Toto has pulled the curtain back from George W. Bush's facade and most of the country, like Dorothy, are finally starting to wake up.
Bush has become more and more of an embarrassment and his mumbling and stumbling, but yet still scripted, teleconference with soldiers in Iraq on Thursday just may prove to be one the last straws this strawman gets away with.
The man is unraveling...And, he and those around him, like his spokesman, Scott McClellan are stoned-cold liars.
McClellan said Thursday's event was coordinated with the Defense Department but that
"the troops were expressing their own thoughts". That's not true.
McClellan also said "I think all they were doing was talking to the troops and letting them know what to expect... and that the president wanted to talk with
"troops on the ground who have firsthand knowledge about the situation" .
The fact of the matter is, Bush spoke to three captains and a master sergeant and frankly, Scottie, we who know, know that we haven't been getting many reports of captains being blown up with IEDs and not a whole lot of female master sergeants either; Especially when that female master sergeant interviewed, Corine Lombardo
"works in public affairs as a spokesperson to the media". Sounds like 'Green Zone' duty to me.
(Msgt, and part-time actress-for this role anyway, Lombardo is pictured below, just over the Wizard's left shoulder. And BTW, could someone tell GW not wave at the TV? ...Remember when he waved to Stevie Wonder?)
When asked to comment on Bush's 'publicity stunt', Paul Rieckhoff, director of the New York-based Operation Truth, an advocacy group for U.S. veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan, denounced the event as a
"carefully scripted publicity stunt." Five of the 10 U.S. troops involved were officers...If he wants the real opinions of the troops, he can't do it in a nationally televised teleconference. He needs to be talking to the boots on the ground and that's not a bunch of captains".
Yeah Mr Wizard, you need to talk to some one like Spc. Sanders and not some female E6 from the "PR" department!
