President Bush Answers the Lunatic MSM
Posted by Mark Noonan Blogs for Bush
You'd think after a while that the MSM would keep our "crazy aunt in the attic", Helen Thomas, away from Presidential press conferences:
<<< Q I'd like to ask you, Mr. President, your decision to invade Iraq has caused the deaths of thousands of Americans and Iraqis, wounds of Americans and Iraqis for a lifetime. Every reason given, publicly at least, has turned out not to be true. My question is, why did you really want to go to war? From the moment you stepped into the White House, from your Cabinet -- your Cabinet officers, intelligence people, and so forth -- what was your real reason? You have said it wasn't oil -- quest for oil, it hasn't been Israel, or anything else. What was it?
THE PRESIDENT: I think your premise -- in all due respect to your question and to you as a lifelong journalist -- is that -- I didn't want war. To assume I wanted war is just flat wrong, Helen, in all due respect --
Q Everything --
THE PRESIDENT: Hold on for a second, please.
Q -- everything I've heard --
THE PRESIDENT: Excuse me, excuse me. No President wants war. Everything you may have heard is that, but it's just simply not true. My attitude about the defense of this country changed on September the 11th. We -- when we got attacked, I vowed then and there to use every asset at my disposal to protect the American people. Our foreign policy changed on that day, Helen. You know, we used to think we were secure because of oceans and previous diplomacy. But we realized on September the 11th, 2001, that killers could destroy innocent life. And I'm never going to forget it. And I'm never going to forget the vow I made to the American people that we will do everything in our power to protect our people.
Part of that meant to make sure that we didn't allow people to provide safe haven to an enemy. And that's why I went into Iraq... >>>
This is pure lunacy - Thomas is essentially saying that President Bush, et al, came into office in 2001 with the pre-determined notion to go into Iraq (likely for oil) and used the 9/11 attacks as an excuse (if they didn't plan the attacks themselves to create an excuse). This is pure, unadulterated leftwing paranoid conspiracy theory - and it is asked by a supposed journalist at a Presidential press conference. What is next? Demands from Thomas that President Bush provide the proof that the Skull and Bones Society ordered the assasination of JFK?
We've got these lefties on the ropes - they are falling off the political cliff. Things keep up like this, then the Democrats' campaign theme by October really will be impeachment - because President Bush is controlled by the Illuminati.
