the sludge report

It’s almost as if… they WANT the terrorists to win!

me thinks Drudge will be getting payed a visit by some not so friendly Brits.
They take this stuff seriously.
Drudge just endangered part of the royal family.that’s a nono.
and please don’t attack me on this comment.

TO ANY AND ALL BRITISH SECRET SERVICE! Do us and the world a favour (please note the spelling), rendition Drudge. He’s a waste of blogspace.

Drudge has managed to p*ss off one of our few remaining allies, further sinking our standing in the world community. We’ve become gutter dwellers.

Indeed, a short walk in a dark alley time.

Now, which kids of important people from the US are over there ?

#1. Joel: Touche. Drudge is worse than sludge. This is serious stuff–I travel back and forth to Britain and Scotland quite regularly and I am willing to bet everything that it was Murdoch’s crappy, lousy newspaper or his Skye TV station, personnel who told that little sissy boy, Mattie aka Marie Drudge.

I just checked his site and he claims that Channel 4 in Britian is calling him a “hero”.

What a turd.

The UK relationship was the last special one to go I think, since Shahid Malik got targeted twice.

Dweller indeed.

So… Olbermann is making the situation better by furthering the discussion. At least he’s scoring some points against an irrelevant, partisan know-nothing like Drudge. That completely justifies his sensationalizing of this story. You can tell that he doesn’t want a lot of people learning this information, because it might be used by some retrograde, Murrow-wannabe demagogue for the wrong purposes…

Keeping troops out of harms way must be drudgery.

Sen Webb has a son over there.That’s it I think.I could be wrong about that though.

Their probably on their way right now.

if i had known, i would have reported it too. it’s called news and news should be reported. how many people here think that the nyt should have reported the warrantless wiretapping prior to the 04 election instead of after?

damn Xoites,I can’t call you X(for short) anymore.

I dare say the typical US criminal types driving things like this want the kid killed so they can try and whip up some hysteria in the UK to try and support the invasion of Iran or something ………

I know this is redundant, since we’re talking about Drudge here, but:

What. A. **DOUCHEBAG**!!!

This is just one more piece of evidence to show how little these wingnut righties really care about the military and national security. More than that, it shows how little they *understand* it. They will jeopardize anything and anyone just to get people to pay them some attention, probably with absolutely no idea until after the fact just how badly they screwed up (and maybe still no idea even then).

By that logic my mother who was a radio news reporter should have reported that D DAY was about to happen. It came accross the wire service immeadiatly followed by:

“KILL THAT! KILL THAT! KILL THAT!”

I disagree, reporters have a responsibility to keep information that will endanger people out of the news.

I wonder where the Bush bitches TWINS are at? were they not in south america? oh thats right , they were kicked out via the goverment who asked them to leave.

Ok so you a blue blood dude go into the dirt face first and JUST where is the USA president daughters and Nephews and soon to be son in laws? Why havint they joined the rank and fight this ? WAR ON TERROR?
its can make a person laugh with contempt really.

Drudge is a narcisistic moron. Hope the Sandbaggers get him. Nail his arse to the wall boys!

whatever,, its a dumb prince.. we fought a war with that crown because kings and queens and the lot are a very, very stupid thing indeed.

he looks like a total tool in that picture mind you..

I suppose we can look forward to Congress condemning the Drudge report for this?

Well?

My point is it is beyond being discrete. Everybody knows now.

Don’t be too hard on Drudge — he probably did it for greed, unlike Chevron Rice, who blew the Al Qaeda mole the British flipped, to the New York Times, which dutifully printed his name in their Paper of Disrepute.

She does it for treason; Drudge does it because he has the personal maturity of flounder.

Discreet.

Well, ya know, furriners don’t count.

Reminds me of the sketch on the Tonight Show where Geraldo identified Ann Frank’s hiding place on the news.

This has been reported all day today. Keith was the last to report it.

AUSSIE mag New Idea bosses say they had no idea they broke a media blackout on Prince Harry fighting on the front line in Afghanistan……..

The Drudge Report wrongly claimed a “world exclusive” when its website yesterday screamed - “British Royal Prince Harry has been fighting in Afghanistan since late December - and has been directly involved in gunbattle”.

Nice one, Drudge.

Uh, excuse you, but there is a big difference between news about illegal activities that the public deserves to know, and “news” about the movement of celebrities whose safety (and often *life*) would be put in danger by the report. Perhaps this slipped your mind, but when news got around a year or so ago about Harry having enlisted in the army, Al Qieda mouth pieces said that he would be targeted if deployed to the middle east.

Are you crazy? They threw Giraldo Rivera out of Afghanistan for giving away our troop position, and do you think it was alright to out Valerie Plame?

Loose lips sink ships.

Its time for Drudge to sleep with the fishes.

Drudge was waterboarded for the information.

As the right-wing keeps saying - we’re in a time of war!

For revealing the position of our allies against our enemies, Drudge should be charged with treason, hauled out before the firing squad and shot!

Any arguments?

In that case i will have to allow his logic to elude me.

No, no, no–Drudge loves the US troops. He could care less about those Brits after they went and leaked the Downing Street Memo stuff without consulting him first.

My point is that sensationalization is a process of maintenance and facilitation of a topic. He is just as guilty as the others. He might say “Good night and good luck” at the end of his shows, but he’s just as much of a shill as O’Reilly at the end of the day. If he really cared about bettering the situation, he wouldn’t further the discussion. The truth is, however, that he doesn’t care. He and his bosses are after ratings. Screw him.

Oh, you are the guy who shows up and rants at Keith no matter what. I remember you now.

Besides, if the Prince wants to help stop terrorism, he’s apparently in the wrong country.

Newsweek points to another connection between Bayoumi and Bandar [Bush]: “About two months after al-Bayoumi began aiding Alhazmi and Almihdhar, NEWSWEEK has learned, al-Bayoumi’s wife began receiving regular stipends, often monthly and usually around $2,000, totaling tens of thousands of dollars. The money came in the form of cashier’s checks, purchased from Washington’s Riggs Bank by Princess Haifa bint Faisal, the daughter of the late King Faisal and wife of Prince Bandar, the Saudi envoy who is a prominent Washington figure and personal friend of the Bush family. The checks were sent to a woman named Majeda Ibrahin Dweikat, who in turn signed over many of them to al-Bayoumi’s wife (and her friend), Manal Ahmed Bagader….”

According to then-Sen. Bob Graham (D-FL), who served as a co-chair of the 9/11 Congressional inquiry that preceded the 9/11 Commission, during the period of [Nine-eleven terrorists that Bayoumi sponsored] Alhazmi and Almihdhar’s arrival in the US, Bayoumi had an “unusually large number of telephone calls with Saudi government officials in both Los Angeles and Washington.” (Graham and Nussbaum, 2004, pp. 168-169)
