tonie61's Journal (138)

Thursday September 18, 03
03:17 AM - He is immoral and will grasp for anything!
Views from a dimension that Dubya attacks—reality!
In the Guardian/UK article, of June 4, 2003, “Wolfowitz: Iraq War Was About Oil”, by George Wright this quote, “The US Deputy Defense Secretary, Paul Wolfowitz - who has already undermined Tony Blair's position over weapons of mass destruction (WMD) by describing them as a "bureaucratic" excuse for war - has now gone further by claiming the real motive was that Iraq is "swimming" in oil, shows less than what you’d expect from the man who would “return honor and dignity to the White House”.
Wolfowitz thought this was such a cute phrase, and contrasted Iraq with North Korea as he elaborated, “"Let's look at it simply. The most important difference between North Korea and Iraq is that economically, we just had no choice in Iraq. The country swims on a sea of oil."
The just mentioned undermining of Tony Blair's position over WMD is fleshed out in an interview with Vanity Fair magazine on May 9th. At that time Wolfowitz, appeared to minimize the importance of WMD in this quote, "The truth is that for reasons that have a lot to do with the U.S. government bureaucracy, we settled on the one issue that everyone could agree on, which was weapons of mass destruction as the core reason," he said, according to a Pentagon transcript in which he stressed other justifications for the war.”
So, they dummied down the rationale for the Iraq war, so that Dubya could win votes for it. The Guardian was intimidated and removed the article of June 4, 2003, “Wolfowitz: Iraq War Was About Oil” from their website and posted the following, “A report which was posted on our website on June 4 under the heading "Wolfowitz: Iraq war was about oil" misconstrued remarks made by the US deputy defence secretary, Paul Wolfowitz, making it appear that he had said that oil was the main reason for going to war in Iraq. He did not say that. He said, according to the Department of Defence website, "The ... difference between North Korea and Iraq is that we had virtually no economic options with Iraq because the country floats on a sea of oil. In the case of North Korea, the country is teetering on the edge of economic collapse and that I believe is a major point of leverage whereas the military picture with North Korea is very different from that with Iraq."
It seems like the nitpicking drivel that the “leader of the free world who doesn’t do nuances”, with his vaunted “moral clarity” would never subject his loving US populace with! Later Wolfowitz predicted that Iraq would rapidly be able to pay for its repair to its infrastructure with the huge oil profits. He had to back away from that also.
In an August 2, 2003 article “ The sheep turn on Wolfie--US senators are pressing for some straight answers about security”, Maureen Dowd writes, “The military and rehabilitation efforts now under way in Iraq are an essential part of the war on terror," Wolfowitz proclaimed, capitalising the "W" and the "T" in his written testimony, and underlining the sentence for those too dim to understand its importance.
Brazening out the failure to find the Saddam-al-Qaida links and weapons of mass destruction, Wolfowitz has simply done an Orwellian fan dance, covering up the lack of concrete ties to the 9/11 terrorists with feathery assertions that securing "the peace in Iraq is now the central battle in the war on terror".
From Meet The Press of March 16th, 2003 the quotes:
“Tricky Dick 2” Cheney: My belief is we will, in fact, be greeted as liberators.
From Meet The Press of September 14th, 2003 the quotes:
Mr. Russert: The Washington Post asked the American people about Saddam Hussein, and this is what they said: 69 percent said he was involved in the September 11 attacks. Are you surprised by that?”
Cheney: No. I think it’s not surprising that people make that connection.
Mr. Russert: But is there a connection?
Cheney: We don’t know.
On CNN Aaron Brown’s NEWSNIGHT of September 17, 2003 this quote:
George W. Bush: We've had no evidence that Saddam Hussein was involved with September the 11th.
CNN, regarding this Dubya doltish quote, has to broadcast to attract viewers, so this is a mild but accurate summation by their John King: Aaron, what he said was that the administration has no evidence that Saddam Hussein had anything to do with the September 11 attacks but Mr. Bush went on to say there's no question in his view that Saddam did have ties to al Qaeda, the latest installment in a running battle. This president's critics say he deliberately blurs the line so the Americans do blame Saddam.
From the latest Meet the Press interviews somehow Cheney implied that we are doing swell in Iraq, which strains credulity. Instead of a public flagellation he should be forced to give that spiel to each and every US family who have lost a dear youth as a sitting duck soldier, and each of the over 30,000 Iraqi citizens that have become “collateral damage“ statistics.
Mr. Russert: Let me turn to the situation in Iraq. We all remember this picture from May 1. The president on the USS Lincoln on May 1; mission accomplished. Since that time, these are the rather haunting figures coming out of Iraq. We had lost 138 soldiers before May 1, and 685 wounded, injured. Since that time, since the president came on the carrier and said major combat was over, we’ve lost 158, and 856 wounded and injured. Those numbers are pretty troubling.
