And et AL did not report on it; they twisted it into something that would serve their ends.

They knew very well it would be leaked and intended for it to be leaked.
Someone in the White House (Obama's advisors are truly incompetent) thought this would suppress attendance at the tea parties. And who knows, maybe it did deter some people from coming out. Even so, attendance is simply amazing...and, as someone said, without any ACORN buses either.

Who leaked it? The answer:

*We've established a foreign terrorist asset tracking center at the Department of the Treasury to identify and investigate the financial infrastructure of the international terrorist networks.* (September 24, 2001, George W. Bush, President of the United States)

*We have begun to act to block assets to seize books, records and evidence and to follow audit trails to track terror cells poised to do violence to our common interests.* (November 7, 2001, Paul O'Neill, Secretary of the United States Treasury)

I disagree. I think it was leaked
increase the outrage and boost attendance at the protests. It certainly got a lot of people here up in arms.

I did not say Rush & Co. leaked it.
Roger Hedgecock. Are you saying the Obama administration, who had no part in doing the study (these things take time folks) were intelligent enough to anonymously distribute it to someone in the blogosphere close enough it's epicenter to get noticed but not so far away that it would be discounted automatically? If so, you attribute far more intelligence to them than most of the posters here.

I have seen no outrage over the previous similar releases regarding rightwing extremists or the leftwing extremists or the Muslim extremists here before when those reports came out. Why the outrage now?

Interesting how it was leaked to the press
These types of studies are typically not for public consumption, but the timing of this one was just perfect for some manufactured outrage based on intentional misconstruing of the contents of the study.

Pure garbage. I actually think the repubs leaked that...sm
personal baloney about Sarah to gain her the sympathy vote.

Sounds like an excuse for it being okay for Obama to have leaked this...nm

Your friend Obama does not want that part leaked.

It was leaked to the Wall Street Journal, so I'm not sure what your point is.
Assuming you have one?
