What? Quoting the AP report on Condi's travel plans? Disagreeing with Rue's interpretation of the G8 conversation? Expressing an opinion about her motives? Gee, I thought having an opposing point of view might be allowed in a discussion forum.

Hell, I would argue that one needed shooting most of all....

Dayve - after an intense discussion with the squid he warns he will ink you the next time you compare him to the general electorate ;)
BDM -how about impeachment for editing/destroying goverment inteligence to reflect his own personal wishes? for anyone else that would be....treason
oh and Geezer? have you suddenly become psychic enough to read the minds of all these "heads of government" and insert their ACTUAL thoughts? No? then you really should not assume but take comments at face value until such time as those actually involved either defend or explain said comments ;)
You know what the chain of command is here? Its the chain I go get to beat you with to show you whose in command!

If Bush edited/destroyed government intelligence to reflect his own personal wishes, that is certainly an impeachable offense. So why is he still President? Is it because a case cannot be built on the evidence at hand, or is there overwhelming evidence and nobody is willing to bring it forth. Or is it because Bush's secret police have destroyed all evidence and have coerced all witnesses into silence (that was a shout-out to all the conspiracy theorists on this board
).Oh and for the record the shortening of my alias would be BDN, BDM is the new nickname I picked up in Rue's playground. Unless,of course, you meant to use BDM which is certainly your prerogative.

De-lurking to stir stuff up.

Huh? What?
Oh yes, certainly possible, I'd say.

No. I've become literate enough to read their comments in context with the circumstances which surround them and make reasonable assumptions as to what they are thinking. Sort of like the Washington Post did when they noted:Then Bush turns serious, asking Blair about comments apparently made about the Middle East crisis by U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan, another guest at the summit. Hardly mindreading, just obvious from the words and context. If you'd like, from now on I could include the word "apparently".
I note you addressed this criticism only to me, and not to Rue, who also makes assumptions based on her understanding. I assume (there it is again!) that this was an oversight on your part, and that you will take her to task in another post.

I would take Rue to task, Geezer, but Rue did use words like "apparently" and did not attempt to quantify the remarks made, merely commented on the conversation. You however added your own interpratation into the actual text....
and BDN (stress on the N!!) apologies...I hate it when my own name (or alias) is mispelled.

I see you've been taking that selective reading course.
Here's Rue's first cut at interpretation, by editing the actual text while presenting it as quotes, with her comments as she entered them, in parentheses, and her emphasis, underlined:
Quote:
Ah. But it is so much LESS than that. Especially re Lebanon.
Bush - what about Kofi?
Blair - you need to get the int'l presence
Bush - I think Condi's going pretty soon (I guess he needed to check w/ her before he said that - as she hasn't yet seen fit)
Blair - that's all that matters
Bush - "they" need to get Syria to get Hezbollah
Blair - (confused by the non-sequitor) Syria?
Bush - I felt like telling Kofi to make something happen
I could go on through a few more posts, but what's the point? Allisa, if you're going to set yourself up as a moderator, at least you could try to appear non-biased.
