Colin Powell on Letterman tonight. Desperate spin mode. "Iraq is Great!"
Edited on Fri Sep-26-03 02:43 AM by JohnOneillsMemory
A true sign of BFEE desperation to send their human credential to the David Letterman show to lie about how well things are going in Iraq. He played all his greatest hits:

1)Ignore David Kay. We're still looking at potential sites of WMD. We'll find'em.
2)The Iraqis all love us and just a few ingrates are killing us.
3)Did ya see those mass graves from Saddam gassing folks in '88?
4)Afghanistan is ready for dinner parties and vacation homes!

-and more! As seen on TV. Not only do you get the steak knives...

Letterman asked jokingly,"So how long do you think California will still be a state?"
Colin replied,"Well, we've offered it back to Russia but they declined, too much trouble..."

Thanks for admitting Calif. is enemy territory to the BFEE...

2. Lynne Cheney was on last night...
spewing the same drivel.

It's over. They are desperate and floundering. It's only a matter of time before it all comes crashing down...

3. Why does Dave give them the airtime?
He did ask real questions of Powell, no softballs...

4. I was embarrassed for Powell, having to lie his ass off.
everything is fine! The Germans are with us! We're pals again! Same with the French! We got 30 countries with us (not mentioning that half of them are on the order of Liutonia (see: John Candy, SCTV) and their contribution was to send a box of stationery.

11. I prefer Harry Belafonte's analysis better
Colon is not an uncle Tom. That term is too racially divisive. Harry used a better analysis to explain Mr. Bowel's behavior.

12. HE IS A BUSH WHORE TO THE CORE
there's no turning back for Mr. Powell. Not only has he sold himself out, he has sold out his own country. He is sickening.

7. Their 'human credential:' priceless
It would also be hysterically funny if it weren't so true. Powell may well be the only full-blooded mammalian in this whole nest of Reptiles.

(See Icke, David, "Not Just For Lunatics Anymore")

13. "Offered it back to Russia"???????
This is the Secretary of State talking?

We know Powell isn't nearly the dumbass Shrub is. Maybe there's something in the water down in DC...

(That would explain a lot)
