JUST IN:STUPIDEST GUY ON EARTH SPEAKS--ALL is TOLD!

avatar

Just finished watching the Douglas make his case on The Daily Show...

While I've yet to watch the complete unedited interview on Comedy Central's website I intend too, BUT the gist of it is pretty simple really:
The problem with the Iraq war and run up to the war was NOT enough SPIN.
Sure, sure, there was a shout down campaign to silence dissent. Of course there was an organized, force multiplied disinformation campaign. AND of course Feith made no explanation for what effect PNAC's predetermined priority for the removal of Saddam Hussein (circa 1998) may have had on the advice and counsel given to the Bush administration in the run up to the war. No, no, the problem was the FAILURE to (spin)inform the public of all the super duper, extra delicious ideas they had as to why their preconceived notions were absolutely correct, even if they weren't. Don't remember it that way? That's cuz yous a dummy who don't listen --dummy, or so sayeth the Feith.
What's the most awesomeness about the whole thing, is that all Americans can now experience the type of torture formerly reserved for a few elite terror suspect (or a few hundreds, who the hell knows), and decide for themselves if its inhumane or not --waterboarding? No,no, this will have you scratching your own eyeballs out, even sweeter:

You can best promote the Big Lie by hyping and promoting the Big Liars.

Why is Jon Stewart giving this jerk a platform to sell books? Disappointing.
