ChadTower:
Iran doesn't control their Media. I control their media.
Iran is the DEVIL!

fredster, Dan Rather resigned...and furthermore, if you think "Gannon" has any decency, I have to ask if you've seen the photos he advertised of him urinating from his 8+ inch cannon? You just defended a man-whore...hehe.

No way is Dan Rather's ineptness as bad as the White House's manufacture and subsequent cover up of an absolutely fake/staged/propaganda reporter. Dan Rather's name is Dan Rather, we know who he is. He didn't create the memo, he failed to check it thouroughly and he was held responsible. If you think there is some sort of moral equivalence, then we'll just have to agree to disagree.

Dan Rather was a media ICON with 30+ years of hard journalism experience. He did not 'fail to check thoroughly'. Dan Rather and the producers of that show were complicit in the deception all along. There is no other plausible explanation. An entire group of people at the top of their profession do not suddenly forget the basic tenets of their profession right in the middle of what may be the biggest story of their collective career.

MrC,
Dan Rather "retired" / not resigned. The official line is he retired.

You don't have undisputed fact to back that up? What would be the advantage?
This just proves that you think the administration is so stupid as to set up a "fake"reporter for one session. I mean dude, you are seriously underestimating the Bush team badly. This is a mistake you have made over and over and over. Think about that dude. Think about what you are saying.

He wanted to hit Bush so badly he couldn't see straight. He put out a 1/2 baked story just to tilt a close election for his side using his power in the media days before the national election.
Gannon said that the left was "detached from reality" as he framed a question.
Huh, which one is worse? A man asking a question, or a man making up a story?
You tell me chuckles.

I do not doubt this was an accadent.
I also do not doubt that a missle will be fired eventually.
We left the gold reserve, when Europe started cashing in gold markers. Then we make a deal with the saudis that oil can only be purchased with dollars.
So now the U.S. dollar is backed by oil. (For example, for Japan to buy oil, they need U.S. dollars, so they have to trade with us, so by default we have positioned the dollar to be backed by oil.)
Democrats and Republicans both know the truth in this, and they are both acting like Iran has only one reason to build nuclear reacotors.
Iran has an agreement to provide energy for Russia, which is hungry for nuclear power. Russia, however, doesn't want that power produced on their own realestate. They aren't good at it. It kills people. Their people.
Having said that, the reactors they have, would be very helpful in a nuclear weapons program.
Once the middle-east has nukes, they can decide to sell oil for "basketed currency" meaning the Euro AND the dollar.
This will flip the cart on our oil backed money. This war was never about oil, but about gold. LOL
Both sides of the fence, as far as the uneducated American masses go, are short sighted as to what is going on.
