Comments: A Quick Word of Thanks

One suggestion. It would help a lot if you can also show the information in some diagrams. Such as a time-line diagram of the main events, a network diagram showing who passed what documents to whom, etc.

When is the white van coming around and picking these guys up for the funny farm? Here's a story to laugh yourself into the weekend. From HuffingtonPost:

O’Reilly Claims He Is Personally Responsible For Lower Gas Prices

In an interview yesterday with Fox News’s Neil Cavuto, Bill O’Reilly claimed that his reporting intimidated oil company CEOs into lowering gasoline prices:

O’REILLY: I have guys inside the five major oil companies - my father used to work for one of those oil companies by the way - who have told me that in those meetings they look for every way to jack up oil prices after Katrina, every way, when they didn’t have to. They got scared because of my reporting and reporting of some others. They said, “Uh ho.”

CAVUTO: So wait a minute, you’re not, you’re taking credit for gas prices being down from where they are?

O’REILLY: I said my reporting and some reporting of others. They got scared.

So not only is Bill O’Reilly saving Christmas, he’s making it cheaper for you to get to the mall. Is there anything this guy can’t do?

Sorry, I meant to post this on the Open Thread.

Now, if someone could only get Somerby to internalize the truth of the Niger forgeries story so that he would quit spouting off about a subject he is 1/3 versed in.

And then he could get around to an actual apology.

Oh, indeed, Nash. Perfectly put.

Good for you Eriposte. People are reading your extensive reporting and the more that take notice, the better.

"I check for eriposte items at the left coaster every day."

"The extensive documentation assembled at this site will contribute, hopefully soon, to the prosecution of Bush, Cheney and their neoconster fellow criminals."

eriposte!!! The FBI has decided to reopen the investigation: http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/nation/la-na-niger3dec03,0,4700538.story?coll=la-home-headlines

Look at this, from the article:

"After talking with committee members, FBI officials decided to pursue "additional work" on the case, likely exploring the origins of the forgeries and whether the documents had been created specifically to help make the case for ousting Saddam Hussein.

"This is such a high-profile issue for a lot of reasons, and we think it's important to make sure there aren't lingering questions," said an aide to Sen. John D. Rockefeller IV, D-W. Va., vice chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee. "There's always a chance that you do a little more investigating and you uncover something you hadn't seen before or you hadn't realized.""

My personal belief is that your work has helped to make this happen. You did good!

With appreciation.
