CNN's David Ensor today has 2 minutes and 16 seconds of "fuck you" to Bush's speech today about critics "re-writing" history on the lead-up to Iraq.
It is on their main page: www.cnn.com
In the report, Ensor utterly demolishes, point by point, Colin Powel's speech to the U.N. -- and I have to say, I feel for the general, just a wee bit. . . as he was seriously lied to and made to look the tool.
To wit:
-- the two prime intelligence sources for much of the Admin's case on mobile bio-weapons labs, like were both considered a "liar and fabricator" and a "screwup".
-- "the powers that be weren't interested" in the veracity of the intelligence
The story strongly implies that Bushco (outside of the State Dept.) knew damn well it's info was wrong or misleading
Yes, yes, I know, this isn't "news" to Kossacks. But it is on CNN today, on their front page. And it is an unapologetic smackdown of Bushco. That makes it worth looking at and passing on.
Please see this for yourself and if anyone can provide a direct link to it, I would be much obliged.
