"If the American people had ever known the truth about what we (the BCE) have done to this nation, we would be chased down in the streets and lynched." - Poppy Bush, 1992
Transitioning to the global war on terror, an animated Rice questioned, "When are we going to stop blaming ourselves for the rise of terrorism?"
Maybe when you fucking monkeys stand up and take some responsibility for your actions!
We all know Bush was to busy working on his ranch to be working in his office. Wouldn't want to interrupt his vacation for something like national security.
Originally posted by Ellyllions What seems to be getting lost in all this is Clinton's smirking quote to Wallace..."I don't blame Rove, if you've got a strategy that works..."
This was when he was talking about how the Reps are winning with fear.
That one line, says "ya do what you gotta do in Politics".
It makes them one in the same.
Not quite. For all the influence Rove has on Dubya, I doubt if he talked Bush into invading Iraq. Dubya made that move on his own, for his own reasons. Any other president would have kept the focus on Afghanistan, including Clinton. And if Rove came up with the WMD/ties to 9/11/"let's form a democracy" equation for justifying this war, then I'm very disappointed in him. Clinton is a master politician, and so is Rove. I guess Clinton (kind of) respects him as such.
Originally posted by DLR'sCock anyone find it odd that john o'neil was killed at the WTC on 9-11????
I knew this a week or two afterwards, and i founf the coincidence well......very very strange......considering who he was.....
FORD?
i know you know....
I don't think it's that mysterious at all, just ironic as Hell that he chose to work there, of all places, and that 9-11-01 just happenned to be his first day on the job.
By all accounts, O'Neill had shown up a little early for work, and his office was in the South Tower. He could have been free and clear of the building even before the second plane hit that one, but as the dedicated public servant he was, he instead chose to help others evacuate the buildings, and sacrificed himself in the process. When the "all clear" signal was given to the workers in the South Tower, under the assumption that the first crash was an accident, O'Neill did not accept that, and told his new co-workers to keep moving down the stairs. God knows how many lives he saved that day, though unfortunately not his own.
Though I'm sure that whomever was responsible for the attacks considered it a "bonus" that they also managed to eliminate the guy who would have found them out, had his investigation not been cut off by the BCE.

He was saying that in reference to the "fear factor" that the Dems accuse the Reps are using at election time. Basically saying that he doesn't blame Rove for using a strategy that has worked. Kinda says a lot don'tcha think? Just out and out saying..."hey, if it works?...why not?" and then chuckling about it.
In my mind, they both use fear. Reps want us afraid of terrorists, Dems want us afraid of Reps.
