No shit

The Politico:

A new book by the author Ron Suskind claims that the White House ordered the CIA to forge a back-dated, handwritten letter from the head of Iraqi intelligence to Saddam Hussein.

Suskind writes in “The Way of the World,” to be published Tuesday, that the alleged forgery – adamantly denied by the White House – was designed to portray a false link between Hussein’s regime and al Qaeda as a justification for the Iraq war.

The author also claims that the Bush administration had information from a top Iraqi intelligence official “that there were no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq – intelligence they received in plenty of time to stop an invasion.”

These fuckers (John McCain included) had such a hard-on for Saddam and his oil that nothing was going to stop them. If only our Democrat controlled Congress had the same hard-on for impeachment then maybe, finally, we would have some accountability. Maybe, finally, Dick Cheney would be behind bars. But they don't, and they won't, and the entire crew will ride off into the sunset to enjoy their millions.

Mission accomplished.
