Sneak preview headline on the DSludgereport web site. Which Bush deal they are on about and when is anyone's guess.

That's all, folks.

Hope, Change and , er, and, um, ...er, ....

Hope is all you have if the Washington Times is your source for attacking Obama. They should just merge with WorldNetDaily already.

Did you know the Washington Times was the CIA paper?

At worst, Obama may have told the Iraqis that he would not feel committed to any status of forces agreement signed by Bush but not ratified in the Senate, should he be electred president. No big deal. If that is a deal killer, so what?

Amir Taheri ran a story about this in the New York Post back in September. I'd post a link, but, you know. I'm new.

Google should point you to it. It's been a month - if the story had any credibility at all McCain wouldn't be gasping for air with Ayers.

The Washington Times was setup by the CIA after the Watergate scandal. The CIA decided the Washington Post would never again be allowed to drive a President from office. The CIA did favors for the Unification Church and the Church financed the paper. The Washington Times has never been profitable and the Unification Church has always had a hands off relationship with the paper.

They aren't saying much, but reports are that they are spinning like mad

Article's up:

Though I did get an error message instead of the third page.

No evidence that 1) he did it or 2) that doing it would even be wrong. And yes, it is the same story the Post had weeks ago.

Well, I *do* know that the Washington Times is owned by "Reverend" Sun Myung Moon, who founded it in 1982.

And that is all anybody needs to know about its credibility.
