NONE of the public discussion has even touched most of the insanity.
- As you point out, the doctrine of pre-emption itself remains hidden. - Also, the plundering of the Treasury to pay Bush cronies for "reconstruction" remains unmentioned. - The lie about al-Qaeda/Iraq ties is largely untouched. - The complicity of the media in building uncritical war hype is untouched. - The fact that the US has seized control of Iraq's oil is untouched. - The premeditation established by PNAC is largely untouched. - The joke of "building democracy in Iraq" goes unexamined. - The dozens of "terror alerts" with the useless "color code" goes largely uncommented upon. - Even the non-existent WMD are receiving relatively little attention compared to this one specific SOTU lie.
It's odd that with so much material to swing at, all of a sudden, this ONE very circumscribed aspect of the Iraq fiasco has been seized upon to create a growing scandal. Tip of the iceberg.
