Unbelievable. Joe Scar had Paul effing Bremer on MJ today talking about Iraq...

That effer is giving advice about Iraq? REALLY?

Heh, Halperin asked him, essentially, why we should believe HIM after he screwed up the Iraq situation in the first place. Thomas roberts jumped on him and Bremer then fiddled with his ear mic, claiming it fell out of his ear...and essentially said "we are where we are."

He's got a lot of nerve talking on TV about Iraq...

Remember FEMA director "Blackie"? As Katrina raged and people drowned, he was buying new suits and getting hair styled, etc, so he'd look good for the cameras.
The basic tenet of BushCo was to appoint the most incompetent people possible. Then when they failed, it could be claimed "See, govt doesn't work".

It was more than I could tolerate so early. I don't want to hear one word from anyone who started that illegal war and occupation until there is live coverage of their trials at the Hague.

the guy was all over the place. He was essentially incoherent. I don't know what is going on with him that he thinks he can paper over his past by doing talk shows like MJ. Maybe he thinks he can rehab his image, remake himself, voila...and poof goes history...

Feith was somewhere else - expect Cheney and Rumsfeld and don't forget McBlood and Blanche Dubois are everywhere at the same time.

M$Greedia is shameless.
