A tribute to Condoleeza Rice and George W. Bush who, despite voluminious evidence to the contrary, said, "I don't think anybody could have predicted that these people would take an airplane and slam it into the World Trade Center, take another one and slam it into the Pentagon, that they would try to use an airplane as a missile," adding that "even in retrospect" there was "nothing" to suggest that" and "I don't think anyone anticipated the breach of the levees," respectively.

DARN GOOD INTELLIGENCE

Having watched Condoleeza Rice lie so often and display her uncanny ability to channel the thoughts of gwb, I thought I would revisit some of the claims made about WMD and the intelligence used to justify an invasion of a sovereign nation without provocation. This woman is absolutely disgusting. Now is the time for diplomacy, she said today. Good call, bitch! Where were you when we needed you to promote diplomacy over military action? Anyway, here's what the perennial failure had to say in July '03:

"I think the intelligence I get is darn good intelligence, and the speeches I have given were backed by good intelligence," Bush said. "And I am absolutely confident today, like I was when I gave the speeches, that Saddam Hussein developed a program of weapons of mass destruction."

"The larger point is and the fundamental question is, 'Did Saddam Hussein have a weapons program?' And the answer is, 'Absolutely,' " Bush told reporters after a meeting with U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan.

Now, it’s the everybody thought he had the weapons so don’t blame me for making such a gawd-awful blunder by invading Iraq defense. Truly, if this guy was employed in any sort of professional capacity, the trial lawyers would be on his ass for negligence. As an example, suppose a surgeon ordered x-rays before performing surgery to remove a tumor. The x-rays were inconclusive if there even was a tumor but the doctor performed the surgery anyway without ordering a new set of x-rays or additional diagnostic tests. Assume further, that the patient died. Do you think there’s any jury in the land that would not find the doctor guilty of professional negligence or malpractice? So why does the Boy Blunder get away with it. Perhaps some enterprising lawyer can commence a civil suit for malpractice on the Bush Administration.

Damn Good Intelligence and Damn Piss Poor Reporting by CNN

http://www.cnn.com/2003/ALLPOLITICS/07/14/white.house.intel/

Compare these two articles and you’ll find that CNN neglected to put to print this obviously false statement:

[Defending the broader decision to go to war with Iraq, the president said the decision was made after he gave Saddam Hussein "a chance to allow the inspectors in, and he wouldn't let them in."]

One has to wonder why CNN elected to not print a blatantly false statement made by the leader of the free world. How can we trust any mainstream media when they won’t tell the whole truth. This is dishonest and par for the course when keeping negative information from reaching the public.
