With Attorney General Alberto "Fredo" Gonzales under fire, possibly facing perjury charges and investigation by a special prosecutor after his fiery hearing yesterday (see story below), and with Harriet Miers and Josh Bolten facing contempt of Congress hearings this morning, George Bush had no choice but to address the situation Tuesday morning.
In his speech at Charleston Air Force Base, he took the time to remind all Americans of what is really important. Namely, that we should all be scared shitless because the evildoers hate our freedoms and want to kill us all.
"The facts are that Al Qaeda terrorists killed Americans on 9/11, they're fighting us in Iraq and across the world, and they are plotting to kill Americans here at home again," Bush told a contingent of troops. "Those who justify withdrawing our troops from Iraq by denying the threat of Al Qaeda in Iraq and its ties to Osama bin Laden ignore the clear consequences of such a retreat." Wait a minute George. You're STILL trying to connect Iraq to 9/11? Please. You're going to have to do better than that.
Bush referred throughout his speech to what he said was newly declassified intelligence in his effort to draw connections between the Al Qaeda group in Iraq and the central Al Qaeda leadership that is believed to be operating from the Pakistan-Afghanistan border region. Oh, new intelligence? Maybe you can show us some of this "newly declassified" evidence to back up your claims.
But the White House and intelligence officials declined to provide any detail on the intelligence reports that Bush cited, including their titles, dates and origins. Yeah, that's what I thought. Crying boogie-man to try to distract us from the crimes being committed by you and your people. Newsflash George - it's not working anymore. Not even with your 25%.
