Bush, Cheney, Rumfilled, Condi have all come clean

[TioDiego]

about whether or not Iraq was involved in 9/11. Thanks for that. Too bad they couldn't have said that before the war. How stupid is this country? Dang it.

[Brucey]

1. Cheney?

Is there something I don't know? (Well, isn't that a straight line for the comedians out there...)

2. Saw it on BuzzFlash Brewski.

5. Thanks for the link.

15. Actually, the article says the opposite of what you're saying re Cheney.

Bush "Backs away from Cheney remarks" -- that means Cheney did NOT come clean.

[tom_paine]

18. Yep, Rich -- I wonder how that could be?

You are right on the money.

How oh how could that be?

Tio is very Fair and Balanced.

3. Perfect.

313 dead.
1600 wounded.
8000 evacuated for med reasons.

NO WMD's.
NO Drone's.
NO Al Qaeda.

Traditional Alliances Broken; world opinion against us; and Iraq has turned into our economic black hole.

What a big pile of shit.

[TioDiego]

4. Is that a trifecta?

NO WMD's.
NO Drone's.
NO Al Qaeda.

6. I love it when W hits the trifecta

Here's another one

No Osama
No Saddam
No Kenny Boy

7. Good one, DoYou

[Minstrel Boy]

8. now they just need to come clean about

their own involvment in 9/11.

[rwork]

9. I am sure

we could come up with dozens of clips of him saying or implying Saddam was complicit in 9-11.

[SnohoDem]

11. It was more subtle than that

I don't think you'll be able to find many, if any, quotes of misadministration officials saying, "Saddam did it."

But over, and over and over, they all said,

"9/11 blah blah blah ... Saddam"
"Saddam blah blah blah ... 9/11"
"Terrorist blah blah blah 9/11 blah blah blah ... Saddam"
"Saddam blah blah blah ... 9/11 ... terrorists "

Not to mention repeating the lie that Atta met w/ an Iraqi agent in Prague, or the Salman Pak story, or any of the other crap - doing everything they could to link 9/11, terrorism, Al-Quaeda, and Saddam in the public's mind.

They left the actual "Saddam did it" lies up to the wingnut press.

14. You are absolutely correct that is exactly what they did, a little

sneaky rotten word association game.

[UTUSN]

10. Now They Have MOVED ON, Have Put It BEHIND Us

With the merest of a wimper, they are off SCOT FREE. We've been snookered again.

[tibbiit]

12. They slipped in another lie

Saying Saddam + Ansur Al Islam = al quaeda (spelling:) sorry)
The Al Islam group was in Iraq that was NOT controlled by Saddam.
I heard bush say saddam was involved with them and this is another LIE.

13. When it comes to moving on, they quicker than a jackrabbit on a date

[janekat]

16. I finally figured out WHY they "came clean"

Because the sheeple are just now catching on to the fact that Bush & Co. are liars.

Rove must have done some focus groups and 9 out of 10 people said that they thought Bush was a liar. AND what all the talking heads say IS true: "The reason people like George Bush is because they trust him" "They think he's a straight shooter. That's his strong suit."

THAT is the ONLY thing he has and if he loses that - people will turn on him like there is no tomorrow.

So Rove must have figured that it was better for people to get angry that we went to war in Iraq for no good reason rather than to get angry at Bush & Co. for being a pack of liars.

But - it is WAAY too late for that - too many people have figured that out - and they can't put the cat back in the bag.

[snippy]

17. Actually, they are just lying about some of their previous lying.

[samsingh]

19. all those nuts who ridiculed

anyone who questioned the reasons for going to war have innocent blood on their hands from both sides of the Atlantic.
