These days, the criminalities and depravities are flying at us so quickly, and with such a concentration, it is easy to miss things. This is my 2nd diary, and I am compelled to write it becasue what I heard in the House today is frightening.
Bring your dramamine over the flip...
John (Yosemite Sam) Bolton's testimony and, more accurately, his dodges to questions posed by Rep. Dennis Kucinich concerning evidence that
WAR WITH IRAN MAY HAVE ALREADY BEGUN have filled me with...well, the urge to wretch. Bolton takes pains to parse between what he "would" know, and what "wouldn't" know. He then makes clear he "knows" what he said he "wouldn't" know. A sort of "known unknown" For example, he cannot deny claims that we are preparing plans for an Iran contingency, because that wouldn't be in his department. But, Mr. Bolton can state categorically, that no such plans are being carried out at this time. Huh??? You don't know for sure IF there are any plans, but you DO know they are NOT being implemented (just a minute, that song "Don't get fooled again" just came on my radio) IRONY!! Anyway this a short diary, and really more of a plea for someone on this board better than I to get this out there. Forgive me for lack of links, but the web is devoid of coverage on this.
