Thank you Internet :)

Are you now denying that the Bush Administration has wanted to bomb Iran? Really?

“Who the hell cares if he got the date wrong? What relevance does it have?”

Christmas will be celebrated on Thur Dec 27 this year. Enjoy.

OH!

It’s CRAP!

I guess I should have known.

Then there’s Sy. He’s the public speaker, the pundit. On the podium, Sy is willing to tell a story that’s not quite right, in order to convey a Larger Truth.
“I can’t fudge what I write. But I can certainly fudge what I say.”
Hersh insists that he takes great pains to be right when it counts the most—that is, when he writes, not when he talks

that well known right wing outfit NY Mag came up with a profile titled “Sy Hersh Says It’s Okay to Lie (Just Not in Print)”

so is sy hersh going for the “larger truth” here ?
or is he actually telling the truth ?

Perhaps I was a child left behind. . . . In fact, I believe that dub’ya counts on the ignorance of the masses.

Anyone who can’t add up the inconsistencies in Bush’s statements (and for that matter all GOP candidates and a couple of Democratic positions) needs rudimentary math classes. This is a topic about which I am passionate. Fingers fly faster than I can type.

Worst president ever. He has forever changed our concept of democracy. “We’ve got the best democracy on the planet . . . an example for all” . . . hell, get over it.

Really, annie? Why? The wall is an admission that they can’t hold their settlements. Which are against international law and have been for decades. I am glad you realize the Israelis are not exactly on the up and up but I am curious why you think they were before?

Spring 2001, The Lone Gunmen tv show had someone takeover a commercial airliner by remote control and fly it into the WTC! But Rice and W tell us that noone could have foreseen such a thing.

Just think back to 9-11, how could Bush possibly have imagined that jets would slam into the World Trade Center towers, he had been briefed, but the reality of the fact really wasn’t exactly reality until it was.

Heck, he had Wolfowitz screaming afterward that the Iraqi’s had WMD and were responsible for the bombing (not that Iraq had anything to do with it), Wolfowitz was the expert on WMD, he said bomb, we bombed, he lied and got sent out to pasture at the World Bank (where he continued to wreak havoc). Years later, memories lapse, 4,000 Americans and Lord knows how many tens of thousands of Iraqis dead, Wolfowitz is back in charge of WMD policy with Iran in his cross-hairs, Iran has no WMD, but all is right with the world . . . dub’ya wasn’t properly briefed more than a year ago, he’s been screamin’ WWIII, and hot damn, we’ve got an election on the horizon.

And all is right with the world.

Progressives ALWAYS opposed Saddam. Carter had sanctions against him. Reagan quickly removed the sanctions and began aiding him strongly. Ditto GHWB. Ditto Rumsfeld. It was our CIA which put him in power in the first place. I contributed to Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, and the International Red Cross which told of Saddam’s atrocities while the cons were supporting him.

The Arab League said that Saddam had agreed in March 2003 to leave for $1 billion and a guarantee of safety. But neocons didn’t want to just “take him out”. He wanted to control that part of the world–mainly because of the oil and natural gas.

“I’m told that Olmert had a private discussion with Bush about it during Annapolis”

By whom? I cannot take Hersh’s word at face value. He is known to fabricate information to bolster his agenda.

He must think the American people are village idiots. Another nail in the clown’s legacy.

This NIE has been in the pipe for more than a year – while Cheney tried strong arm tactics daily to get them to support his maniacal claims. I think the NIE agencies just decided they would not be made patsies any more.

To even consider that Bush heard from McConnell about the direction of this report and did not question him further tells us one of two things: either Bush is incredibly more stupid than we thought, or worse, he’s not that stupid, but he is a liar, out of control.
He is either too incompetent to be president, or too corrupt. He has been proven to have lied to the public and the world. He is way past irrelevant now.

Read Hersh’s piece in the New Yorker from last November – he nailed it.

Maybe if Valerie Wilson hadn’t been exposed, the CIA would have had more concrete info on Iran’s nuke program sooner. Perhaps that was the reason they outed her and her undercover operation. Perhaps the Congress could look into the connections. Perhaps they could actually ask Bob Novak what in the f*** he was being paid for. Oh, wait, I forget, few of them care to ask the right quesitons. Dots–what dots? Pelosi believes they still have no evidence of impeachable offenses. We all know it’s already been proven.

If one wants to see the face of the Gorgon, read FreeRepublic. I do to see what makes these people tick. It is literally a collection of sociopaths, rednecks, Neo-Cons, War Mongers, Ditto Heads, Religious Fanatics, and just plain dummies. I used to read Bizarro Comics as a kid, but this is much funnier…..Well, let me take that back, if people weren’t dying and the USA wasn’t in such rough shape, it would be very funny.

Today, Bush said that he only learned about the NIE Report last week. Oh, really? Hersh challenges that statement, based on Bush’s conversation with Olmert on 11/26, where he discussed the NIE.

How can anyone believe Bush when he said that Mike McConnell told him about the new NIE report in August, but Bush “didn’t ask about it” and “wasn’t told anything.”

If this could possibly be true, and Bush didn’t know about the NIE when he said on 10/17 that Iran would start WWII, WHY didn’t Mike McConnell correct this misstatement? Why didn’t he go public about Iran’s nonexistent nuclear program so that Bush’s bellicose statements could not lead to War? Can anyone believe this scenario?

No — of course not. We all know Bush lied in his press conference today. It was a pathetic sight to see Bush — from the most powerful position in the world — looking so pathetic. We need to nail Bush on this. Call Congress and the media — demand action.
