Default recycling old news

Democrats once again trying to turn an old story into something to get their guy elected. The media is just co-operating.

Old news? How old? When did the investigation begin?

I thought this investigation was a result of the whistleblowers from last week?

Could you please proved proof that this is old news -because its all new to me

Default Explain your title

And so....where exactly does it say they are investigating BUSH like your title says?????

Bottom line is this: you wouldn't have seen an investigation like this in a Clinton administration. Just like you didn't see any investigations of the corporate financial scandals that were occurring under Clinton. Pres. Bush doesn't stand in the way of such investigations.

Default .:.

Clinton was investigated for a blowjob. This is a tad more serious. Take those blinders off your eyes and lay off the crystal meth.

Default Ho-hum

Quit joining in with the liberal press trying to recycle these old stories to help out Johnny Boy. Makes you look desperate. Would you rather Haliburton be investigated....or NOT be investigated.....if it looks like any wrong doing occurred? Are you guys EVER happy?????

They were cleared by the GAO months ago. The non-partisan GAO. The same GAO democrats used as a source whenever they said anything that put Bush in a negative light. That GAO. These are just recycled partisan allegations.

Default Well..

...Its not BUSH who is the target but his admin's involvement.

Secondly, anyone know why The Rev Ashcroft's FBI is investigating the Bush Admin? None of us knows why. So certainly its NEWS!! The story of Haliburton and favoritism is not A NEW story but these recent developments with the WB is a new development.

So, just like Sandy Berger, shouldn't we wait to see how it plays out? I remember the right on this forum going into "seizure" over Sandy Berger. So, lets all wait and see why the Rev Ashcroft is investigating his own ADMIN.

Default I love how the title of this thread misstates this story.

So much for a reliance on facts and objectivity from the left.

This is coming from the person who relies on Fox News and Right wing conspiracy theory websites
