NC Rep. Robin Hayes Claims New Evidence Linking Saddam to 9/11

This just happened on CNN. Carol Costello's jaw literally dropped.

Hayes made a passing comment on Saddam's involvement in 9/11 in his CNN appearance to defend Bush's "support my war" speech last night, and she called him on it!

Who's feeding the newscasters journalism and backbone pills all of a sudden?

I'll update a manuscript of the heated exchange when it hits the web, but cornered Hayes reiterated he's privy to all kinds of intelligence linking Saddam to 9/11 and the "evidence is clear." He wouldn't elaborate with details.

To press the point, CNN returned from break as...

Breaking News: NC Representative Robin Hayes moments ago claimed Iraqi Dictator Saddam Hussein Involved in 9/11. More to come as we investigate...

Uh huh. More to come.

Hehe, I wonder what will come of it.

Probably null zilch and nada, but still cool of CNN to take the guy on for trying to spout the same rhetoric without giving any evidence.

These politicians really think we'll take their 2 faced lying greedy backstabbing warmongering word for it?

Well, look at it this way. He picked up Edwards' seat, and to pay back the people who bought it for him, he's muddying the waters, and creating disinformation/lies/steaming piles of # that lead people astray.


HOORAY FOR REPUBLICANS!

Then Sen McCain came on and clarified there's NO LINK between Iraq and 9/11 and they read from the SENATE INTELLIGENCE REPORT climing NO LINK.



Write him and ask for the release of these secret 9/11 link details only backwater Republicans from North Carolina have.

If Rove ever gets off the phone chewing him out he might respond.

LIAR!

BWAHAHAHAHAHAH!


Seems like that whole Foot -> Mouth syndrome is catching on on the right hand side. Hey, who knows, maybe it's terminal?

One could only hope...

P.S:

Dude has Nascars in his publicity banner there. I wonder what sort of constituency he's going for.

Spot on! Grasping at straws is what I see. How stupid do they think the people are? Or more appropriately how stupid are some of these people in government??? Could probably do a better job, blindfolded and with one hand tied behind my back!

Here's a transcript of the exchange and a small video clip.

COSTELLO: But there is no...

HAYES: We have to do a good job explaining...

COSTELLO: ... evidence that Saddam Hussein was connected in any way to al Qaeda.

HAYES: Ma'am, I'm sorry, but you're mistaken. There's evidence everywhere. We get access to it, unfortunately others don't. But the evidence is very clear.

COSTELLO: What evidence is there?

HAYES: The connection between individuals who were connected to Saddam Hussein, folks who worked for him, we've seen it time and time again. But the issue is where are we now. Nobody disputes 9/11. They would do that again if not prevented. Preventing 9/11 wherever it might happen in America, winning the war overseas, not bringing it here to our shores, is the issue in that regard.

COSTELLO: Well, are you saying that Saddam Hussein had something to do with 9/11?

HAYES: I'm saying that Saddam Hussein -- and I think you're losing track of what we're trying to talk about here -- Saddam Hussein and people like him were very much involved in 9/11. Did he make the phone call and say...

COSTELLO: There's no evidence of that.

HAYES: Well, I'm sorry, you haven't looked in the right places.

If this guy has evidence he should really bring it forward because even the President has not seen it.

Indeed. Wish I saw this unfold live. Would be a nice spectacle.

Hayes' name should be added to the list of members of the current government due for incarceration.

Withholding of information of such vital interest to national security and such consequence to the forthcoming trial of Saddam Hussein has more than one element of treason to it.

Wonderful. A great asset of North Carolina he is, to be sure.

He's a yes-man. No surprise there.

I refused to vote for Liddy Dole (or her opponent) for that reason. She hasn't disappointed.

I love this...

Saddam Hussein and people like him were very much involved in 9/11.

Like him? What exactly does Hayes mean when he sez, and people like him?

Bottom line, the guy's just busy doin Bush's detail.

.
The mystical government information generator told him.

You kneel before the altar of scacred knowlege dispenser,
The incense burn and your mind is filled with visions.

Now he Knows for a FACT!

America has gone off the track of reality and into loo loo land.
.

what a lying piece of #... send him mail? try sending him a mail bomb... an e-mail bomb of course lol, let me clarify on that point.

It's amazing what folks will say or do.

He had to have known he stepped innit bigtime.
