Remember Rummy telling us that there was some exhorbitant amount of money “missing” in Iraq before he exited stage reich?

You are teetering on the brink of slurring my name :)~

I’ve just begun downloading and perusing the documents sort of randomly and it already appears as if former Dem presidential hopeful General Wesley Clark was being briefed right along with the rest of the retired tools.

I also found that the Pentagon wasn’t just “briefing” on Iraq and Afghanistan, but Rummy’s bogus “Global War on Terror” as well.

I also noticed that Bill O’Reilly’s program was mentioned specifically – and that was just after reading one or two pages at random!

The individual adds: “And we’d love to be following our leader, as indeed you are. You are the leader. You are our guy.”

I hope rummy shifted his weight so this guy could kiss his other butt cheek.

Donnie, my friend, would you be so kind as to make some more predictions; yours have run out of oil.

REPHRASED:

“Sir, if you could just go out there with your cute little suit and sneakers and standing desk and prevaricate, as you do so well, it would be really great because… well … we’re just not as good at lying as you are sir.

Really, you are a walking ANTI-VERACITY machine…. “

Is any of this really surprising? I stopped being surprised when I heard the votes being cast for the “Authorization to Use Force in Iraq”. Why doesn’t the MSM go back and check all the reasons we went to war? Wouldn’t that be novel?

Oh Breaking News….a cop shot and tornados!!!! That’s news!

The fact the many of the news sources have yet to reveal their culpability is not newsworthy to them. They haven’t been reporting ALL THE NEWS for the last 8 years. Rumsfeld was their go-to-guy to make it happen.

It’s really sad to see all the News Sources turned into cheerleaders for the GOP.

Actually, aren’t they saying to him…
“We want you to go on the record first. So that later on, you can’t say that what we said was not what you intended.”

I think they saw through him, and this administration’s penchant for denial if anything went wrong.

Either that, or they drank the kool-aid.
