OUR TROOPS ARE DYING FOR SYCOPHANTS (Condi Rice hearings-ultra barf alert!)
Creators.com ^ | January 20, 2005 | Paul Craig Roberts

Posted on 01/28/2005 1:51:29 AM PST by The Loan Arranger

In her confirmation hearing before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, "Condi" Rice personified the Bush administration's delusion-based "war against terror." Whenever a senator's question penetrated to the harsh reality, Condi waffled and evaded, choosing to protect at the expense of her reputation the neocon delusion that invading Iraq was the "right thing to do." Exasperated, Senator Barbara Boxer objected to Condi's "continuing assault on reality."

Condi Rice's outstanding qualification for secretary of state in the Bush administration is that she is the complete sycophant. She fits right in. Can you name anyone in the Bush administration who is not a sycophant?

Consider: On Jan. 13, the Financial Times reported that many in the Bush administration are alive to the "depth of the crisis" in Iraq, "but, they say, this is not a view accepted by President George W. Bush." Another source told the Financial Times that "reality based" assessments of the Iraq crisis "stop well short of the president."

Citing sources, the Financial Times reports that when queried by President Bush for his views on the progress of the war, Secretary of State Colin Powell replied, "We're losing." Bush responded to his candid secretary of state not by asking Powell to tell him about it but by asking Powell to leave.

The way President Bush sees it, bearers of bad news are "against America." This means that anyone who is not a sycophant is not "with us" but "against us." How can there be any bad news when America is Good, America is Powerful, and the other guys are bad and not powerful?

If Bush were aware that his army has failed to "secure Iraq," he might wonder at the neocon-Likudnik plans to attack Iran. Bush might even stop being Richard Perle's puppet. Or Ariel Sharon's poodle.

Why would Bush hire someone who didn't support him?

What would other countries think if Bush says one thing and the SOS says something to undermine what he says?

Am I missing something here?

Where was Paul Craig Roberts during the *Crinton administration? (We sure could've used writing like this!)

So PCR doesn't like what the US is doing in the Middle East. Has he proposed any alternative plan?

As far as I can tell, his plan is that we either convert to Islam, or practice dhimmitude.

Since when did Paul Craig Roberts start supporting the commie Boxer?

The world is flipping upside down this morning.

No, this guy is a freaking anti-Semite. To wit:

If Bush were aware that his army has failed to "secure Iraq," he might wonder at the neocon-Likudnik plans to attack Iran. Bush might even stop being Richard Perle's puppet. Or Ariel Sharon's poodle.

The New York Freaking Minute that this ass-clown, who was highly respected back during the High Reagan Years of the mid-Eighties, started going on about the Likud Party, or Bush being in Richard Perle's or Arik Sharon's back pocket, any reader should have broken our this official Protocols of the Elders of Zion Secret Decoder Ring.

Condi and Bush are in the pay of the JOOOOOOOOZ!

And here I thought Condi was a Presbyterian. Turns out she's been secretly poisoning wells all these years.

Dayum, she still has nice legs, though.

Be Seeing You,

Chris

Terrorists around the World can sleep a little better knowing that if they are ever captured by our brave soldiers, the Rat Party will be looking out for their welfare. They can rest assured that they will never have to worry about drinking warm Lemonade since Crazy Ted and Box-a-Rocks will make sure that they have the required 4 cubes of ice for their parched throats. If they drink it too fast and get an ice cream headache, there will be court martials.While President Bush is fighting for the protection of the American People, the Dumocrats are fighting for the protection of the Terrorists.

Senator Dayton from MN on the Senate Floor has claimed that President Bush knowingly lied to the American People and Congress. With no proof whatsoever the Senator is making reckless accusations that the President lied to go to War in Iraq. If Senators are making such very serious charges than they better have proof beyond a doubt that the President knowingly made up the story of the WMD. Senator Dayton, Crazy Kennedy and Box-a-Rocks better have proof that GW knew there was no WMD in Iraq. Of course there is only proof of the opposite.

Today’s Rat Party is devoid of new ideas, direction or values so they have only resort to the Politics of Personal Destruction. The Moore-on wing-nuts running the Party are trying to make a case for the President’s dishonesty when they have no evidence to back that up. When I called their offici to ask what exactly the President lied about, neither Dayton or Box-a-Rocks gave any answer. The accusation is all that matters and proof is not necessary in a DNCBS world. There is not even the slightest hint that the President or anyone else knew there was no WMD!

After Saddamn kicked Clinton out of Iraq, we had no inspectors for 5 years. We knew that he had WMD when he gave us the boot and did not agree to inspectors until we have him 100,000 reasons on the border. Even then he defied Hans Klink and his UN Cops while playing the shell game with him. If you are 90% sure he has them and would have them used on America while not cooperating, a President would be a fool to trust that madman. That is what the Ratpea Brain Trust would have preferred.

There is not absolute proof that the WMD did not exist in Iraq during the 18 months we sweated on the border with our 82nd Airborne Inspectors playing solitaire while rushing to War. The only thing we can be assured of now is that there are no WMD in Iraq, which is nice.

Do we say that the exit pollsters were lying when they polled Kerry winning the election only to find that their samples were wrong? Do we say the networks were lying when they were predicting a big win for Kerry? Bad example. Being wrong or deceived when you believe it to be true is not lying. You have to change the definition of lie to fit this argument, which is what the CommiKKKrats are doing. Taking their cues from Fraudulant 911, every whackjob conspiracy is to be believed and if you lie about someone being a liar, it must be true. Midget-Boxer floated this theory on the Senate floor and when not confronted decided to continue her accusations which were followed by Drunk Uncle Ted and Dayton.

Now the Republicans have to address the accusations to show the depths they have sunken. What specifically is the lie or are the lies?? What exactly did Secretary of State Rice or President Bush lie about??? What lies were told leading up to the War??? We will wait. I called Box-a-Rocks and Dayton and got no answer to these question. Only a they will call you back...Right!

Rather than celebrate the Iraq Election and Freedom of 25 million more enslaved people, the Rats want to declare the war illegal. Rather than give our Soldiers and Military the credit and Honor they deserve, the “Peace” at any Price Party wants to denigrate them. They would rather the Rape Rooms and Mass Murder to continue until the 55th UN agreement is considered and Saddamn decided to step down or was somehow voted out. What was the voter turnout for their hero Saddamn?? We could count on Koffee re-checking his Swiss bank accounts to keep the pressure on. We could count on the CommiKrauts to do the bang-up job they did to Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Mogadishu, Kosovo, Bosnia, Somalia and Haiti. They at least keep full employment for the Grave Diggers. But the Slaves all had Healthcare right up til they were shot!

What Box-a-Rocks and Crazy Uncle Ted have proved is that they have no business anywhere near the Military or Security of this Country. Their hatred and outrage at the success that Bush has had and the lack of seating on the Trash Heap of Histoir has sent them into a deep dank dimensia never before seen in the Dims. Even though they were KO’d in the Election, Boxer wants to continue a couple more rounds with Condi.

Pray for W and Our Troops
