The adults are in charge now.
Edited on Sat Apr-17-04 12:41 PM by TruthIsAll
Jan 2001
C: Ok, let’s do it. Get Saddam.
R: Right. The adults are in charge now.
P: We can’t start a war now. There will be hell to pay.
B: Ok, let’s hold off. Bring me a plan on how to do it.

April 2001
C: We need that pipeline. Ken Lay and my buddies at Halliburton want it. Let’s go.
P: No. Don’t do it. He’s not a threat.
R: We can say he’s got WMD and is getting ready to attack us.
P: Jeez, I just got in. Let’s get the tax cut through Congress first.
R: We need a defining event. Like Pearl Harbor.
C: Ok, let’s get to work.
P: I’ll deliver $43 million to the Taliban.
A: I’ll pull the FBI off the Bin Laden/Saudi/Oil/money trail.
R: I’ll get the Pentagon to avoid doing any hijack attack simulations.
C: We’ll make sure that Clarke is out of the loop.
B: I’ll go on vacation for a month.

Early Sept. 2001
B: Tenet is warning us. I have the Aug 6 PDB.
C: No big deal. It’s in the works. Do nothing. Keep clearing brush.
A: We ignored the Moussaui info from the field.
B: Jebbie will help on this. Martial Law in FL
R: We’ll keep you out of harms way.
C: We ought to buy some airline puts.
:
Mid Sept. 2001
R: It was Bin-Laden. Get Saddam!
P: Wait. He had nothing to do with it.
B: Fuck Saddam. We’ll take him out.
P: Get Osama first.
C: P, you are a major league asshole.

7. "The adults are in charge now"
I actually had some asshole tell me that, right out of the blue. It was about 2 years ago when I was wearing my DU tee shirt. I guess clothes DO make the man!
