You mean the Preznit lied about it?

Get out of here.

I, too, am agog.

How many mouseballs = 1 article of impeachment?

hey, but no sex in the People's House...so nothing to see here...

If Bush-it REALLY thought there were WMD's in Iraq, he never would have gone in. You don't see him invading N. Korea, do you? Why? Well,,, because... they have WMD's...and stuff.

There may be no oral sex going on the WH, but the American people sure are getting screwed. This fucking Merchant of Death has got to GO DOWN!

Bush didn't lie.....he said the Brits told him. ha.

I think Colin's also got some 'splainin' to do:

Here's an excerpt from his speech to the U.N. Security Council on February 5, 2003 (obvious lies in bold):

Saddam Hussein is determined to get his hands on a nuclear bomb. He is so determined that he has made repeated covert attempts to acquire high-specification aluminum tubes from 11 different countries, even after inspections resumed.

These tubes are controlled by the Nuclear Suppliers Group precisely because they can be used as centrifuges for enriching uranium. By now, just about everyone has heard of these tubes, and we all know that there are differences of opinion. There is controversy about what these tubes are for.

Most U.S. experts think they are intended to serve as rotors in centrifuges used to enrich uranium. Other experts, and the Iraqis themselves, argue that they are really to produce the rocket bodies for a conventional weapon, a multiple rocket launcher.

Let me tell you what is not controversial about these tubes. First, all the experts who have analyzed the tubes in our possession agree that they can be adapted for centrifuge use. Second, Iraq had no business buying them for any purpose. They are banned for Iraq.

I am no expert on centrifuge tubes, but just as an old Army trooper, I can tell you a couple of things: First, it strikes me as quite odd that these tubes are manufactured to a tolerance that far exceeds U.S. requirements for comparable rockets.

Maybe Iraqis just manufacture their conventional weapons to a higher standard than we do, but I don't think so.

POWELL: Second, we actually have examined tubes from several different batches that were seized clandestinely before they reached Baghdad. What we notice in these different batches is a progression to higher and higher levels of specification, including, in the latest batch, an anodized coating on extremely smooth inner and outer surfaces. Why would they continue refining the specifications, go to all that trouble for something that, if it was a rocket, would soon be blown into shrapnel when it went off?

To paraphrase Mary McCarthy in a slightly different context: "Methinks every word of our 'old Army trooper' is a lie, including 'and' and 'the'."

Condi was also lying through her teeth about the aluminum tubes all during this period as well.

ITMFA.

Steve,

BTW, I also reported the fact that Bush was informed in Oct 2002:

Waas's article seems to suggest this was the first time that news is coming out, but I had reported it last year as well.

eriposte, I thought this sounded like something you'd written. I was going to mention it to Booman, as well.

It's mid-morning in Italy, the middle of the night in the US. I hope when dawn breaks SOMEBODY in the American main-stream media will actually come out and say something about this.

Where is the public outrage? Where are the demonstrations? The constitution is being shredded before our eyes. A moron gets away with every friggin' thing he does--or does not do. Like his job.

Too much to expect.

Come on Karl, let's hear your spin on this one. It oughta be good. Hmmmmmm. How about: This is sending the wrong message to the terrists. Or: If you don't fully back the commmander in chief, you're dishonoring the troops in Iraq. Or: Talking like this is unpatriotic. Treasonous!

Karl has a million of them.
