A Remembrance of Amnesia.
I feel horribly behind on my journaling, mostly because I've been rather busy since work yesterday. Since I haven't the time to dedicate to a decent post about my life, I'll talk a bit about politics.
I was listening to Le Show on Sunday, which confirmed something I'd been wondering since Dubya's UN speech, namely that the current administration is, in fact, condemning Iraq for its invasion of Iran. Further, it does so despite the fact that the United States was encouraging Iraq to invade, helped them invade by giving them weapons and intelligence, then continued to give Iraq weapons and intelligence. Why hasn't anyone been saying this recently? Why hasn't the White House at least attempted to reconcile this hypocrisy? If we're responsible for for giving Iraq the knowledge to start its weapons program way-back-when, why don't we just, as Shearer tongue-in-cheekily put it, "Invade us for helping the Bad Guys? We wouldn't even have to worry about moving troops!"
I guess everyone will forget again as long as Ashcroft can promenade some new alleged Al-Qaida members.
