No, I said that it was Rebound's favorite source. That rules it out as a credible source.

As for the Niger uranium documents being forgeries, every single news source I am aware of gave the same exact facts. To quote the CNN article posted above:

Sources said that one of the documents was a letter discussing the uranium deal supposedly signed by Niger President Tandja Mamadou. The sources described the signature as "childlike" and said that it clearly was not Mamadou's.

Another, written on paper from a 1980s military government in Niger, bears the date of October 2000 and the signature of a man who by then had not been foreign minister of Niger in 14 years.


I guess nobody sent Rebound the memo on that one. He still thinks the Niger documents were authentic, Iraq tried to buy yellowcake uranium from Niger, and that Joe Wilson was wrong when he said the story was false.

It was the Bush Administration that used forged documents as evidence for both Colon Powell's presentation to the United Nations and for Dubya's state of the union address. Joe Wilson called attention to this in this article he wrote for the New York Times:

What I Didn't Find in Africa

And for that, conservatives are running around calling him "borderline insane"??
