Air America supported with "dirty" money?

Well, who do you want to believe... right wing blogs and Newsmax or the investigators. The former, when not peddling stuff ranging from Vince Foster murder plots, Hillary lesbian tales, and Democrats being in league with Osama bin Laden, are saying it or the DOI, which denies they are investigating Air America Radio, that AAR has nothing to do with their investigation, and that there are no active leads in that direction.

Answer? The right wing blogs apparently.

Since when is the fact that a PIO (at any level) says something a guarantee of the truth?

When a government official tells you something, there's only one thing you can be sure of: that's what the government wants you to believe, to serve its own interests.

Keep this in mind. Always.

Too much X Files....

Personally, I'd believe the outcome of an investigation by
a Special Prosecutor. If he/she says all's OK, so be it.
But whoever it is needs to be reallllyyyy thorough. I'd
trust the outcome by an SP much, much more than, for example,
a Congressional Hearing!

Appoint a special prosecutor NOW! For any imagined offense by anybody. The trial lawyers need the work; they multiply like rats!</P>

Oooooh, so now the DOI is in on it too? The X Files & Friends is going to need a member roster soon. :)

Left, right, center...whatever. It's all a conspiracy.
We can't rest until there's a Special Prosecutor with a
desk in EVERY American home! Don't believe me? Ask
any Congressperson or personness....

Definitely Limbaugh, Hannity, Air America, CPB, NPR
all oughta be investigated! They're far, far too
successful and, in today's climate of political
correctness that's definitely suspicious!

Used to be America's national sport was baseball.

Now?

We should turn this all over to The Factor. :) Bill will get to the bottom of it.

That's been true for a long time now.

Ironic justice on a side note: The record industry in their zeal to stop wrongdoing sues file sharers for their criminal activity, turn around and take that settlement money and illegally pay off radio people to play their product. Winner: Lawyers.

Never watched it. My analysis is based on real life.
