DUPLICITY
According to yesterday's USA TODAY, prior to the decision to invade Iraq, the Bush Administration received numerous reports from intelligence and security agencies predicting a strong insurgency in the case of occupation. This was at the same time Dick Cheney and the Donald were telling us that we would be WELCOMED AS LIBERATORS! Obviously, the administration deliberately misled the people and Congress in order to sell the war!
So how is it the administration was so taken by surprise by the size and strength of the insurgency? According to Zbigniew Brzezinski (National Security Advisor to Jimmy Carter), the Bush administration repeated the welcomed liberators lie so often, "they came to believe their own propaganda"!
To deliberately mislead the people and Congress is criminal. For people who have been around politics as long as Richard Chaney and Donald Rumsfeld to be guilty of falling for their own propaganda is just unforgivable!
