WTF Is It Now?!?

Report puts rationale for war on shakier ground
That's putting it mildly, you nincompoops. A Duh! News analysis: The new intelligence assessment has raised sharp questions about the White House's terrism strategy and their judgment in focusing on Iraq.

The White House faced fresh political peril yesterday -- since the attacks of Sept. 11, Preznit Wonderdunce has been able to deflect criticism of his counterterrorism policy by repeatedly noting the absence of any new domestic attacks...

9/11 happened on your watch, asshole.

... and by citing the continuing threat that terrorists in Iraq pose to U.S. interests. But this line of defense seemed to unravel a bit yesterday.

"A bit"??? Ya think???

Confronted with a political brush fire, the president and his aides retreated to familiar ground, highlighting the parts of the report that they saw as supportive of their policies.

"These people have sworn allegiance to the very same man who ordered the attack on September the 11th, 2001: Osama bin Laden," the president said. "And they want us to leave parts of the world, like Iraq, so they can establish a safe haven from which to spread their poisonous ideology. And we are steadfast in our determination to not only protect the American people, but to protect these young democracies."

Gawd. I can actually hear that smirking little fucker in my brain: 'their poisiniss ahdeolidgy.' :: shudder :: I really need to get a drink.
