Clue Not Times

I’m liking this.  The New York Times editorial board is getting all cocky and tabloid-like.  The New York Times editorial board thinks it really has Bushitler this time. Check this: 

To understand this twisted tale, it is important to recall how Mr. Feith got into the creative writing business. Top administration officials, especially Mr. Cheney, had long been furious at the C.I.A. for refusing to confirm the delusion about a grand Iraqi terrorist conspiracy, something the Republican right had nursed for years. Their frustration only grew after 9/11 and the C.I.A. still refused to buy these theories.

Mr. Wolfowitz would feverishly sketch out charts showing how this Iraqi knew that Iraqi, who was connected through six more degrees of separation to terrorist attacks, all the way back to the 1993 World Trade Center bombing.

We’ve got feverish sketching of grand conspiracy theories in the Build-A-War workshop.  From what could be the greatest news organization in the world. Which employs people like John Burns, who is able to see past the crap to understand where evil resides.  NYT Ed Board doesn’t give a damn about overflowing mass graves, at least not when George Bush does.  NYT Ed Board doesn’t give a damn about dangerous, destablizing influences in one of the most critical strategic regions in the world. NYT Ed Board wishes it had trusted the word of a megalomaniacal mass murderer.  

It’s all the in the rearview mirror, but strangely, the NYT Ed Board considers that to be a forward view. The NYT Ed Board nitpicks, distorts, comes up with clever lines, avoids issues of dire importance such as how are we going to resolve a critical situation in Iraq without opening the door to mass murder and how are we going to hamstring the nuke-happy mullahs in Iran. When our nation faces dire challenges to the ideals the entire world looks to us to defend, yet again, the New York Times has chosen to pretend this conflict is a manufactured thing.

    We seem to be living in an era of mass hysteria which rules every effort to ignore, deny, or otherwise blank-out the fact that we are in danger in the West, not just from the rabid primitivism of murderous Islamists, but equally, if not more so, from the fact that we’ve lost the anchor of the Enlightenment that gave us the intellectual wherewithal to properly battle such atavism. I am as disgusted with those who think we can fight a half-war, with all the sensitivity demanded on our over-wrought university campuses, as I am with those whose only interest in the war–or in American interests and security in general–is as a vehicle in an obscene power struggle. The thoughtlessness, and the childishness, and the even greater dangers these incur–beggars belief.

    Osama-Iraq Connection

    Interesting video courtesy of Power Line.

    Of course, everybody knows there was no connection between bin Laden and Iraq. I wonder why ABC News has been hiding this?

    They have to keep spinning and dodging and dreaming up new conspiracies. To stop means to admit their whole world view is flawed, and that they are not the masters of the universe they thought they were.

    The NYT editorial board sounds like some ill informed little troll.

    A few years ago the NYT was convinced not only of those ties to terrorism but to the wmd stockpiles as well. The NYT lied and people died.

    In truth I think it is naive to believe there were not contacts between Saddam and AlQaida. and I also think it is naive to believe that all those intel people from all over the world were wrong about Saddam and his weapons. He just got rid of them is all.

    How is it that they know what goes on in the minds of people who won’t talk to them, won’t even let them ride on the same airplane.
