AIPAC Rebuts Post Smears - Would Bush Meet AIPAC if CI Could Demonstrate Espionage

Post decline watch continues......

JPost reports AIPAC rebuttal to comPost smears.

"If [Thursday's] Washington Post report of a two-year ongoing probe of AIPAC is true, than surely the confidence demonstrated by the president of the United States, the vice president of the United States, the highest officials in the Executive Branch, Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, Senate Democratic Leader Tom Daschle, Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert, House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi, and countless other congressional leaders including key members of the intelligence committees in continuing to regularly meet and address AIPAC during this period of time is substantial vindication of AIPAC's loyalty and trustworthiness," the statement added.

"Apparently nothing turned up during this rigorous two-year probe of AIPAC's activities to deter President Bush from addressing AIPAC's Policy Conference on May 18, 2004. Nor has information surfaced that has prevented scores of other administration and Congressional leaders from speaking regularly and candidly with AIPAC officials, or addressing major AIPAC events and meeting with AIPAC leaders," the statement said.

Will the Post ever appologize for their smears or even publish the AIPAC rebuttal....don't count on it.
