did any body catch clips of Dubya
in California?

I just caught a minute of it and he was going through another laundry list of reasons why we attacked Iraq. This one included:

Research into advanced missle designs

massive program of concealment

Massive ___________(insert favorite fear weapon here) programs


Doesn't this guy ever give up? It's the old shotgun approach again. Throw so much crap against the wall that nobody can counter it.

1. Well, gee.
Dubya is guilty of all three of those things. Yet there's no proof that Saddam had anything to do with any of them. Reminds me of when Dubya was accusing Hussein of participating in "deceit and denial", when thats exactly what the Bush administration has excelled in.

2. I think he loses people every time he does this
A lot of people supposedly liked him because he was a "straight talker" (advertised as some kind of anti-Clinton - God I miss Clinton). But those people who liked him for that supposed reason, I'm betting, are more and more put off by his ever-changing reasons for attacking Iraq.

He led everyone to believe saddam had WMDs, and that those were an imminent threat to the US. That simple - saddam has WMDs. He's not saying that anymore. He's parsing and giving out tens of reasons now. However you characterize what he's doing as far as trying to justify his bloody oil war, obviously desperately, it can't be called straight talk.

The question should continue to be - where are the WMDs (you sent our sons to die to protect us from)? There are none, and that must now be clear to even the most diehard bushbot.

Guess even sheeple don't like being lied to.
