Well, yeah, but everything was Bush's fault.

The great thing about conspiracy theory is that if it turns out to be right, you can claim how brilliant you are, and if it doesn't? It's because you were on to them.

I figure conspiracy theory love comes from the fact that America's entire understanding of politics begins with the philosophy that whomever initiated the smelting was clearly therefore involved in the delting.

"transparency and the rule of law will be the touchstones of this presidency" - Barack Obama

I give Jon Stewart credit for covering this, the hypocrisy of most of the left (and the media) is really something to behold, though.

Imagine Ari Fleischer coming forward while Bush was still in office and admitting that say, the Iraq WMD claims were knowingly false.
Imagine the absolute orgy of coverage and condemnation by these hypocrites.

It's really stunning, folks.

Presenting false intelligence as a pretense for war and not telling the public details about military policy are two very different things.

Well, Mr. Gibbs is admitting an intentional cover-up of a government program which, by one senator's estimation, has killed 4,700 people. Coincidentally, that is the approximate number of US servicemen killed in Iraq.

In my opinion your attempt to rationalize is failing.

wait, we aren't blaming Lewinski any more?

This is Jimmy Carter's fault, or is it Nixon's?
