Therefore, name the source and it will sink or swim with the source.<BR/><BR/>That particular quote was tangential anyway-- the point of the post is that whether he said it or not, this administration seems to be <I>acting</I> that way. The coaching of witnesses violates one of the first standards of legal ethics, and the rest of the post is to point out that this sort of 'ends justifies the means' approach to the law is not just isolated to this incident, as serious as it is, but rather seems to have become a <I>modus operandi</I> in this administration.Eli Blakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00792743206074537073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14231145.post-1142435305245515772006-03-15T07:08:00.000-08:002006-03-15T07:08:00.000-08:00That is my point Eli.

My mom was a John Bircher and I could see how they were overreacting to heresay without substantiation back in the 1970's. I am telling you that right now the Democrats are so paranoid with conspiracy theories about the Bush administration that any evil heard is considered fact until proven otherwise. It was the same way with the John Birchers against everyone else.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14231145.post-1142397147954684492006-03-14T20:32:00.000-08:002006-03-14T20:32:00.000-08:00Mark:Keep in mind before you assume that Capitol H...Mark:<BR/><BR/>Keep in mind before you assume that <I>Capitol Hill Blue</I> is a 'Liberal' site, that they were the ones first reported on Kathleen Willie.<BR/><BR/>It's true that it is unsubstantiated elsewhere, which is why I made the point of naming the publisher in the post.Eli Blakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00792743206074537073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14231145.post-1142362689190009242006-03-14T10:58:00.000-08:002006-03-14T10:58:00.000-08:00Eli:The story you referenced in the Capital Hill B...Eli:<BR/>The story you referenced in the Capital Hill Blue was quite telling. It referenced only heresay and nothing was proven. The reason mainline news media don't report stories like this one is because it can't be authenticated.<BR/><BR/> Also, the author of the story obviously has grudge enough to use foul language in his story. I always do not give any credence to authors of stories that cannot control their urge to swear. Only people without brains have to swear. The last person I allowed to swear at me was my high school football coach and I have never put up with it again. <BR/><BR/>The Capital Hill Blue has common swear words on its home page. I wouldn't trust them for the time of day. Call me prudish if you want, but I never see that kind of language on conservative sites that I visit.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14231145.post-1142361935704160072006-03-14T10:45:00.000-08:002006-03-14T10:45:00.000-08:00well done, as always!well done, as always!jen https://www.blogger.com/profile/16019224415924927662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14231145.post-1142354352696397262006-03-14T08:39:00.000-08:002006-03-14T08:39:00.000-08:00Talk about {eViL eMpIrE}.Talk about <I>{eViL eMpIrE}.</I>Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16583773305351498372noreply@blogger.com
