From this dude? A self professed Anarcho Capitalist who pals around with Alex Jones and his ilk. You don't take these people seriously, do you Dan?

No bombshell revelations as far as I can see. Bush and crew are still a bunch of lying neo con war criminals who got off scott free.

It was all Obamas fault. We were attacked on 9/11 because BHO is a pussy and went to war in Iraq, because he's a tyrannical dictator. I know this to be true, because some guy who goes by the user name of "Total Patriot" told me so on a Tea Party blog. It HAS to be true, because patriots have honor and never lie.

Missed the first half. Recorded the rest. Will look for a rebroadcast. Only the foolish didn't see it for what it was at the time.

The upshot of the show was that it was an effort to ensure Saddam's oil was released into the world markets. There was a lot of (selectively edited) proof to underlie this assertion. You can be sure that Iraq would not have been invaded were it not for the fact that they controlled 10% of the world's oil. No news there.

I felt he sounded pretty dead on, you want to watch Rachel Maddow. Who is a leftwing loon without a balanced view.

Agreed about the oil Finn. It is a legit interest and paid for his attempts to destabilize things.

If you read the statements on Saddam by both Bush and Clinton it's obvious the plans were sitting on the shelf for a while. Our masters wanted him gone.

It is a great indictment of the MSM and the Democrats that there was NO effective anti-war voice in the media at the time. Most saw that position as a looser, and were not willing to be on the 'wrong' side of it, either public-approval wise, or circulation/ratings wise.

Joe Wilson, Phil Donohue and Dan Rather.......

And we know what happened to them.
