NSA Takeover Secret govt agency kept intel from FBI about 9/11 hijackers, for money & power to spy on all. The upshot is that these non-elected us govt agents were able to convince our Congress that they weren't to blame for keeping intel about 9/11 terrorists living in usA for over a year from FBI. Instead NSA chief convinced us Congress that the NSA could have prevented 9/11 if they had more money and power to spy on everyone in usA. Now they have it.

Media Matters - NPR's Liasson falsely claimed distortion-laden McCain ad - 0 views

  •  
    Summary: On NPR's Morning Edition, Mara Liasson asserted that a new McCain campaign ad "catalogued all of the false or sexist or awful things that Democrats and Obama supporters have said about [Gov.] Sarah Palin." In fact, the ad did not "catalogue" any "false" statements the Obama campaign or other Democrats have made about Palin and, as FactCheck.org noted, the ad "distorts" each of the three Obama campaign statements it uses "to make the case" that Sen. Barack Obama is "being 'disrespectful' of Palin."
