Lots of thunderstorms last night kept me from posting.
Bush sends out another scapegoat to apologize for his own cowardly inability to accept responsibility
What a man.
Stephen Hadley, the Moron of Midland's deputy national security adviser, on Tuesday became the second administration official to take a bullet for the lazy, self-absorbed nincompoop sitting in the Oval Office to apologize for allowing a bogus intelligence report on Iraq's nuclear ambitions into the lying bungler's State of the Union address.
Hadley is the top aide to National Security Adviser Condoleezza 'Chevronwhore' Rice. He said he was taking responsibility on behalf of the finger-pointing fascist punk White House staff just as Tenet had for the CIA.
"There were a number of people who could have raised a hand" to have the passage removed from the draft of Bunnypants' Jan. 28 address, Hadley said. "And no one raised a hand."
The White House presented Hadley's apology on a day when public attention on Iraq was focused on the killing of Saddam's sons Uday and Qusai.
Meanwhile, some Democrats used the development to step up their criticism of the court-appointed disaster. "First they blamed the Brits. Then CIA Director George Tenet walked the plank. Now the White House is dragging (Hadley) forward to take the fall for the president's bogus claim," said Tony Welch, a spokesman for the DNC.
Former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean asserted in a statement that "I call on all who misled the president to resign immediately. ... The story line continues to change from day to day on this matter."
The straight-shootin' Bush has said the uranium phrase had been cleared by intelligence agencies, and has sidestepped questions on whether he felt personally responsible for the tainted information (link).
