Feingold says Condi making things up - Dems to announce Plan

[jojog]

The Wisconsinite pointed out that it was the Bush State Department that issued a report in 2001stating al Qaeda was not operating in Iraq. While noting that the terrorist network existed in 25 other countries, including the United States, it did not include Iraq on the list.

Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, asked whether Iraq was a hotbed for insurgents by Newsweek last month, said, “The argument that I find rather bizarre is that somehow we created more of them by going after it, when, in fact, I think what had happened was that they had not been challenged… And now they’re being challenged.”

Feingold said her statement “makes absolutely no sense.”

“She is just literally making things up, saying that Iraq was a hotbed of terrorism before we went there,” he averred. “The recruiting is done because we are there.”

6. I love Feingold - he doesn't let anyone get away with much.

And I refuse to take this thread away to another subject about his recent actions.

He has potential in 2008. I'm paying attention.

9. She finds that argument "rather bizarre"?

The idea that we created terrorism in iraq by invading the place? Jesus, woman, I find YOU rather bizarre. How does she sleep at night, anyway?
