- marabout40, on 07/19/2008, -4/+92Hmmm. Not so sure that was a mistake on the part of that employee. :D Hee hee.
- SheilaNoya, on 07/19/2008, -6/+68This story just put a huge smile on my face.
Once again, the bumbling fools in the Bush Administration blow it and prove how utterly incompetent they are at everything they do.
A story meant only for "internal" distribution gets sent to "international" distribution. I love it! - rebrane, on 07/19/2008, -3/+62Imagine if it was the other way around -- if Maliki had blasted Obama's plan and said it was irresponsible and wrong for Iraq. You can bet the White House would be blasting -that- article around till November.
- AAK15, on 07/19/2008, -4/+59lol its amazing how the simplest thing, such as email, perplexes this administration.
- Zaxcomp, on 07/19/2008, -0/+41So they have an "email all the media button"? That sounds like a terrible idea.
- sachinag, on 07/19/2008, -3/+36Honestly, this is shameful that it's not the lead story on CNN.com right now. al-Maliki endorsed Obama's plan; is McCain going to say he knows better than the elected head of the sovereign Iraqi government? As pointed out by Ezra Klein, you know this would be the top story if it were the other way around: http://www.prospect.org/csnc/blogs/ezraklein_archi ...
- wisefool9, on 07/19/2008, -4/+35Yeah sounds more like the move of someone who grew a conscience.
- alapoet, on 07/19/2008, -3/+33Give 'em enough rope!
- inactive, on 07/19/2008, -1/+27Does anybody also think that this shouldn't really be described as a "major" white house blunder? I mean, compared to their usual ***** ups (Iraq, Katrina, Jeff Gannon, etc) this is really mild in comparison.
- dumpyhumpy, on 07/19/2008, -3/+28Bush and Co should just step down now. They're just wasting time and making halfass politically-weighted decisions.
- zephyear, on 07/19/2008, -1/+25help i am not good with computer how did this get here
- oohdoiloveyou, on 07/19/2008, -3/+26Even if the MSM wanted to bury the Maliki news, this additional White House episode will continue to call attention to the original story making it extra newsworthy
- mousers1968, on 07/19/2008, -1/+18Here are some places that we can contact the MSM to see if they might think about coverage. The more we hound the more the meat sticks talk. I thought I would add fox for giggles

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,77538,00.html - jaxter2010, on 06/17/2009, -0/+17This is why its important that our president knows how to use the internet.
- TeddySanFran, on 07/19/2008, -1/+18Just goes to show how the MSM gets its story tips: they are White House stenographers, and do little reporting themselves.
- mousers1968, on 07/19/2008, -2/+16I feel confident this one will work its way through at least the Sunday talk shows-
It goes along with the Republican strategist that just stated "we're F%$*ed." It is a good Day today. - zephyear, on 07/19/2008, -0/+14" The same plan Obama now says he never said. "
what the *****? did you just make that ***** up?
because i followed the entire primary season AND 16 MONTHS WAS HIS POSITION THROUGH ALL OF IT - inactive, on 07/19/2008, -0/+14This is almost a relief that nothing worse happened. They didn't accidentally nuke England or email a declaration of war to the Chinese.
- AxmxZ, on 07/19/2008, -1/+15The Mole (White House).
- zephyear, on 07/19/2008, -0/+14no, it's always been 16 months
from the start of the primaries in january, it was 16 months
it's still 16 months
you're an idiot. - borez, on 07/19/2008, -0/+13Just where is this "send to everybody I shouldn't " email button, I can't seem to find it on my client.
- RAGEdemon, on 07/19/2008, -3/+16Epic Fail.
- vkiperman, on 07/19/2008, -2/+15Accident? No. Freudian.
- FrenchAnarchy, on 07/19/2008, -0/+13Maybe not a good move to bring up Alzheimer's when the candidate you support is into his 70's...
- DooM, on 07/19/2008, -0/+13Wrong wrong wrong, Dragular. What Obama said was that his GOAL was to get them out in 16 months but that if commanders on the ground told him that it wasn't safe for our troops to depart on that timetable that his immediate concern was their safety so what he WON'T do is 16 months and ***** the consequences. Do you really prefer that we let guys die to keep an arbitrary timeline..? Nice try, but the talking points only work when the other side is miserably misinformed - try forums.foxnews.com, they'll buy your BS no problem.
- ShimonDigg, on 07/19/2008, -2/+14Hilarious
08ama - marabout40, on 07/19/2008, -2/+14and McSame!
- orangefly, on 07/19/2008, -0/+11lying is part of being republican....
- sulthernao, on 07/19/2008, -0/+11Classic GOP ***** tactic. Unfortunately too many people fall for it.
- Lahonda, on 07/19/2008, -1/+12Mistake? Or perhaps a lamenting leaker...
- mousers1968, on 07/19/2008, -0/+10yup
- marabout40, on 07/19/2008, -0/+10How do you feel about CNN http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/
or Politico http://www.politico.com/blogs/jonathanmartin/0708/ ...
or, hey, how about Atlantic.com's Marc Ambinder's blog that shows the actual email http://marcambinder.theatlantic.com/archives/2008/ ...
Do you "trust" any of these sources? - Speed, on 07/19/2008, -0/+10"Hit the wrong button" in the same sense as someone who texts his ex-gf when drunk?
- totorototoro, on 07/19/2008, -0/+10This would never happen in a McCain White House...if you don't even know how to turn on a computer, you can't possibly send out accidental emails :p
- orangefly, on 07/19/2008, -2/+12tool....
- DooM, on 07/19/2008, -0/+9Seriously - does this administration really think that if they use a synonym for "Time Table" we won't realize that he's now doing what he claimed would be disastrous up until a week ago..?
- FrenchAnarchy, on 07/19/2008, -0/+9What is this... intenets... very confusing
- chrissku, on 07/19/2008, -3/+12As if McCain needs anything else to go wrong. I'm starting to feel bad for that old fart.
- zephyear, on 07/19/2008, -1/+10"liberal media"
i'm sorry i can't take anyone who says this seriously - PhillyMJS, on 07/20/2008, -0/+8They may not do so well at sending it, but they seem to have a pretty good handle on deleting it.
- King0007, on 07/19/2008, -0/+8Just hit CNN oops
http://www.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/meast/07/19/almaliki ... - inactive, on 07/19/2008, -0/+8Maliki finally understands washington politics....he is playing both sides.
Buy this man a beer, he deserves it. - bjornski, on 07/19/2008, -1/+9They're secret Muslims too?
I think that'd be news to Michael Eisner. - Naieve, on 07/19/2008, -1/+9Wrong button my ass.
- Draculecom, on 07/19/2008, -0/+8Blunder? What else is new, it's exactly what we expect from those knobs.
- RevLoki, on 07/19/2008, -0/+8Whoopsie Daisy!
- inactive, on 07/19/2008, -3/+11Obvious troll is obvious.
- tidu, on 07/19/2008, -0/+7Actually this news is all over the MSM; if I hear "time horizon" one more time I'm gonna kill myself.
- biggychong, on 07/19/2008, -0/+7This is what happens when they let bush use a computer.
- ByteGuerilla, on 07/19/2008, -1/+8Arg! Don't post that we know about that here! Now the government knows we know.
At least they don't know we know that they know we know... aww *****. -
