George W. bUsh lied. Knowingly. Deliberately.
Gee, I am so shocked who could ever have known.

A long-awaited Senate Select Intelligence Committee report made public Thursday concludes that President Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney made public statements to promote an invasion of Iraq that they knew at the time were not supported by available intelligence.

4. And McClellan is out pushing the idea that WMD's was a cover
story for the real reason they attacked Iraq, "spreading democracy".

Yeah right, two oil men attack the country with what was then the 2nd largest reserves of oil in the world to "spread democracy". That's funny because here at home they don't seem to care much for democracy what with all the secrecy and free speech zones and paperless voting machines.

10. I've said it before ... either Bush was a horrific incompetent, or everything is going exactly
as planned ...

either way, he should NEVER have been president ...

13. They covered it on the Today show this morning.
Gave it about 8 seconds tops. It was like she read the report like it wasn't even really news. Surely Britney Spears has done something stupid recently.

14. What a brave Senate!
This brave Democratic Senate issued a report... not an impeachment, not a criminal investigation, not a referral to the World Court for a war crimes inquiry... but a report! What balls they have.

15. So what the fuck will be done about this?
This IS high treason, isn't it? God knows that just about everyone of us here knew this for the past 5+ years, but it's been PROVEN now. What will be done about this? Shouldn't we be seeing nooses on the white house lawn? For christ's sake, when we will have justice?

4000+ American soldiers dead. 1,000,000 innocent Iraqis dead. One TRILLION dollars and a complete reversal of national opinion regarding America. WHAT WILL BE DONE ABOUT THIS? Isn't this absolutely huge news? Far bigger than anything done by O.J. or Britney?

19. Occassionally, I jump to optimistic conclusions. Perhaps, it's the leverage needed,...
,...to block expansion of the war to Iran. I mean, we still have an executive that could potentially just start another war in another nation (Iran) by making shit up to justify a mass bombing campaign. I'm thinking, this report among others and threat of further investigation may be a means of preventing this administration from going forward on the PNAC agenda,...maybe.

:shrug:

I'd also LIKE to believe that, once we have a Democrat seated in the executive, there is a great possibility justice will be pursued against those who committed crimes against this nation and against Iraq.

20. You are really a glass half full type of guy/gal, aren't you?
I wish I was able to see silver linings in the most tragic of circumstances.

Well, Ms. Lincoln, aside from that, how was the play?

17. The fact that Bush isn't in jail points out that there has been a
coup in our Government. Thugs have fraudulently taken over. The election in November, if that is totally rigged, could start a reversal of the coup.

22. and they are STILL LYING about Iran
And the Dems are still enabling them, even Obama!

Iran is not a threat, but Congress passed the Iran Freedom Support Act. What. The. Fuck.!!
I will be surprised if Bush doesn't attack Iran before he leaves, and then Congress and the Corporate media will tell us to shut up about it because "we are at war"
