Well, Trump seems to be playing the ass... more particularly, Balaam’s ass. He’s there kicking at any untruth he thinks he sees, to the point of being quixotic.

There’s something endearing about his intent, even if not about his aim, which isn’t always accurate. You can always count on truth. It will make you free (even if it makes you miserable first).

Former CIA Official Accuses Bush Administration of Selectively Using Prewar Iraq Intelligence

 

Feb. 10, 2006

A former top CIA official said the Bush administration used prewar Iraq intelligence selectively to make the public case for war after having already decided to invade the country, the Washington Post reported today (see GSN, Feb. 8).

“Official intelligence on Iraqi weapons programs was flawed, but even with its flaws, it was not what led to the war,” Paul Pillar, national intelligence officer for the Near East and South Asia from 2000 to 2005, wrote in the upcoming issue of the journal Foreign Affairs. The administration “went to war without requesting — and evidently without being influenced by — any strategic-level intelligence assessments on any aspect of Iraq.”

“It has become clear that official intelligence was not relied on in making even the most significant national security decisions, that intelligence was misused publicly to justify decisions already made, that damaging ill will developed between [Bush] policy-makers and intelligence officers, and that the intelligence community's own work was politicized,” Pillar wrote.

Pillar, now a security studies professor at Georgetown University, was considered the CIA’s top counterterrorism analyst prior to his retirement. He was responsible for coordinating assessments on Iraq from throughout the U.S. intelligence community, according to the Post.

Your graphs prove nothing other than the fact that Trump supporters are just like the Obama supporters of 2007-2008, Celebrity worshipers.

Yes we can, Yes we can!

Trump is intentionally resurrecting the “Bush lied” talking points for the Democrats, just in time for another election. What the hell does this have to do with any issues in 2016 and frankly, nothing to do with Jeb Bush. (I am not a Jeb Bush supporter)

Our satellites picked up Russian trucksdriving up to Iraqi weapons plants, loading up (under cover), adn driving to Syria.

Now Syria has WMDs. Remember when Israel and Syria were fighting a few years ago? Remember how the left insisted that Israel better not set foot in Syria? Could that be why?

This is an unforgivable comment by Trump, we can argue and debate the what if’s of going into Iraq but any Republican that believes that G.W. Bush did not keep us safe after 911 or who in anyway believes that truther crap about 911 is insane and won’t ever get my vote. Trump is a lunatic period.

And who cares that Israel intelligence has videos of them taking caravans of WMDs out of Iraq and into Syria. The stupid thing was that they were given plenty of time to clean house.

“Its findings were endorsed by all eight committee Democrats and two Republicans, Senators Olympia Snowe of Maine and Chuck Hagel of Nebraska.

The chairman of the committee, Senator John D. Rockefeller IV (D-W.Va.), noted in a statement accompanying the report: “The president and his advisers undertook a relentless public campaign in the aftermath of the attacks to use the war against Al Qaeda as a justification for overthrowing Saddam Hussein.”

Shame on you! Posting what the Democrats (and Hagel and Snowe) accused GWB of doing. What is next, quoting Code Pinko?

Nothing that Oprah... er Trump says surprises me. He is just another celebrity that is full of crap.

I'm coming to that conclusion myself.

Speaking of celebrities full of crap: Oprah Winfrey just joined Weight Watchers. Lol. WW has been the ONLY successful weight loss institution for EONS and Oprah JUST decided to try it. She bought stock in it.

WW depends on people have the self control to
1. Eat less and eat right.
2. Exercise every day for a minimum of 30 minutes...EVERY DAY...EVERY DAY

Oprah won't do number two because THAT is the bugbear of 99% of the Weight Watcher repeaters. They just CAN'T get off their fat a***s and move, other that to go to the refrigerator. I guess Oprah can send a lackey to bring her more food.

She told her viewers what to read. Now she's telling them that WW works. ENORMOUS duh.

Full of crap: you nailed it, plain talk.

I think the World Trade Center attack had more to do with eight years of Clinton than eight months of Bush.

No you are just a good obedient slave that is never skeptical of what you are being told if it has a “R” by its name as the Founding Fathers said we should be.

This is why Obamacare happens, Fast and Furious and Benghazi happen. The slaves are never skeptical of their own parties.

The Establishment exist in both parties. Bush is a 100% certified Establishment. It’s the reason why we got Obama.

Stay away from the Bushs. They are toxic!

Since we know he used gas on them, ipso facto, gas is not a WMD.

Because everyone knows there were no WMDs in Iraq
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
All my cynical self says is that

if WE absolutely knew there were NO WMDs in Iraq, we definitely would have found some on the first inspection.

As to Trump not only must he stop and put his brain in gear prior to most ‘off the cuff’ statements AND a ‘friend’ of his should tell him to take his twit/tweet/twat/twitter or whatthehellitiscalled and put it away.

Since this Bush thing just came up right after Bro W and Mommy coming to Jebthroes aid, the questions may be skewered to ‘rile Trump up’, into saying something very stupid.

I heard Bret Baier say on WMAL after the debate Trump missed that he was walking to the podium half an hour before the debates with TWO SETS OF QUESTIONS ... on if DT showed up and one if he didn’t.

Crap like that and the D debacle in NH with Bern winning by 25 or so % and Hillary getting more delegates and the coin tosses and lack of recount in Iowa, I am convinced the FIX IS IN and gazillions of dollars in manpower, fuel, TV time etc etc are being spent and the 2 that the ‘establishment’ (Both sides) want will be there come November....

Guess the ultimate goal is to have NO ONE show up to vote as they will figure it is useless anyway.

Yes some Google prodigy 22 yr old PHD or something was watching it via their satellite as it was his job and was board and moved it over that area and saw it. I remember the story. I am sure it has been scrubbed from the innerwebs....

I am not a Bush fan. In fact I now detest him because he keeps his mouth shut as Obama destroys us. I am not sure if he is collusion or if he is merely being blackmailed and threatened but he has given Obama free reign to destroy us and make him a laughing stock.

Even without the WMD having a foot in the ME was a good idea. Look what happened when Obama pulled us out. If we would have stayed how different history would be. Obama destroyed all that was fought for with life, limb and lots of our money. He is the culprit. He is evil incarnate.
