Re: So, UT, what do you think of the Iraq big picture now?

BTW, Saddam could have all the electricity restored in one month. An MBA called George Jr couldn't get it on six months later. Guess we must be patient with Geroge Jr - even if Iraqis are angry. After all, lying comes with his title. He could not help himself. Even worse, that evil press is simply demanding too much. Honesty - and a WMD.

Better to melt down those aluminum tubes into a hat. Then others might forget about that previously promoted myth. How did we know those aluminum tubes were not for WMD? The press (and UN weapons inspectors) must have been lying to us again when they correctly challenged that silly claim using facts.

In a previous thread, prespective was defined as essential to understanding news reports. Some take perspective very seriously by ignoring reams of news reports as biased. Then find the few reports that appear to support a personal bias. But then that is why some still claim those alumunim tubes were for WMD. Perspective.
