"It appears not to be the case"....No Sh*t Sherlock

[chelsea0011]

Powell's comment Friday during news conference on way home from NATO meeting in Brussels concerning his WMD mobile trailer lab testimony to the UN on why we need to invade Iraq.

1. Would he be willing to say that in front of the Hague??

At the World Court? Perhaps that is the question that should be asked?

2. Come on Colin

avoid hellfire and come clean with everything.

4. He Will

Woodward's book will be a vehicle for rehabilitating Powell by sliming Cheney and Rummy and Wolfie.

6. He's planning to do the deathbed confessional thing

:puke:

3. You know what kills me about all this shit?

To paraphrase an oft asked question from Media Whores Online "Can you imagine if it was the Clinton administration, CAN YOU IMAGINE?"

5. 50,000 people have been killed in Iraq Powell.

7. Powell has always been a loyal servant

He believes it's best for the country "honor and duty", but he fails to realize what implications his UN address had on our Iraq involvement. He should come clean but he won't. He knows the bushies will seek to destroy him, though that would be tough.

9. and he's passing the buck: Powell says bad data misled him on Iraq

~snip~
It was presented to me in the preparation of that (portfolio of evidence) as the best information and intelligence that we had," he said. "They certainly indicated to me ... that it was solid.

"Now it appears not to be the case that it was solid,'' he said.

He called on a federal commission investigating prewar intelligence to examine how the data had been gathered.

The comments were an abrupt reversal for Powell, who had acknowledged disagreements among analysts but had not criticized the intelligence agencies.

8. What gets me....

is why that a mobile chemical weapons lab or generator would be tooling around the desert on a canvas covered flatbed truck. Kinda like wearing a dust mask 2 years after Chernobyl. It was way to goofy to be believable. Unless of course they removed the driver side floor so it could be powered like the Barney Rubble mobile.

10. But but didn't you see their impressive power point presentation?

I remember watching that on a portable TV Feb 5, 2003 and squinting at what looked like a cartoon when I got home I found out that indeed it was a photoshop job.

"These are not the actual trailers but they would look like this........."

Unbelieveable.

11. Is there anything not faith based
