Ya, label everybody who disagrees with you and you can dismiss their
arguments
without actually considering them. Good sign of an open mind.

If it was not a lie not being sure about something you take your country to
war about
is inexucsable and grossly negligent. Unless of course you lied because you
were going
to attack anyway.

An obvious lie, since no significant WMD have been found to date.

Now who's lying?


All of the above.


One of the more difficult lessons every parent has to teach their children
is the difference between a lie and a mistake. It takes some time but
brighter children figure it out.

Sadly, the pundits who infest political capitols and the ranks of the

fourth
estate either are not that bright or choose to disregard the difference.

Or, put another way, a disingenuous media "talking head" is as least as
dangerous as a disingenous politician (or "intelligence expert").

If, by any act, error, or omission, I have, intentionally or
unintentionally, displayed any breedist, disciplinist, sexist, racist,
culturalist, nationalist, regionalist, localist, ageist, lookist, ableist,
sizeist, speciesist, intellectualist, socioeconomicist, ethnocentrist,
phallocentrist, heteropatriarchalist, or other violation of the rules of
political correctness, known or unknown, I am not sorry and I encourage

you
to get over it.
