Hhmmm, a very interesting conversation between Amy Good and Seymour Hersh.
I believe that most pro-Bush readers would have stopped reading after the first half of the interview as the second half casts the Bushies in rather unfavourable light.
Seymour Hersh concluded:
Well, he (Bush) gave a speech at Johns Hopkins on Monday, that's one of his more remarkable speeches, not only because of his manner, which was a funny affectation -- he was hopping around, almost jocular. Forget what he said about me. It's what he said about Iraq that was very troubling to me. He once again said there's great progress, this is a wonderful thing we’re doing, I’m proud that we're doing it, we're bringing democracy. I have it in front of me, because I always carry it around. He said -- he compared this -- ‘This is an ideological struggle we're having with Iran that equates the best part of the Cold War, when we defeated the Russians.’ He's once again comparing this to the Cold War. He's once again saying that things are wonderful, that it's a noble enterprise.
And oh, and by the way, Cheney, during his debate with Edwards in late October 2004, declared with a straight face, "Iraq is a remarkable success story...."
LOL! LMAO! To be sure, Bush and Cheney and the rest of the Bushies and the neocons have a most wonderful sense of humour, don't you think? . |
