The sheep are being fleeced.
Aren't there more people in the country that are getting pissed off about the current administration's misinformation and attempts to shift the blame of failure?
I remember, very clearly, because I had just started staying home full time with Holly. Bush addressing the UN, stating clearly that Saddam had a whole bunch of naughty stuff. I remember feeding Holly baby food while Colin Powell showed "evidence" of satellite pictures with little white circles painted on them. I remember the diagrams of the mobile chemical weapon factories that were allegedly all over the place over there.
And I remember thinking that it would be OK if we had a specific goal in mind: In and out fast. I remember thinking that if we were there for an extended period of time, we were going to be in trouble. Well, we are in trouble now.
It took me a while to actually find this on CNN's site. You might think that it would be important, but I guess Mel Gibson, Zero-Gravity Surgery, and puppy power are all a little more important.
And I must say yet again, that The Daily Show got it right. Fox News' Chris Wallace tried to pull some shit (I don't curse here very often, but this got me so angry) with Bill Clinton on Sunday. They said they were going to ask him questions about the Clinton Global Initiative, but then jumped subjects and started asking him why he didn't take out Osama Bin Laden, and blah blah. Bill Clinton got pissed first, and then recovered and rattled off item after item of things that he did in the last couple years of his time in office. So The Daily Show got together all these clips of how the news programs (CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN, FOX, pretty much everyone) reported only about how rattled and "combative" that he got. And all those "news sources" didn't pay any attention to the massive points of information that Clinton did lay out there. He lobbed some serious firepower at the current administration, and no one has even raised an eyebrow!
Any thoughts?
