Brilliant ...
I think is gets messed up because the link has single quotes (') in it.
I don't think it will work, but I put this here anyway --
http://thinkprogress.org/2008/07/08/in-2007-bus...
If I open the link from the ThinkProgress main page, it works.
But, I think Propeller is "reinterpreting" the special characters (') imbedded in the link. and thus the link gets hosed up.

Sorry about that!!
HERE is how to get to the story --
Go to http://www.thinkprogress.org
The story was added to the main page on July 8th at 3:05 pm.
At some point, the main page may switch to only stories posted on July 9.
If that happens and the story is not on the main page, do a search (upper right) on "In 2007 Bush promised" - the first link on the search results is THE story.
Also, here is the Digg link to the 2007 story --

And ... here is the transcript segment from the Charlie Rose interview --
ROSE: But if he said get out now, we don't want you anymoreâ;;
BUSH: I don't see how we could stay. It is his country.
ROSE: But if he said that, it would lead to the catastrophe that you have suggested.
BUSH: That's why he's not going to say it.
ROSE: You don't think he'll say it?
BUSH: I don't. No, I don't.

The republican code words "real guy" and "straight shooter" really mean "narrowminded self indulgent a-hole" and "liar."
