and that the IEAE was responsible for not securing the explosives. Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't the USS Cole bombing happen before the invasion, and before the WTC attack.
I also, think that this story was a set up by Clinton to sink Skerry's run for office.
