A record 57 percent say the Bush administration "intentionally exaggerated its evidence that pre-war Iraq possessed nuclear, chemical or biological weapons," according to the poll.Who knew Americans could be so fallible? Well, P.T. Barnum, H.L. Mencken, and Karl Rove, but only the last one actually was able to translate that into the deaths of so many.
It was the first time a majority said the administration "intentionally misled" the public, the survey said.
I appreciate that no one likes to admit he's a sucker, so this is actually quite a startling poll, because it means that Americans can no longer rationalize away how baldly they have been lied to and how terribly our brave military has been used.
I'm curious to see what happens after Chimpie prances around Ft. Bragg tonight to try again to abuse our soldiers as a cheap emotional tool to cover his mendacity and incompetence. No president in my lifetime has ever so blatantly hidden behind our armed forces even as he ran from them in his youth or tries to destroy them now.
George W. Bush, America is learning to hate you for the cowardly, ignorant, dishonest shithead you truly are. You can't hide behind our warriors and even Jesus isn't going to cover for you any longer.

Question for Gregor S: What is your country and why would you want to go to America? Many of us see it as a corrupt and evil place. If you want bluejeans, please be aware they aren't important. (I could probably get you some Levi's, maybe of honest French manufacture.) Explain your situation; is it desperate? Maybe you should start your own weblog. --Jean G.
Oh, and one other message for Gregor S. If you don't yet know, stay the hell away from Tom DeLay. He used to be a bugman, that is, exterminator. Considering your ultimate fate, hanging around a guy who laments the loss of unlimited distribution of DDT is not wise.
Olaf, it seems el presidente was warmly received yesterday... What now?
Chimpie warmly received? Only 23 million saw the show, down from 34.7 million for his Social Security speech. I suppose that "warmly received" is in the eye of the beholder. Stop drinking the kool-aid before it's too late!

I'm not surprised the audience keeps shrinking. Chimpie's magnetic words on the refrigerator can only generate so many speeches. Key phrases: "September 11," "ruthless killers," "freedom," "a free people," "democracy," "terrorists,""war on terror," "atrocities," "chemical and nuclear weapons," and so on. He doesn't link them in any logical manner but instead relies on the loose association that remains as residue in the minds of those benumbed by television. I will applaud him for one big surprise, however--he actually named Osama bin Laden...of course, he didn't exactly explain that he's still on the loose and that he had no connection to Iraq until we invaded.
