Reply #239: your theory makes sense, Tellurian

Wilson must have realized what they were up to and . . . refused to be their fall guy. If that was their plan, it was kinda stupid for them to think that Wilson would roll over and play dead. If they plan to ruin someone they should know that there is a darn good chance that person will figure it out and expose them. They are so hell bent on their revenge that they can't even see the whole picture.

I saw * on the telly last night too, and he was desperately trying to convince people that it was a good thing that Saddam was not in power anymore, because he was using WMD against his own people. I don't know if I saw the same broadcast that you did or not. He was very passionate in his speech, no Bushisms or slips of the tongue. He *can* talk when he wants to.

No one asked him if taking Saddam out was worth almost 900 military lives, or thousands of Iraqi citizens' lives. No one asked because anyone who might disagree with him would have been removed before the cameras started rolling. Later in the broadcast he was seen hugging a waitress in a cafe . . . She almost peed her pants, she was so excited to get a hug from the pres. You see? I'm just a warm fuzzy guy, if the CIA had given me better information, I wouldn't have needed to send all those boys off to die. None of it was my fault . . . But now that it has happened, it was a good thing. Saddam can't hurt anybody anymore. I didn't screw up, the CIA did. But even though they did, I did the right thing, because Saddam was a threat to our freedom. A warm, fuzzy, freedom loving guy like me wouldn't make a mistake like that.

That bunch cannot stand to be contradicted. If you contradict them publicly they'll take you out. No one is allowed to disagree with them, ever. Or wear T-shirts that indicate that they disagree. Even Laura Bush is not permitted to disagree with her husband. At their public appearances, protesters (or potential protesters) are dealt with pretty quickly; arrested or taken out in restraints.

The American public has been buying their story up until now. People were in shock after 9/11, and now I hope they are waking up a little.
