"Savage assault" fuels claims of Bush as warmongering idiot
Awwwww. The poor, pooooooor reboobs. They can dish it out, but they ... can't .... handle the truth.
[Paul O'Neill] has fuelled suspicions of a warmongering commander-in-chief. Just 10 days after Mr Bush's inauguration and eight months before September 11 2001, removing Saddam Hussein was "Topic A" on the president's list of priorities, according to Mr O'Neill: "It was all about finding a way to do it. That was the tone of it. The president saying: 'Go find me a way to do this'," he told CBS television.
He told Time magazine: "In the 23 months I was there, I never saw anything that I would characterise as evidence of weapons of mass destruction."
Mr O'Neill's criticism has underscored the image of the oilman-turned-president with an unhealthily close relationship with corporate America. He has revealed to Mr Suskind thousands of pages of documents, including a Pentagon memo entitled "Foreign Suitors for Iraqi Oilfield Contracts" that includes a list of foreign companies eyeing Iraqi oilfields and maps potential areas for exploration.

Yet it's Paul O'Neill that's being investigated. Welcome to Fasciststan.
