Talk about hypocrisy, the Bush White House is outraged over

[rustydog]

Newsweek printing a story based on bad "intelligence" and are balming them for the deaths of dozens of innocent people, yet give out the Presidential Medal of Freedom to the two who used bad intelligence as evidence to go to war resulting in the deaths of over 1600 Americans and over 50,000 innocent iraqi citizens.

Shit, based on the way Bush runs his administration, Newsweek should get the Pulitzer in reporting!

6. But Bush isn't in the business of being right.

He's in the business of making firm decisions, leading bravely and decisively, and being a brave decisive leader--and strong, being strong.

Other people have the job of being right. Right or wrong, he's our Supreme Decisive Strong Leader.

a first place on their call-arounds with leaks.
