Anyone want a taste of delicious irony?
Check out the graphic at the top of this page. It's Bush's speech to the American people three days before the invasion of Iraq. Geez, even the White House is admitting the tactics taken to get us there.

1. Iraq - Denial and deception

4. Beautiful to behold isn't it?
Probably the only truthful thing on the White House website.

6. I didn't realize (or remember)
that he said all foreign journalists should leave the country immediately. Fancy that, he didn't want an independent press there.

and this: "War crimes will be prosecuted. War criminals will be punished. And it will be no defense to say, "I was just following orders." <-- isn't that exactly what the torture justification memo advised the US soldiers to say?

8. I didn't know he said that
Of course he would want all foreign journalist gone. He can't control them and their message. Doy. This guy is purely evil it makes my skin crawl.
