Embittered Insiders Turn Against Bush

[SHRED]

The "inside out" corrosion begins to heat up.

"There are a lot of lives that are lost," Adelman said in an interview last week. "A country's at stake. A region's at stake. This is a gigantic situation. . . . This didn't have to be managed this bad. It's just awful."

Embittered Insiders Turn Against Bush

The weekend after the statue of Saddam Hussein fell, Kenneth Adelman and a couple of other promoters of the Iraq war gathered at Vice President Cheney's residence to celebrate. The invasion had been the "cakewalk" Adelman predicted. Cheney and his guests raised their glasses, toasting President Bush and victory. "It was a euphoric moment," Adelman recalled.

Forty-three months later, the cakewalk looks more like a death march, and Adelman has broken with the Bush team. He had an angry falling-out with Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld this fall. He and Cheney are no longer on speaking terms. And he believes that "the president is ultimately responsible" for what Adelman now calls "the debacle that was Iraq."

1. I read this article this morning and I loved it..except for the fact

that Bush and Cronies have us so far into the dodo that even John Wayne couldn't fight our way out in an Oscar winning Western..This president deserves to be impeached and tried for war crimes and I'm being Sunday nice.

2. If you've ever raised turkeys,

you know that they mob any bird that looks weak or sickly.

Once they get started, they don't stop until they tear the poor bastard to shreds.

Happy Thanksgiving, Dubya!
