European Tribune - Comments - Open Thread

I hate that I am about to tell you this, because I hate that I'm paying any attention to this story at all.

Also on Palfrey's list of customers who could be potential witnesses are a Bush administration economist, the head of a conservative think tank, a prominent CEO, several lobbyists and a handful of military officials.

There are about nine million reader comments on the story saying "post the list."

I sure do hope that's Bill Kristol they're talking about.

There are many, many, many, many possibilities conservative think-tank leaders in Washington.

Re: Connect these dots (none / 1)

True! But there's no one I'd grant the spotlight to more than Kristoll.

They can't reveal anyone on this list - losing the suspense means losing the audience.

you are the media you consume.

Re: Connect these dots (4.00 / 2)

The way to do this is to slowly leak the information. It's probably a long list! But if they keep everything inside, they risk being out-scooped.

Re: Connect these dots (4.00 / 5)

I had a half-written comment about turning the list into a prime time drama, but my self-esteem suddenly evaporated so I didn't finish it.

you are the media you consume.

Re: Connect these dots (4.00 / 3)

Only Jah knows how many comments and blog posts I have deleted in the same fashion.
