Helen Thomas: Bush Recalls No Mistakes In Presidency

[Sticky]

-snip-

And he shamelessly continues his faltering effort to depict the invasion of Iraq as somehow connected to the war on terrorism.

In doing so, Bush is trying to get off the hook for failing to keep his eye on the ball, which would have been to focus on the fight in Afghanistan and the hunt for Osama bin Laden.

Iraq -- which should have been a sideshow -- has dominated his radar screen since he became president.

Both Clarke and former Treasury Secretary Paul O'Neill have attested to Bush's determination to get rid of Saddam Hussein from day one.

It was a policy in search of justification. And his ongoing attempts to connect the 9-11 tragedy with Saddam Hussein would be laughable if they weren't so blatantly dishonest.

I hope she'll investigate and write an article about those idiots.

7. Little Helen and her mighty pen

Clobber these idiots every time.

I hope she laughs at their ignorance and ignores their personal attacks.

8. I would be surprised.

She may check out the website, bless her eyes, but I'd be shocked if she gave that group the attention they crave. They don't deserve the waste of even two seconds.
