OT The Incredible Lying BushCO!

This is a very good read. It really does well to explain just how
gullible or blinded the republicans are in this country:
Like you even needed more proof.
Like you even need to read about the incredible and ever-increasing
list of lies and misinfo and deeply, colon-clenchingly humiliating
wrongness shot forth from the mouth of the GOP machine, a truly
jaw-dropping assortment of falsehoods and fabrications about war, and
war, and war. Oh, and the economy. And the environment. And war.
Look. There is no doubt left. Zero. None. Even many high-ranking
Republicans are deeply worried over the increasingly embittered
national timbre regarding BushCo's lies, as reflected in his
ever-slipping ratings and declining reelectability quotient and his
smug little smirky emptiness.
Do you need to be reminded? Do you need to see it again?
Very good, then. Let us recap: No WMDs. Biggest joke on the American
public in the past 50 years. Saddam doesn't have 'em, and probably
never did. Over 1,400 of BushCo's own investigators and specialists
and scientists -- affectionately known as the Iraq Survey Group --
canvassing postwar Iraq for six months, not to mention the teams of
original U.N. investigators, and finding not a trace of anything
resembling huge stockpiles of massive scary weaponry.
Which is to say, no nukes. No biotoxins. No big cannons full of scary
Korans and rusty bullets and old gum. Nothing at all resembling what
Condi Rice and Cheney and Rummy and Wolfowitz, et al., said were
absolutely positively no question going to be found any day now
because after all that's why we went to war. Except that it wasn't.
And they knew it.
To paraphrase The Washington Post: Among the judgments of the
above-mentioned Iraq Survey Group, as overseen by David Kay, who
reports directly to CIA Director George Tenet, are these: Iraq's
nuclear-weapons scientists did no significant arms-related work after
1991. Also, all those facilities with suspicious new construction
(remember Colin "Emasculated" Powell's bogus satellite photos?) proved
benign, and of no military use whatsoever.

Yup, Saddam sure fooled a lot of people!
