"Liar, Liar" is more correct than you know. The Post appears caught in a lie in this story.
I don't think so ConfedY. The article makes it clear there were other groups involved in determining the nature of the trailers, but it is even more clear that the group with the negative answer got no air-time whatsoever. It's cheery-picking, it's being dishonest, it's lying. Don't blame the media for a report you don't like, blame your president for misleading you.
Hey look - out first troll!! Oh honey, isn't it wonderful! Go get the kids - they should really see this.
"our" - I meant "our"
It may be cherry picking or it may be listening to different viewpoints and believing one over the other. That does not make it lying no matter how many times you scream liar.
Hey Mishu,
It may be cherry picking or differing viewpoints or a lot of other things, but it follows a very specific pattern of duplicity. Compare it to the infamous 16 words / Joe Wilson and you'll find a lot of stunning similarities. Ya know, expert testimonials saying that some event's initial appearances are incorrect get shelved because they don't fit the desired propoganda.
After a while, you do the math and realize that not everyone of these "figurative" mistakes can just be mistakes, no matter what an incompetent douchebag W. is.
Now shoo - back to your alternate reality!
You mean how Joe Wilson confirmed that Saddam was out yellow cake shopping? Does seem to jibe with the 16 words. Backing off on those words so quickly was an incompetent move. Read the first three paragraphs from here to see who went shopping:

They backed of those words for a reason. They were in the White House, they knew the truth, they backed off b/c they knew the jig was up. Once Hitchens is on the White House payroll and privy to the information that they have, then maybe I'll listen to him. And glad to hear that you too recognize that they are incompetent.
Ahem, Creature. Fitzgerald backed off the claim that the White House misled the public on the uranium/Niger debacle.

The Bush lied meme is falling apart so fast that even WaPo had to cover the story.
What I find funny about you guys is on one hand, Bush is a bumbling fool that can't tie his own shoes but clever enough to buy Chris Hitchens and bury/manipulate evidence in an devious effort to boost Halliburton stock. Which is it?
Oooh! Look what I missed while I was at lunch!
Frankly mishu, it probably doesn't take anything close to "clever" to buy Hitchens. A carton of smokes and a bottle of ripple might do it. So therefore the answer to your question: "Bush is a bumbling fool that can't tie his own shoes," and a hat tip to you for writing it for me.
Hey mishu,
Exactly how do you see that as "Fitzgerald backed off the claim that the White House misled the public on the uranium/Niger debacle."
Here's the correction from your link:
That sentence said Libby "was to tell Miller, among other things, that a key judgment of the NIE held that Iraq was 'vigorously trying to procure' uranium."
Instead, the sentence should have conveyed that Libby was to tell Miller some of the key judgments of the NIE "and that the NIE stated that Iraq was 'vigorously trying to procure' uranium."
The clarification was the words "among other things." Hardly backing off of the 16 words claim.
