When somebody asks you, sir, about the cooked books and faked threats you foisted on a sincere and frightened nation …
When somebody asks you, sir, about your gallant, noble, self-abnegating sacrifice of your golf game so as to soothe the families of the war dead.
This advice, Mr. Bush: Shut the hell up!

It's a good thing that the world is so black & white that a biased "anchorman" can see clearly what is going on in Iraq. I saw that rant, and was like "yeah, it's that simple, isn't it?". I'm not disagreeing with everything that he said, I just think that there was more to the invasion than Haliburton's profits. We were trying to send a message to the people who hate us, which we all know now went very wrong. Olberman's Monday morning quarterbacking with a sharp tongue (easy to have now that it's Monday) helps nothing.
And I'm a centrist, not a righty.
