No Time Like the Present

Bush better hurry. Now that Tricky Bastard Hussein seems to be saying he will destroy the rockets that the UN has deemed illegal, the Bush Gang have a narrow window to demonstrate that UN-led weapons inspections could never work. David thinks it’s within six days or so. I note from a recent poll:

According to the Poll, only a minority of respondents said they’d vote for Bush as President. So he’s right back where he began: supported by less than half the electorate. He makes even Clinton’s fall from grace seem minor by comparison.

Meanwhile, the continuing Bush credibility gap (or “magic reality“) widens: FAIR released a report highlighting a Newsweek article saying that the Bush Gang’s main (dead) source for information on Iraq’s weapons programmes told them (and UNSCOM) that Iraq had destroyed most or all of its weapons in the mid-90s. FAIR also reminds us that when Hussein was using gas in the 1980s, conservative papers like the Washington Post virtually applauded his role in combating — by any means necessary — Iran, then the inspiration, if not the actual source, of both the terrorism plaguing the United States and friendly states in Lebanon and elsewhere and of the revolutionary Islamic currents lapping at the conservative oil-producing states of the gulf.

TWO LEGS GOOD, FOUR LEGS BETTER! Eastasia is our enemy! Eastasia is our friend! Eastasia has always been our friend! Pacifica is the enemy!
