Bush Vindicated on Uranium-from-Africa Statement; Media Prepares for 24/7 Coverage
The inquiry conducted by Lord Hutton regarding the British Government's use of WMD intelligence in making the case for war is about to conclude that indeed, the British Government did have clear and convincing evidence that Saddam Hussein was trying to buy uranium from Niger.
Just. Like. Bush. Said. In. That. State. Of. The. Union.
Right now, my sources* inform me that the mainstream media is about to report this nonstop for three weeks, just the way they reported (falsely) that Bush lied in stating these facts.
My sources* further tell me to be ready for the 24/7 full-court media press on this, and as we speak Campbell Brown is preparing to ask John Kerry all sorts of tough questions about his previous claims that Bush "misled" us into war.
Chris Matthews, in particular, will use his show for nothing but hour-long mea culpas for a month.
Get ready for the whirlwind of coverage!
* My "sources" consist of:
1) "Smitty," a 77-year-old shut-in suffering from chronic schizophrenic dementia, and
2) his best friend, a foul-mouthed, time-travelling bologna sandwich named "Johnny Coldcuts," who speaks to him in nonstop vulgarities and enigmatic riddles about the future.
