Bravo but....

Bravo on your engaging debate with the ever popular mayor of London. It is sad that pure entertainment value trumps news. Then again it seems that much of the media has been lulled to sleep by repetition of the same malicious lies. I guess if said enough, it becomes accepted as fact.

That does not exempt you, however, from my concerns with your remarks delivered at a fundraiser on Long Island last fall. I thought that your explanation of what has happened vis a vis Iraq was a mere repeition of the Bush administration's ongoing misinformation, disinformation and lies. Sadly, the Bush administration's actions makes it a poor candidate for lecturing the rest of the world. If they are so careless with the 'facts', why should we expect anything better from the rest of the world?
