Bush admits it wasn't about WMD or the Iraqis
http://www.cnn.com/2003/ALLPOLITICS/11/14/sprj.irq.bush.hunts/index.html

What Bush is essentially saying is that it wasn't about anything but Saddam.....and a 12 year old grudge his Dad couldn't settle.

1. Ya know, I am getting pretty sick of this.
What is it?
WMD?
SH?
Iraq Liberation?
The Front on Terrorism?
Terrorism?
Democracy in Iraq?

Talk about "bait and switch"...this is the "bait and switch" olympics! Well I DON'T buy it and never did.

I am pissed. Excuse me while I vomit. :puke:

3. So where's the admission?
All I read was implicit confirmation that he has no intention of ever leaving Iraq.

4. I pine for a headline that includes both the words "Bush admits" and "Oil"
Only then will I feel Bush is being honest with himself and us.

5. It wasn't about ANYTHING
Edited on Sat Nov-15-03 01:06 AM by elperromagico
It was about Bush waving his dick around showing America how "tough" he is. It must be terrible to be a fifty-seven year old man still trying to prove your balls are bigger than your mother's.

6. Not America,
Daddy.

I thought from the start that this whole mess had Oedipul tones.

10. He's killing our boys to avenge his dad.
Now, how do you think Sadaam feels now that Bush killed his two boys? Bush will forever be looking over his shoulder for that pre-emptive strike. This is a family feud that I think America should not be a part of.

11. At a meeting between Condi and two senators
Bush stuck his head in the door and said "Saddam's going down" or something to that effect. This was before 9/11.

Source: I'll need to find it. It's been posted on DU before and I've seen it somewhere else.

What this means is that yes, indeed, this whole Iraqi quagmire is all about avenging his daddy.
