Do you also remember how the Bush administration told how they virtually had to twist the Saudi's arms to get them to state troops there and then prince Bandir later told how he invited them ther gladly? "Diddle me once, sham on you. diddle me twice, shame on me."

Or when James Baker, when asked of the reason of Desert Shield, said,"In a word: Jobs"?

I was in uniform at that time and wondered how many soldiers were worth each job to be saved. So many of the reasons we were told were later shown to be bogus I had a hard time believing anything else that the Bush administration had to say after that.
