Read what is in that url I posted. You probably didn't read it. Who would? But if you read it you will find that it's quite hilarious. And it even works.

Guess he wanted to join the DC Madam...

Again, how convenient.

You need to catch up. The "sources" almost certainly were from the administration or some attachment to such. The administration wasn't denying the "sources" information given to ABC. They were loving it so they could get their war on.

The bentonite question has been answered. You'll have to do your homework, unless someone else is more forgiving than me.

Now we know the validity of you wife's thoughts about your intelligence.

Cause I was mystified by your long URLs where none could be, or because I think bragging you intend to shoot Federal agents is silly?

I mean it could be either one, or several other things, your choice. Sometimes I am sure the entire world was created (or evolved) to point out the insufficiencies of my intelligence.

Marriage between one man and one woman surely was.

(Like I said, my wife has already been persuaded about gay marriage, she says "next time I'll be sure to marry a man!

But I already told you that.

We figured it was person or people working at bioweapons lab or contractor, with Ft. Detrick and Johns Hopkins coming up tops of our list. That was back in 2001-2!

No wonder this case went unsolved. It wouldn't justify war on Afghanistan or Iraq.

Here are some excerpts from LBO Talk list in 2002.

http://mailman.lbo-talk.org/2002/2002-March/007635.html

>>And what will the FBI be allowed to reveal? Is it the lone wolf or small

group at a lab like at Ft. Detrick, or is it more blowback from US military

and intelligence ties with Saudi Arabia (with the UK being the source for

the Ames strain )? I believe the US regime wants us to believe the lone wolf

theory but doesn't want to solve it. And since this would make them look as

incompetent as the idea that Al Qaeda got US anthrax from the Saudi

military, it now wants us to believe OBL spontaneously produced it in

Afghanistan. How very convenient.<<

>>Let me chime in here with the theory about the Detrick pathology head. If

the theory that it is the one guy or small group in the US, then the very

nature of the stuff used means it has to be someone able to get it from a

place like Ft. Detrick.<<

First CBS Evening News editing out McCain's embarassing comments, now this. We are getting more honesty out of the truthiness bunch.

Another thing to look into might be who was investing in the companies who controlled the contracts for bioweapons vaccines. The list of companies doing so is rather short, and goes back to private equity parasites like, surprise, surprise, Carlyle Group!

I read it, it was very funny, but it's not a URL!

Wait a minute, okay, mabe it is a URL, but it's not a clickable link. That's what I'm talking about that you can't have here.

But anyway, I'm a big tinyURL fan myself. How is it useful here? You have to cutn'paste URLs into your browser, or attach them to sig, right? No "links" in the text.

Although the "line-break" thing might be one reason to use them. Is that what you had in mind?

I don't recall seeing the results of the official analysis of the anthrax - has anyone found this in new reports or elsewhere?

Surely it would have been known very early on whether or not it could have come from US government stocks, or whether foreign provenance was indicated. If most all anthrax is the same and nothing can be said about this, then the government should have clearly said so.

As you are well aware, life is a series of multiple choices. I suspect you like essay tests.

You need to catch up. The "sources" almost certainly were from the administration or some attachment to such. The administration wasn't denying the "sources" information given to ABC. They were loving it so they could get their war on.

Kitt, ABC's initial reporting was that their sources were saying lab tests at USAMRIID had found bentonite, and that the administration was denying this.

See Glenn's post which covers this in some detail:

http://www.salon.com/opinion/greenwald/2007/04/11/abc_response/

Glenn points out that:

Clearly, Ross' allegedly four separate sources had to have some specific knowledge of the tests conducted and, if they were really "well-placed," one would presume that meant they had some connection to the laboratory where the tests were conducted -- Ft. Detrick. That means that the same Government lab where the anthrax attacks themselves came from was the same place where the false reports originated that blamed those attacks on Iraq.

It is possible that the the sources at USAMRIID in Ft. Detrick were also connected with the administration, and knowing that the attacks may have come from Ft. Detrick makes the possibility of those connections even more tantalizing -- but ABC does not seem to have had information, at that time, connecting Ft. Detrick with the attacks.

This story by Glenn reminds me of the 1970s when Geraldo was going around to colleges with his Kennedy conspiracy theories.

The most likely story is this man was mentally ill. However you cannot put a mentally person involuntarily in a psychiatric unit unless they are found to be a danger to society.

As I remember the Anthrax stories it was pretty quickly denied they had anything to so with Iraq.

I do remember seeing some mediacoverage early on in Iraq when reporters were speculating about the so-called chemical weapons found by the U.A. military. It was pretty funny,as the barrels the so-called chemical were all rusted out.

Compare the treatment of ABC's false anthrax stories to that of the CBS stories reported by Dan Rather on the letters supposed to have been written by Col. Jerry Killian on Bush's National Guard Service.
