MITT (DER DRUMHEIT) ROMNEY

Before the U.S. leaders commenced the
rape of Iraq Rummy, The Dick Cheney,
Condi Mushroom Cloud gave assurances
Iraq had WMD's and they knew exactly
where they were. Bush and the lesser
members of his mob were telling anyone
who would listen that the WMD's were
there and he wasn't going to stand for it.
Bush iterated and reiterated, however,
he had not made up his mind about an
invasion. Since he was shipping a 100,
000 soldiers to neighboring Kuwait no-
one paid much attention to that lie. That
was Fall of 2002 & Jan. & Feb of 2003.

Cut to 2007 and you are aware of the ca-
tastrophe that is Iraq. Also, there are two
presidential nominating races going on
and Mitt Romney, a Repug, seems to be
leading in his heat and that brings us to
the heart of the matter. On June 5, 2007
he goes on Tim Russert's Meet the Press
and in answering a simple query as to
whether Bush's invasion of Iraq was the
right move the ex gov. of Mass. & wanna
be Prexy of the United States answered
with a lie so stupid, so unecessary, so
transparent, so evident that it rocked
Gibraltar. Mitt Romney, ex gov. of Mass.,
leading candidate for the presidency of
these United States. said the war started
because Saddam Hussein wouldn't open
up his country to the IAEA inspectors of
the United Nations who would have ver-
ified that there were no WMD's in Iraq.

But, of course, in Sept. of '02 Saddam
agreed let the Inspectors back in. By
November they were in Iraq with heli-
copters, trucks, equipment galore, 100
inspectors and 150 staff workers. In
his Jan. '03 report Hans Blix, honcho
of the inspectors, admitted they'd al-
ready inspected 230 prime locations
and found no WMD. He continued to
inspect in Jan. & Feb. and when Bush
ordered the inspectors out Blix begged
him for 6 weeks to 2 months to finish
his inspections.

Bush refused. The inspectors left. Bush
invaded.

The purpose of this memo is not only to
call attention to the Romney Faux pas
but to ask where is the lack of dissenters
to this obvious lack of reasoning on the
Gov's part. One can only smile when the
newspaper hack or our t.v. flakes send
forth their conventional wisdoms. God
forbid they would criticize a person who
might go up the ladder.

The only piece that captured the moment
that I found was Krugman in the NYT.

And Mitt wants to be president? Give us
a bloody break.
