A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Releasing Secret Information

Edited on Fri Apr-07-06 07:09 AM by Montagnard
One thing being over looked in the story of Bush’s release of secret information is that the NIE released is the one that contains the information that Bush WAS informed that there was disagreement among the intelligence community over the Iraqi aluminum tubes. You do remember the aluminum tubes that were cited as the Casus Belli for going to war with Iraq. Well, that NIE is the one where Bush was told that the intelligence agencies of the State Department and the Atomic Energy said the tubes could not be used for a nuclear bomb. Even with that knowledge Bush went on to cite the tubes in his State of the Union just prior to war. Later on, his chief apologist, C. Rice stated, Bush was unaware of any disagreement over the tubes prior to his speech.

They cannot even lie good! Just one more day in the land of Supreme Incompetence.
