Bush’s Brain is a black hole
In response to all the folks who, for good reason, don’t believe the evidence presented by the Bush Administration shows beyond doubt that Iran’s government is responsible for the presence of Iranian weapons in Iraq, Bush has now trotted out the official dog and pony show at a press conference at the White House yesterday.
I swear, the idiot in the oval office is sitting on a powder keg next to an open jerrycan of gasoline, and smoking a freaking cigar while flicking off hot ashes. Reading the NYT article, it’s obvious that even the people who are “supporting” Bush are being really super cautious not to draw definitive conclusions about whether or not the Iranian top dogs are involved in this, since the evidence, though it suggests that it’s vaguely possible there MAY be a tie, is entirely circumstantial. Defusing the situation if the Iran Government IS involved is a very different proposition than defusing it if a rogue faction of militant extremists within Iran is “moonlighting” without authority from on high. And until we know for sure, no action is better than reaction.
All this spin about Iran is coming directly from OUR top dogs. It’s Iraq all over again, with Bush refusing all diplomatic avenues: “Mr. Bush has also refused to meet with Iran’s leaders, and he said Wednesday that he did not believe that it would be an effective way of persuading the Iranians to give up their nuclear goals. “This is a world in which people say, ‘Meet! Sit down and meet!’ ” he said. “And my answer is, if it yields results, that’s what I’m interested in.””
All this to supposedly keep us safe from Terrorists . . . and if this idiot keeps opening his mouth there might soon be a radioactive crater where Washington DC used to be.
