Condoleeza Rice responded to Bill Clinton’s accusation that the Bush administration did nothing to pursue Al Queda after gaining office today. She said that the Administration did at least as much as more as Clinton. And that the 911 Commission’s report supports this…

Not if you take the 911 Commissions statements made by Bush and Cheney.

Dubai-based Al Arabiya television on Tuesday quoted a Taliban official as saying al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden was alive and in good health.

The Arabic channel said its Pakistan bureau had received a call from the unnamed Taliban official a few days after a leaked French secret document said Saudi intelligence believed bin Laden died last month in Pakistan.

“The official said bin Laden was alive and that reports that he is ill are not true,” said Bakr Atyani, Al Arabiya’s Islamabad correspondent. “The Taliban checked with members who are close to al Qaeda that these reports are baseless.”

Drudgereport ran a headline today which echoed this sentiment from a new book The Way to Win: Drudge Rules our World.

The authors are longtime political reporters Mark Halperin and John F. Harris.

Drudge then reprinted the book’s comparison of himself to Walter Conkrite. Somehow I can’t see Conkrite doing the same thing in Drudge’s place.

Drudge goes onto describe himself (all from the book of course) as one of the most important entrepreneurs of his generation.

Last line of the article:

“And the dynamic duo get their plug. Hitting bookstores October 3.”
