David Kay: "Once taken, excused. Twice taken you’re an idiot."
Edited on Thu Apr-29-04 08:41 PM by bigtree
Members of the Iraqi National Congress and its leader Ahmed Chalabi were airlifted into southern Iraq the day Saddam’s government fell. Chalabi was President Bush’s guest at the State of the Union address. Even today, the INC gets $340,000 a month from the Pentagon to feed the United States intelligence information.

>>>>>>>>>

An Iraqi police official says one doctor claims he was kidnapped at gunpoint: “They bound him, took him to an unknown place and after he got back to his house he discovered they took $20,000. We caught the suspects and they said they were from the INC.”

Iraqi authorities tell NBC that four INC operatives are under arrest, and an arrest warrant has been issued for the INC’s chief of intelligence.

>>>>>>>>>

In fact, the former head of the weapons hunt, David Kay, questions why a group that provided “fabricated information” is still on the U.S. payroll. “You know, once taken, excused," says Kay. "Twice taken you’re an idiot. And I think we’re now at the point of we’re really an idiot.”

2. ..." we're really an idiot"
Geez, what can you say? A year and a half ago, any alert reader of DU knew the US was being taken; it takes a smart fell like Kay this long to figure it out?

When Kay says "we", he sure ain't talking about DU'ers.
