It is almost sad to watch the damage control that is being scrambled in the wake of this book, which just came out. The media has said that there is nothing in the book that has not already been speculated or validated already. Of course the only ones who are surprised are the people being fingered inside the book. Some people think Scott is a bad man, who should've kept his mouth shut. Well, that is an interesting stance. I guess you could describe these people as the type who like to be lied to, or stolen from, in which case they must have been happy through the last 2 presidential terms. Other people are truly shocked and amazed that what many have been saying and protesting for the last 5 years happens to be true. One can be nothing but happy that these persons have been disillusioned. I am giddy with joy, for now no one can call me a fringe lunatic when I say the White House has been bought, the war is a lie, and the administration is making a profit off the chaos and carnage of war.
This could be taken as harsh, maybe. Read the book. Tell me if the facts don't point toward these conclusions directly. I know there are many who enjoy the designer blinders they wear everyday, but this book is not conducive to that condition. I'll save you some time and spell it out for you. The Chaney administration conned America into a fabricated war. Then they privatized the military so that the companies they are tied to could make outrageous profits (Chaney was a big shot in Haliburton, president maybe). The companies who are contracted to the war got there with no bid contracts. Then they had to prolong the war so that the profits could continue (McCain). Not too hard to believe when you look at all the facts. I doubt Mctellin will go that far in his book, but the evidence exists.
Here's a pickle, what are you giong to do about it? So they lied to you, murdered your kids and robbed you blind, so what? Executive privilage is the nail in your wheel, there is nothing you can do to these people in the legal sense. They get indicted, they get pardoned, they laugh in our faces. Thats the way the cookie crumbles.
I have great admiration for the man, Scott McTellin. He's taking a great risk exposing himself in this manner. One day we may quote this book in the history books, but for now he is a talking point. I'm glad he's said something, even if what he has said has been tailored. Those in the white house say that a straight forward concerned Scott is not the Scott they knew. Strange. Maybe Scott is Bipolar, who can say? What we can say is that Scott is not saying anything the left wing has not been chanting from the side of the road or writing on a card board sign for sometime now. I wonder if he will sight 9/11 as a deadly farce, a catalyst to engender the atmosphere needed to make war in the middle east with the sorts of lied we were fed. I wonder..........
