In place of an earlier thread that was decried, I offer an amazing bit of speculation by josh Marshall... Talking Points Memo Guy

First we have Scott McCellan claiming we'd not known about any of this until 10 days ago. Nevermind Paul Bremer. And now we have Larry Di Rita saying that we knew about it the day we got to Al Qaqaa...

LIARS, but you knew that already.

"If the Di Rita hypothesis rests on the claim that the first US troops that visited al Qa Qaa found that the explosives had already been stolen or looted or otherwise secreted away. (He has, in fact, already said this.) And that would mean that the US government has known the explosives were missing for some eighteen months.

The problem is that the White House has spent the entire day claiming that they knew nothing about this until ten days ago, October 15th. Scott McClellan said this repeatedly during his gaggle with reporters this morning. Indeed, he went on to say the following: "Now [i.e., after the notification on October 15th], the Pentagon, upon learning of this, directed the multinational forces and the Iraqi survey group to look into this matter, and that's what they are currently doing."

LMAO! Josh, You Rock Man...

Drudge just opened a HUGE CAN OF LIES and you've ripped them a new one...

$70 Billion...

GOTV
