Your request assumes that "intent" was necessary for the administration's actions to be considered illegal. Do you have any proof that this requirement exists? If so, produce it.
The first two paragraphs of the original poster's article are proof that the adminstration's actions are illegal...
Please respect the thread topic. It is illegal to purchase "covert propaganda".
We are aware that if the administration follows the law then it's unlikely it will be accused of illegal activity. Are you trying to give us a civics lesson? Or are you campaigning for a "Master of the Obvious"...
Yes, I read the article:
Federal auditors said today that the Bush administration had violated the law...
Congress tried to clarify the ban on "covert propaganda" in a spending bill signed by Mr. Bush in May. The law says that no federal money can be used to produce or distribute a...
I agree. I guess I was expecting the WSJ crowd to be more in sync with the current administration's expectation for speedy results in Iraq. I was shocked at the poll results.
Gorillas using tools? Hmm, what's particularly newsworthy about that?
Now if biologists observed Democrats using tools that would simply be astonishing. As opposed to Democrats being tools, that is.
GOP imploding: I see no reason to believe that will be happening any time soon. By "soon" I'll venture to say between now and the 2008 Presidential election.
We might see some of the faces change in the next few months. However the GOP has been amazingly successful at promoting their cause...
3,136 people have voted so far (as of 5:17 PM ET)
12 months or less: 27 votes (1%)
Between one and five years: 653 votes (21%)
Between five and 10 years: 725 votes (23%)
Iraq won't be stable and democratic in the next decade: 1731 votes (55%)
Not a particularly auspicious...
If your sister decided to go ahead make sure she negotiates placement of the tower such that, when she decides to sell the house, she can split the property in two and retain ownership of the land that contains the tower. Instant cash flow generator for life.
Thoughtful possibilities EagleKeeper, I appreciate them.
Regarding #1: it's difficult to imagine how the US could crack down harder.
One option is to use a *vastly* larger force so that we could apply more pressure to more places simultaneously. I can't imagine the current administration...

Body weight is genetically determined, as tightly regulated as height.
Genes control not only how much you eat but also the metabolic rate at which you burn food.
When it comes to eating, free will is an illusion.
Now where is that box of KrizpyKremes?
Why should the neighbors "pitch in"? None of Iraq's neighbors ever requested that Iraq be invaded.
What do you mean by "faux alarmism" and "crocidile tears"? The Saudis seem to be expressing a legitimate concern that events in Iraq might destablize their country and other countries in the...
Let me see if I understand the train of thought here:
Some nations decide to invade Iraq to oust its leadership and replace that leadership. (Let's ignore the justification given for these decisions. I think it's fair to say we agree that one key goal of invaders was to oust Iraq's...
"Let's hope that happens."
Huh? "Hope"?
The plan as it is unfolding isn't showing promising results. The insurgents are as deadly as ever, the ability of the Iraqis to defend themselves is wishful thinking at best, and the nascent Iraqi military and police are riddled with insurgents...
Saudi Warns U.S. That Iraq May Face Disintegration

WASHINGTON, Sept. 22 - Prince Saud al-Faisal, the Saudi foreign minister, said Thursday that he had been warning the Bush administration in recent days that Iraq was hurtling toward...
There seems to be a lot of lag time between new posts and the time those posts appear in the search engine. I wonder how frequently the board updates its search database.
I had the same thing happen a couple of times Wednesday or Thursday. A modal dialog box popped up presented an error message similar to the one you've described.
THis hasn't happened since then.
