It's because he spoke of "World War" and because of yesterday's revelation of Richard Clarke, which just confirms how DANGEROUS Bush and his cronies are (see below):



Quote:
(CBS) Former White House terrorism advisor Richard Clarke tells Correspondent Lesley Stahl that on Sept. 11, 2001, and the day after - when it was clear al Qaeda had carried out the terrorist attacks - the Bush administration was considering bombing Iraq in retaliation.



Clarke's exclusive interview will be broadcast on 60 Minutes, Sunday, March 21 at 7 p.m. ET/PT.



Clarke was surprised that the attention of administration officials was turning toward Iraq when he expected the focus to be on al Qaeda and Osama bin Laden.



"They were talking about Iraq on 9/11. They were talking about it on 9/12," says Clarke.



The top counter-terrorism advisor, Clarke was briefing the highest government officials, including President Bush and Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, in the aftermath of the September 11 attacks.



"Rumsfeld was saying we needed to bomb Iraq....We all said, 'but no, no. Al Qaeda is in Afghanistan," recounts Clarke, "and Rumsfeld said, 'There aren't any good targets in Afghanistan and there are lots of good targets in Iraq.' I said, 'Well, there are lots of good targets in lots of places, but Iraq had nothing to do with [the September 11 attacks].'"



Clarke goes on to explain what he believes was the reason for the focus on Iraq.



"I think they wanted to believe that there was a connection [between Iraq and al Qaeda], but the CIA was sitting there, the FBI was sitting there, I was sitting there, saying, 'We've looked at this issue for years. For years we've looked and there's just no connection,'" says Clarke.



Clarke, who advised four presidents, reveals more about the current administration's reaction to terrorism in his new book, "Against All Enemies."

I don't give a F-U-C-K about what most Europeans think these days. G-d bless America!



Death to all terrorist scum. President Bush is right. You are either with us or against us. There is no neutrality in this war.

The real reason Europeans are not impressed: IT'S POLITICALLY CORRECT NOT TO BE!!!



Note: Until you can get off the PC bandwagon and think for yourselves, you'll never really know what is going on.

One doesn't need political correctness. Watching Don Rumsfeld, caugth in the act of lying, on "Face The Nation" with your common sense switched on suffices to become "not impressed" with the administrations line in that particular question.

Scepticism is healthy.



Btw, why is useful idiot Novak still with CNN? Shouldn't he be in camp X-ray as a confirmed threat to the national security?



Where is the Patriot Act when you need it? ;)
