Imagine this: For 9/11 and telling the lie that "justified" the invasion of Iraq in 2003, there were many Americans who thought that George W Bush aka Dubya was the geatest POTUSA ever, bar none! Anyone who dared to suggest that 9/11 was an inside job was roundly denounced as being an idiot, a moron, an ignoramus and as a conspiracist or a conspiracy-theorist & etc. Oh, how time has laid bare the lies of 9/11 and the Iraq War and Bush's MISSION ACCOMPLISHED. Oh how the mighty have fallen. The folks who thought that Bush was the greatest Prez ever and that he was destined to lead the world to the End Times and Armageddon and who denounced his critics and detractors are now as silent as an undiscovered tomb. Oh, how very sad and bad. Their hero Bush dared not attend the Republican Convention lest the shit that is thick on him should hit the proverbial fan. And he wasn't present with his GOP on Election Night lest his presence should spoil it all for Mittens. Worse, he is now a wanted war criminal (Google for info about this.) Because he knows that Interpol is after him, he hardly travels out of the USA. Oh, what an anticlimax for someone once hailed as the greatest POTUSA. Oh, how the sheeple (sheople) were duped and embarrassed bigtime.

Is there a sequel called the $4 Trillion Dollar wasted Stimulus? The total of both Iraq and Afghanistan over ten years was about $1T. Obama is wasting a Trillion on Stimulus that doesn't make a dent in unemployment each and every year. The Stimulus is just enriching those with jobs already with more and more and more and they are Obama's cronies that are getting the wasted spending.

""Tenet said. . ........ agency officials in the end concurred that the text in the speech was factually correct -- i.e., that the British government report said that Iraq sought uranium from Africa."" Tenet said the CIA warned the British against using the same accusation in a September 2002 white paper about Iraq "because we viewed the reporting on such acquisition attempts to be inconclusive." The British, he said, discounted the U.S. doubts. In October, the intelligence community produced a 90-page classified National Intelligence Estimate about Iraq's weapons of mass destruction program, which outlined evidence that Saddam Hussein was attempting to reconstitute his nation's nuclear program. Tenet said the case made in that document did not depend on the story about the attempted uranium purchase in Niger but that a three-paragraph section did discuss Iraq's existing uranium stockpile and cited reports that Iraq had tried to augment it by acquiring more from Africa. White House officials included that reference in early drafts of the State of the Union speech, and CIA officials "raised several concerns about the fragmentary nature of the intelligence with National Security Council colleagues," Tenet said. "Some of the language was changed. From what we now know, agency officials in the end concurred that the text in the speech was factually correct -- i.e., that the British government report said that Iraq sought uranium from Africa."
