WHAT A DIFFERENCE THREE DAYS MAKES How sad. All of those leftists and Saddam appeasers who thought that they finally had the issue they could ride to victory in 2004 are now off somewhere licking their wounds. The great Paul O'Neill roar turned out to be more like a whimper. Let's review what we heard last weekend vs. what we are hearing today: 1. O'Neill said that Bush was disengaged at Cabinet meetings. A blind man in a room full of deaf people. First .. that doesn't make sense. A blind man can hear, and deaf people can communicate .. but never mind. Now we have O'Neill saying that he wishes he hadn't said that in the first place. 2. A big deal was made over O'Neill's revelation that the Bush Administration was making plans for an invasion of Iraq almost as soon as they moved into the White House. Oops. Then we learn that the Clinton Administration had been making the very same plans, and that in fact those plans were required after a law was passed in 1998 making regime change in Iraq an integral part of American foreign policy. 3. Then we learn that O'Neill is going to vote for Bush in 2004, because "I don't see anyone who is better prepared or more capable." So ... how much did the big Paul O'Neill story last? Four days, wasn't it? boortz.com