Cheney: You’d like to be able do everything casualty-free. When you think about what we’ve accomplished in terms of taking Afghanistan—we had a total of 30 killed in action in Afghanistan—taking down the Taliban and destroying the capacity of al-Qaeda to use Afghanistan as a base to attack the United States, launching an attack into Iraq, destroying the Iraqi armed forces, taking down the government of Iraq, getting rid of Saddam Hussein, capturing 42 out of the 55 top leaders, and beginning what I think has been fairly significant success in terms of putting Iraq back together again, the price that we’ve had to pay is not out of line, and certainly wouldn’t lead me to suggest or think that the strategy is flawed or needs to be changed.
I don’t have the restraint that Tim Russert has. I would have presented Cheney with the contradiction between Bush saying "Bring 'em on." and the BRING THEM HOME NOW organization of patriotic US military families who hate this duplicitous, heartless regime’s careless destruction of our greatest asset our future, our youth.
All of this treasonous activity is leading to at least four separate congressional investigations. One is for the “16 words”. A second is for the redaction of the 28 pages in the Congressional 9-11 report. A third is for the illegal, despicable act of retribution against Joseph Wilson, by exposing his wife, a CIA operative. Last, but not least, the notorious Presidential Daily Briefing which stated “bin Laden had wanted to conduct attacks in the United States for years and that (his) group apparently maintained a support base here”.
Remember Dubya forgot that he know “Kenny boy” until enough people exposed him for his lie. Maybe, Cheney used Dubya as a model for Cheney’s baseless remark that he knew nothing about Joseph Wilson’s Niger report, and didn’t even know the man.
On MEET THE PRESS Cheney, the former deficit hawk had these simply evil comments about the US economy.
Cheney: I am a deficit hawk. So is the president. The fact of the matter is, we’ve always made exceptions for recession, national emergency, time of war. The deficit that we’re running today, after we get the approval of the $87 billion, will still be less as a percentage of our total capacity to pay for it, our total economic activity in this country, than it was back in the ’80s or the deficits we ran in the ’90s.
From the article, relating to the last Dubya tax cut for his “Ranger” and Pioneer” buddies, "Stating the Obvious", by Paul Krugman, he writes, ""The lunatics are now in charge of the asylum." So wrote the normally staid Financial Times, traditionally the voice of solid British business opinion, when surveying last week's tax bill. Indeed, the legislation is doubly absurd: the gimmicks used to make an $800-billion-plus tax cut carry an official price tag of only $320 billion are a joke, yet the cost without the gimmicks is so large that the nation can't possibly afford it while keeping its other promises".
That sounds bad, but Krugman predicts a destruction of the U.S. economy so that the "social safety net built up over the past 70 years" vanishes. He hypothesizes that this is a calculated strategy. He attributes this dishonorable plan to laziness by moderates and liberals and further states," But the people now running America aren't conservatives: they're radicals who want to do away with the social and economic system we have, and the fiscal crisis they are concocting may give them the excuse they need. The Financial Times, it seems, now understands what's going on, but when will the public wake up?"
They are radical in their economic policies as well as their warmongering. When did we know this was their plan, and how dare they do this when they certainly have no mandate, because unless they conveniently forgot, they lost the popular vote, as well as the 2000 election
Right now you’d have a better chance to have a workable power grid, improved education, health care, and a free press in Iraq than the US. When the baby boomers retire, in less than ten years, the US will be in even worse shape than the deplorable state it is now.
So, you can’t believe the transparent lies that Wolfie of Arabia, Cheney and their puppet president, have to say. Is there anyone in that PNAC crew you could feel confident in believing?
This is a very scary time. As a baby boomer I’ve seen a lot but I have not been so distraught since 1968 when the afore-mentioned “Tricky Dick” spellbound just enough losers with his clearly transparent ploy, the “secret plan to end the Vietnam War”. I knew of no one who actually believed that spiel, but the thug won the election with it. This thug is even bolder and if the media and the public don’t exhibit their outrage, worse days are to come.
The right-wing, with Clear Channel radio stations, and FOX and FOX lite Cable TV, tell the red state voters what to think! It is just like the "Outer Limits" in which "they control the TV; they control what we are shown and therefore what we can conceivably understand. they control the TV; they control what we are shown and therefore what we can conceivably understand.
Previously, every evil tyrant has had to start off small, but 43 changed all that. When his lawyers stole the 2000 election the current GOP organization knew that the entire country was theirs for the taking. When they realized that the US Supreme Court, which 41 stuffed, was in their pocket, they were delighted. Add the complete control of the media to their political and legal stranglehold on the US, and they developed hubris. Many people have died unjustly in wars that should have been democratically debated, but eventually, this regime will be changed. Kerry was right about that point, and if Rove had spent any time studying history, he'd realize that no empire has ever survived when their reach exceeds their capability.

Discussion

"The liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerate the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than their democratic State itself. That, in its essence, is Fascism — ownership of government by an individual, by a group or by any controlling private power."
-FDR
