Reply #43: Bad process

[Kevin Fenton]

Paul O'Niell's main criticism of the Bush administration was that they had no idea about how to run the country, what sort of processes were appropriate to the US government - every other administration (even Reagan!) has at least had some sort of policy-analysis apparatus, but the Bush/Cheney White House is driven by spin, rather than the desire to choose sound policy that will pay off in the long term - even Dr. Rice charges round the world like a loose cannon. They really thought Iraq had WMD and that 150,000 troops would be enough (actually I believed the former, but not the later).

"Why does any criminal commit a crime if they think the truth will come out?"
They don't. Criminals commit crimes they think they can get away with. Given that, if it were a false flag operation, it must have been subject to some sort of review by competent professionals, they should have raised the relevant objections and thrown the plan in the bin as being too risky. If it was a false-flag operation why no implicate Iraq and/or Iran?
