And the hits just keep on coming...
Edited on Fri Oct-08-04 10:21 AM by sfecap
Let's review this week:

1. Rummy admits to no link between Saddam and Al Queda. (But he was misunderstood...)

2. Bremer says that there weren't enough troops in Iraq to do the job. (But he was misunderstood...)

3. ISG releases scathing report that confirms no WMD, no capability to produce WMD, no chemicals, no nukes, Saddam was bluffing to intimidate Iran. (But the oil-for-food program was corrupt, and no, we won't release the names of US companies that aided the corruption...)

4. The chimp's numbers are slipping in the polls. (But the terraists are targeting the schoolkids!)

5. The jobs report falls FAR short of the forecast. (But we've turned the corner!)

President Kerry...sounds nice, doesn't it? :bounce:

6. a long time ago...

11. It was a Greek general named Pyrrhus
He said, "Another such victory over the Romans, and we are undone."

Hence the term "pyrrhic victory"

8. I've wondered with Condi, Rummy and others
but mostly about Bush - WHAT DOES THIS MAN NEED TO DO TO LOSE HIS JOB? Why is he so high in the polls? He has been a total fu*k up since day one.
:wtf:

9. 6. Israel is blaming the Egypt bombings on Al Queda
Which would give lie to Bush's claim of reduced terrorism and that 75% of Al Queda leadership has been captured or killed. . .
