fantapolitica
humorous look at Italian politics (bilingual)Wednesday, March 24, 2004
I think that the notorious August 2002 background briefing tells us nothing about Clarke's true opinions or about his honesty and integrity. Delivering the talking points to the press is part of the job.
he says he kept doing it because he was really interested in fighting cyberterrorism. That means the virus jerks temporarily kept Richard Clarke on Bush admin message. One more reason to hate them.
Clarke is not pure unmixed extasy (the emotion not the drug) for us Bush haters.
otice that some of the points we use to bash Bush are now inoperative, because Clarke says that they were Clarke's calls.
He says that and the secret service decided to send Bush to Offut so no more Bush was a coward on the run cracks.
He says that and the FBI decided to allow the Saudis including Bin Ladens to leave the country, so no more tinhat speculation that this was done to hide the arbusto petroleum-al Qaeda link.
If it is not true he loses credibility. If it is true, those decisions don't reflect on Bush.
I do like the thought of Clarke sending Bush to the wonderfully named base.
I wonder if "go to Offut" could become slang for "you procastinated way to long and messed up big time" or maybe "Offut you " .
Would be grim if "get off it" were convused with "get Offut" a message to al Qaeda about how to kil Bush. That could lead to some innocent person becoming an angel before their time what with Bush's enthusiasm for the death penalty.
