What's REALLY pissing me off..... today. |
|
Okay so we fight this huge expensive war..... in a country that had nothing to do with 911.... time after time I hear the bush administration say that this war has to be fought with the military and not with the law or intelligence.
meanwhile, back at the ranch,.... we have terrorist gathering intelligence on these buildings that they want to attack. They know really detailed stuff like parking ramp inclines and the types of weapons that guards could be expected to be carrying. Granted some of this stuff was gathered by them pre-911 BUT... you can't tell me we didn't "blow our wad" in Iraq shadow boxing while these guys are setting up another. very real sucker punch!
Where is our intelligence? (rhetorical question only)

1. it's a con game of propaganda....the data is old and the need is fear |
|
you can't use facts with this WH...holes in thier facade appear quite rapidly.
How many times did they say "we need to fight them there..So we will NOT fight them here"....it's BS color coded, scare the people time.

What we see with all these alerts is nothing new. They have yet to provide that any terrorist will do anything. Where is the evidence. And don't give me that bullshit that you can't tell the American people because it's top secret. Fuck that shit. They've played us long enough (not that I ever believe that the "BIG BAD WOLF" was ever coming to get us. I said it on 9/11 and I say it now. The people who part-taked or let 9/11 happen did not do it without having a plan 2, 3, 4, 5 and so on. In fact, 9/11 was not even the first step. These people set the stage for the act of 9/11, it's just one of many steps that they have on their agenda. IMO "FEAR" works right into that plan.

2. Why use intelligence when you have a plan that doesn't include it anyway |

3. What Intelligence? One day we're safer, the next we're not. When is this |
|
country going realize the farce thats going on up there. For example, Bush today said that, "we are a nation in danger." Isn't that the same bullshit he said pre-Iraq war II? They were wrong about that. Why should we believe them now. He has said many times since the "mission accomplished" charade, safely on a carrier off the California coast, that our nation is safer now. Now, its not again? The terrorists were'nt in Iraq, but some of them are now. The rest are disbursed throughout the world. This is intelligence that they did have. They chose the full-military invasion route because it looks better than nabbing one terrorist here, one there. And now meanwhile, like you said, they're plotting and planning while we're bogged down in the desert. That really pisses me off! I don't believe a single word out of their mouths.

5. Not only that...but according to right wingers... |
|
the intelligence is utterly faulty, and it (not this unelected drunken pinhead) is to blame for this unnecessary, costly and out-of-control mess in Iraq....while AT THE SAME TIME right wingers are attacking Kerry for not having attended briefings about this intelligence that is utterly faulty, and is to blame for this unnecessary, costly and out-of-control mess in Iraq...
Uh-HUH....
