A LIE THAT NEVER SEEMS TO DIE

Condi Mushroom Cloud, in 2002 & 2003, said Sad-
dam's bomb could come back to our shores in the
form of a mushroom cloud. It was intended to scare
the bejesus out of us & it was vividly effective.

The Dick Cheney, our effervescent V.P., said Saddam
"reconstituted" his nuclear program and mentioned
it in all his chatty speeches & interviews. The re-
doubtable Dick still thinks the missing WMD's will
be found which tells us much about him.

Colin Powell lost a lifetime of credibility with his U.
N. speech of lies. That performance brought many
doubters aboard the pre-emptive war train. It was
not long before it was proven his whole portrayal of
Saddam's war capabilities was a devious bag of
truthless tricks.

President Bush, our Child Leader, is the reason for
this re-hash. On 60 minutes, 1/14/07, he said Sad-
dam was "rushing toward a nuclear bomb.". It
seems just changing a word or two, but keeping
the basic falsehood stable it is still usable since our
Child Leader continues to utter it. Never mind that
90 % of the country knows it's bull.

P. S. The reason Powell generates such world-wide
contempt is that he, more than any other person,
could have stopped the Bush/Cheney invasion of
Iraq because he reasoned they had no plan for
occupation & he knew Shinsecki was right about
troop levels. Why he failed is a conundrum, but
failed he did.
