F'right Dingers'll B'lieve Anything, Even Bush Ain't A Liar
In mid-March of '03 (Press Release was dated March 17) Resident Bush said to the nation:Intelligence gathered by this and other governments leaves no doubt that the Iraq regime continues to possess and conceal some of the most lethal weapons ever devised.No doubt! Got that, you idiotlogues? No Fucking Doubt! That don't leave much wiggle room.
Yet yesterday, we heard from Colin Powell:
Secretary of State Colin L. Powell, who urged the United Nations to endorse a war to strip Iraq of supposed weapons of mass destruction, conceded Saturday that Saddam Hussein's government may not have had such arms.So if Powell has real doubts, and if Kay doesn't believe they had WMDs, in sum, if there are such serious doubts now, how could there be no doubt in March of '03?
"What is the open question is how many stocks they had, if any, and if they had any, where did they go? And if they didn't have any, then why wasn't that known beforehand?"
Powell made the comments a day after David Kay, the leader of the U.S. search for banned weapons in Iraq, stepped down and said he did not believe there were any large stockpiles of chemical or biological weapons in the country.
Ya know, our side never claimed Clinton didn't lie. We argued that a lie about a blowjob wasn't a BFD. So you should -- uh-oh -- you can't admit Bush lied. Using a lie to take the nation to war just might be the teeniest bit worse than lyin' bout gettin' yer dick licked.
I want one of you pinhead idiotlogues to rationally (I know that's tuff fer y'all.) explain to me how Bush isn't a liar, a delusional, or an idiot. Please. I'm achin' fer it.

Search4Blogs The Me What I Am I took the name Phaedrus from Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. Not that I'm as smart as that Phaedrus, but I am a ghost. Sort of. I started doing odd jobs at a motel when I was 14. I lasted one day at a McDonald's, quit, lasted a lot longer at Taco Bell. I've been a gas station attendant, janitor, die cast production worker, day laborer, course maintenance at a miniature golf course, warehouse, union janitor, cabbie, statistical clerk, pool cleaner, working homeless for a few weeks (day labor), and several other things I can't remember. And I've survived. Sort of. I'm not a Marxist, but I am a genuine member of the lumpen proletariat. Largely paraphrasing the secular saint Woody Guthrie: "This shit is Copyrighted in U.S., under Seal of Copyright # 000000 (cuz this part's not true), for a period of 28 years, and anybody caught using it without my permission, will be considered mighty good friends o' mine, cause I don't give a dern.
