Poor Bush, turns out he just don't know how to pick friends, too |
|
We pay this Guy Chalabi big bucks for info used to start the Iraqi War, turns out much info wuz wrong, then we reward him with more money only to discover he was giving info to the Iranians?
There is not too much the Bush guys are doing right it seems.
Bush sure knows how to pick um.

9. Yup, turns out Bushes worst of many NIGHTMARES, is the Iranians |
|
finding a way to get the United Staes to do what they couldn't 20 years ago themselves.
Iran geta the USA to trust Chalabi enough to rely on false info he provides and in return, they get good info from the USA via Chalabi. Its a 2 fer and hardly any cost to Iran cuz the USA funds the whole operation, the ultimate triple cross.
The USA looking like real suckers and Chalabi caught with greasy fingers in the cookie jar. Iran looking/smelling like ROSES.
Bush knows how to pickum

3. I guess he didn't follow his own advice |

He said this in his speech today at the LSU graduation: "On the job, and elsewhere in life, choose your friends carefully. The company you keep has a way of rubbing off on you. And that can be a good thing or a bad thing." http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2004/05/20040521-4.html

As the old saying goes, he can choose his friends (Chalabi, Negroponte, Cheney, Rummy, Elliott Abrams, Prince Saud, Henry Kissinger, James A. Baker III, et al.) but not his family (Jeb, Neil, Poppy, Babs). Pathetic choices, disgusting gene pool.

I guess one would have to describe this as "a bad thing".
How timely and strangely appropriate speech.
