Condi: "We understand there's still the shadow of what happened about weapons of mass destruction"

http://www.aina.org/news/20070219085951.htm

<snip>

Rice said U.S. officials believe Iranian officials are involved in supplying Iraqi militias with parts to assemble deadly armor-penetrating weapons. But Rice said she did not know to what extent and at what level Iranian officials are complicit in their procurement.

When asked whether she was surprised by the skepticism the reports of Iranian weapons had generated in the United States last week, Rice responded that "it's America, it's a democracy. And everything is greeted with questioning and skepticism. ... We understand there's still the shadow of what happened about weapons of mass destruction here."

The world knows what you and the neocons did.

23. Great list, Botany!
And there's also these

"If anybody in my administration DID leak classified information...."

Rumsfeld will not be replaced as Sec'y of Def......

It's really kinda difficult to think of any examples of this outfit telling the truth, isn't it?

4. I wonder what she's going to do after the Bush Administration ends
Will she ever confront what she was a part of? Probably not I guess.

5. I can't believe they're still flinging this shit...
With the help of the Corp-whoreth Estate, of course.

She's either lying or she's delusional. Either way should make her unfit for public office.

19. Condi is a disgrace to women...
Edited on Mon Feb-19-07 01:43 PM by TwoSparkles
...everywhere.

She's like an obedient Stepford girl--being led around by the nose
by legions of abusive males--who use her to further their evil
agenda.

She may have had brains, poise and talent at one point--but she's
thrown it away by acting like an obedient lemming with no mind of her
own.

Condi is no better than a washed up hooker. She's always at the command of her
White House pimps--saying and doing whatever they demand.

Condi ignores how immoral, perverse and evil her pimps in the White
House are--and is more than happy to screw the American people again
and again and again.

15. It's not just the shadow....
...you bubble headed ass kisser.

No one in this country believes anything you say. You have no credibility.

You are a joke. We think you are complete idiots.

You sold us a war once before. We see the disastrous results of
your handiwork--every night on the news. We are not interested
in your bullshit.

You are contemptible. Your judgment stinks and your lies are
ridiculous.

We don't give a rat's ass what you think or what your opinion is.
On anything. We are completely done with you. That cloud of
oblivion that you inhabit is bizarre and your pseudo-intellectual
ramblings about the American people are repulsive.

If you want to call that a "shadow" honey, knock yourself out.

24. The reason Bush Inc continually push the "it's America, it's a democracy"
Edited on Mon Feb-19-07 03:23 PM by Solly Mack
meme - and it is a meme - is to make it seem like everything happening in America right now is just a normal part of democracy. That all is well in America. That Bush isn't trying to erode civil rights or create an all-powerful executive and a marginalized Congress.


Even Rice's "We understand there's still the shadow of what happened about weapons of mass destruction here."

All she is saying is, Americans are just acting as anyone would in a healthy and thriving democracy...

She's not addressing the lie - she's not admitting any wrong doing - she's simply promoting the America is a healthy and thriving democracy under Bush and doubting the claims about Iran is proof of that



Disagree with Bush on torture? It's not that Bush is wrong, your dissent is just a normal part of democracy. Healthy, even.

Disagree with Bush on domestic spying? It's not that Bush is wrong, your dissent is just a normal part of democracy. Healthy, even.

Disagree with Bush on Iraq? It's not that Bush is wrong, your dissent is just a normal part of democracy. Healthy, even.

Disagree with Bush on GTMO? It's not that Bush is wrong, your dissent is just a normal part of democracy. Healthy, even.

And just framing it as a simple matter of disagreement aids the meme.

27. Thanks, sabra
Every time I hear Bush, Rice, Cheney (anyone) promote that lie (and it is a lie), it is like nails against a chalkboard for me.

28. Her Polling Numbers are still better than rest of Bushies...WHY
Why do people not see her for what she is. A person in a job "over her head" who lectures and dictates to the rest of the world the same as the person she slipped and called "My Husband."

She's still liked....HOW CAN THAT BE? She fails at everything she does since she hooked up with the Bushies ...but Americans still "like her." :eyes:

29. That "shadow" that Condiliar is referring to
is up to 3144 of our nation's sons and daughters dead, more than 32,000 wounded, and a huge but unknown number of Iraqi civilian casualties (deaths).

Referring to it as a shadow is profane.
