One of my conservie acquaintances recently referred to Richard Clarke as an opportunistic, asshole traitor (or something to that effect). I have to wonder how long he will continue to disparage anyone and everyone who has the audacity to question the Bush administration's foreign policies before he spouts a wooly fleece and is picked up by Hollywood for a role in Animal Farm. Guess this means he'll be launching character assassinations next against Bob Woodward, Colin Powell and the other seventy or so high-up people who spoke on and off the record for Woodward's book (including the army's high brass). He'll claim I suppose that these guys too are all French-loving, unpatriotic, terrorist-abetting traitors....
I don't think that my virtual conservie was brave enough to venture beyond Fox News Sunday evening to catch the 60 Minutes exclusive with Bob Woodward. Had he done so, he might have learned that much of what was revealed in this expose supports what many(including Clarke), have been saying all along -- that Bush and Cheney were obsessed with going to war with Iraq. BTW, did Mr. Bush ask his father for any advice? “I asked the president about this. And President Bush said, ‘Well, no,’ and then he got defensive about it,” says Woodward. “Then he said something that really struck me. He said of his father, ‘He is the wrong father to appeal to for advice. The wrong father to go to, to appeal to in terms of strength.’ And then he said, ‘There's a higher Father that I appeal to."
The sucking sound you hear are the billions of dollars being funneled into Iraq instead of fighting the real terrorists. You know... the terrorists who are even more fanatically enraged and committed to destroying the U.S. since Bush preemptively waged war on a country that had absolutely nothing to do with Al Quaeda or 9/11 (and which also possess no WMD..[the reason we went to war, remember?]).
Meanwhile at home, Bush's policies wreak havoc on the environment, alienate the
international community, and explode the deficit. I would love to hear some cogent arguments from conservatives out there why a clandestine blowjob with an intern is worse than what this English-challenged, born-again idiot has brought to bear. Mind you I am being generous here. If it were up to me, I would impeach the bastard solely on the fact that this world leader can't string two coherent sentences together. Which is why I cut Bush's evil twin brother Blair so much more slack. The guy is delicious to listen to on CSPAN....
