case closed...

courtesy of think progress:

bush: the terrorists attacked us and killed 3,000 of our citizens before we started the freedom agenda in the middle east.

question: what did iraq have to do with it?

bush: what did iraq have to do with what?

question: the attack on the world trade center.

bush: nothing. except it's part of -- and nobody has suggested in this administration that saddam hussein ordered the attack...


oh, yeah? then what was this all about?

...(1) reliance by the united states on further diplomatic and other peaceful means alone will neither (a) adequately protect the national security of the united states against the continuing threat posed by iraq nor (b) likely lead to enforcement of all relevant united nations security council resolutions regarding iraq; and

(2) acting pursuant to the constitution and public law 107-243 is consistent with the united states and other countries to take the necessary actions against international terrorists and terrorist organizations, including those nations, organizations, or persons who planned, authorized, committed, or aided the terrorist attacks that occurred on september 11, 2001...


spinning a web of lies seems a lot like taking uppers: getting started is pretty easy, and rather enjoyable in an odd way, but the more uppers you take, the harder it becomes to stop taking them -- and the less enjoyable the experience is.when it comes to iraq, awol has been taking uppers for at least four years -- he's starting to sound like ellen burstyn in requiem for a dream to me, and it's creeping me out. saying no one in his administration claimed saddam ordered the attacks is like saying no one claimed he planned, committed, or aided the attacks, either. he's finally gotten his abdomen stuck in his own web, and now he's flailing about helplessly.

but you know what? as creepy as it strikes me, it still looks real good on him. this couldn't happen to a meaner poster child for arrested development...
