"The president of the United States sets atop of the legal pyramid. If there's reasonable doubt about his ability to faithfully execute the laws of the land, our future would be better off if that individual is removed. And let me tell you where it all comes down to me. If you can go back and explain to your children and your constituents how you can be truthful and misleading at the same time, good luck." - Senator (then Rep.) Lindsay Graham, in 1999.


Ex-CIA director: misadministration lied stretched facts on Iraq
"There is no question in my mind (policymakers) distorted the situation."

Former CIA director Stansfield Turner accused the Bushies Tuesday of "overstretching the facts" about Iraqi WMD in making their case for invading. Turner suggested George Tenet should watch his back, because CIA directors "can be made the fall guy" by administrations when policy judgments based on intelligence go wrong.

Meanwhile, in public, anyway, pReznit Privilege is not having second thoughts about invading Iraq.

"We made it clear to the dictator of Iraq that he must disarm," the AWOL, bunker-hopping Chickenhawk-in-Chief repeated like a wind-up parrot in a speech Tuesday. "He chose not to do so, so we disarmed him. And I know there's a lot of revisionist history now going on, but one thing is certain. He is no longer a threat to the free world."

Once - just once - I'd like to hear someone in the media call him on this 'revisionist history' garbage. Read back some of his own quotes to him. Ask him why, since we can't find him, Saddam is no longer considered a threat.

Then I remember they're all whores.
