News Flash: that doesn't make Barbara Boxer a hero. It makes her a very bitter, very stupid, very obnoxious Senator. Today Joe Biden is trying to match Barbara Boxer for stupidity and obnoxious. He's doing a very good job.
Both Boxer and Biden have the notion that in order for the Bush Administration to be acceptable in their eyes, this means the Bushies have to put on hairshirts and grovel around on the floor pleading forgiveness for making so many mistakes. This is absurd, but it's what the cratz want, and they won't stop presumably until they get it. I hope hell freezing over has some meaning for those people because that's the only time any Bush Administration official should ever subject themselves to such uncalled for behavior.
Why is it so hard for the cratz to understand that George W Bush DID NOT LIE when he spoke about the invasion of Iraq to be for the purpose of stopping their proliferation of WMD's? Just about the time I think, "okay, they have to get it NOW", one of them comes up with some ridiculous new take on the subject that shows one thing very clearly. It isn't that they don't get it. It's that they WON'T get it. Because as soon as they acknowledge the truth, that seems to indicate they will give up some high moral ground in debating who tells the truth and who doesn't.
When every nation on the globe believed that Saddam Hussein possessed WMD's because all the nations involved in intelligence gathering to determine what Hussein was up to concluded that indeed, he had WMD's, how does it make any sense to suggest that George W Bush lied about WMD's in Iraq? Based on the conclusions of intelligence agencies all over the world, George W Bush believed Iraqi WMD's existed, and he was unwilling to allow Iraq to continue to violate numerous UN Resolutions.
Everything that came after stems from that original intelligence. Add to that the continued disregard of Iraq for all UN Resolutions, there was more than sufficient reason to stop Saddam Hussein from building a larger stockpile of WMD's and pimping out his country for terrorist activity. For Barbara Boxer and Joe Biden to suggest otherwise shows their ignorance of the facts. All it would take is for both those blowhards to read a few books by people far more knowledgeable on terrorist activity than either of them will ever be. However, both of them reject any information that does not fit with the picture they want to portray of a president hell bent on lying his way through one term and doing the exact same thing through a second. They are doing their country a huge disservice with their unrelenting show of disregard of facts that are available to anyone who wants to take the time to learn them.
Just because the cratz don't want to believe the truth doesn't mean it has been either kept from them or distorted for their consumption. They are behaving like spoiled toddlers throwing temper tantrums, and it is beneath the dignity of the government positions they hold to allow them to continue with their fantasy portrayal of the Bush administration. Why should the Bush administration admit to mistakes they did not make? That's just plain ridiculous.
And besides that, I really REALLY mind.
