Or that Coulson had paid for his "mistakes" and that he knew nothing. Despite others saying there was more to come and Coulson will face more grief. They were shouted down with accusations of tribalism and muck-raking and trying to make too much out of nothing. Don't worry I shan't expect any apologies, but maybe a little bit less of, "well, we all knew there was more to come."

And out of the wood work you come for a nice juicy anti Tory post .

If its found that information was gleaned from hacking that helped the election then yes people's heads should role. But lets face it if a politician can send good men to there deaths on a lie just to bolster there standing with America and not have to resign i don't think you have a hope in hell over this. To be honest i think its pretty low of you to send this thread of topic so you can score cheap political points, What about those about to lose there jobs.

Get away with what, Are you that anti Tory that you think to you can make it out that they were doing the hacking. You need a tin foil hat sir.
