I stopped reading this article after that passage. Reporting without sources/citations accusation of high treason from a UK MP seems a bit....mad. The fact that they wrote "reportedly" change nothing to it. They did report on allegations of high treason without a single element of proof. I was not impressed the first time you cited StrategyPage, in fact I found doubtful the reasonning, but this is laughtable.
Let me make the following paraphrase : "it is reported all americans are KluKlux Klan supporters" Then me asking "but General Woundwort, why do you burn nigers ?".
Such a STUPID statement and grave accusation based on nothing is as stupid as the statement on the UK minister. Hell, from what I know, you could be of african origin.
But anyway, thanks for the article. It helped me to remind that you sometime need to pay to get quality news or analysis. A pity. Well, suit yourself. If you had finished the article, you would have noted that they put the time frame as to when we will know if Iraq still had WMD even sooner than I did - about September. Well, the truth will out sooner or later, to somebody's grief - Bush's or his enemies. In the meantime, I'll go back to my Highliner Mod and let this thread pass - the tone of discussion here is a bit ugly, and the possibilites for constructive dialogue seemingly nil.
