I guess she's free to wiretap her subjects, then.  Do they ever plot
terrorist attacks, or most just fart?

I actually thought it might be fun to set up a web cam so I could spy on
my subjects while I was at work. Because you know, snoring is just so
thrilling.

An interesting development:  There are reports/rumors that one of the
targets of Bush's unauthorized wiretaps was CNN reporter Christiane
Amanpour.  Coincidentally or not, bugging her phones would also
necessarily involve bugging the phones of her husband, Jamie Rubin,
State Dept spokesman under Clinton, who also happened to be a senior
adviser to the Kerry presidential campaign.

Hmm...

An interesting note:  The baseless innuendo of that wiretapping was 
removed from the MSNBC website.  Probably because it was totally 
fictitious and without a shred of evidence to support it.  (Other than, 
perhaps, Danny Rather and Marla Mapes who used a 1990s IBM Selectric to 
produce the "report"???)  And, by the way, the wiretaps were 
authorized.  They just were without court order.

Anyone have a url for this "reports/rumor"? My keyword search found only
stuff from 2004.

Try entering Christane Amanpour into the search box in Google News.

Certainly sounds like there's not any public solid evidence for such a claim
at this time.  I'd like to think that even klg would acknowledge that, if
the Bush admin actually did such a thing absent extremely compelling
evidence that Amanpour was a sleeper operative or something, that would 
be very troubling.

Here is what I gathered:

"potential scandal that, if true"

There's a lot of that going around. 
klg
response 215 of 404: Mark Unseen   Jan 5 17:51 UTC 2006

A lot of "potential," perhaps, but a dearth of truth.

Do you have evidence which indicates the rumors are false?  I'm not aware
of any.
johnnie
response 217 of 404: Mark Unseen   Jan 5 18:50 UTC 2006

At this point, the most that can be said is that certain news
organizations take the rumor seriously enough to investigate it.

response 218 of 404: Mark Unseen   Jan 5 19:05 UTC 2006

"Do you have evidence which indicates the rumors are false?  I'm not aware
 of any."

That seems to me a rather weak reason to spend a lot of time on a rumor.

It certainly seemed a bad idea with the rumor of the survival of those 12
miners. 

The media should *investigate* rumors, not blab them around.

ia lied, people died.  The media lied, people died.  The media lied, peo


The New York Times, The Washington Post, CNN, etc., etc. reported the 
12 miners alive.  The lied.  They must apologize.  The owners and 
editors must resign.

If *they* should resign, so should Bush and his whole war cabal.

response 221 of 404: Mark Unseen   Jan 5 20:48 UTC 2006

Bush should not resign, he should be impeached and put on trial.  It is 
Attorney General Gonzalez who should resign, or be fired, for 
expressing the legal opinion that it is okay to wiretap american 
citizens without their knowledge or a judge's consent.

Re #218: I agree with you.  But I'm not the one who claimed that the
allegations were untrue; I'll agree that they are inadequately substantiated
but that's hardly the same thing.

The owners of CNN (i.e. everybody who owns a share of AOL-Time Warner Turner)
should resign?  From what?

It sure is easy to lay blame on one person and not on ourselves, isn't
it Josh?

What can the ourselves do about the egregious mistakes of Bush, except speak
out to the extent one finds comfortable, and vote?

Worse than what?  Being incinerated?

Yes because so many Americans were being incinerated before Bush took
office...
