Cats4ever Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 This was the fraudster who helped convince Bushie, Cheney, Rummie, Pearlie, Wolfie and the other schemer/dreamers that the troops would be welcomed with roses strewn at their feet. Iraq would take to democracy and become a friend of Israel. He was even promoted as a possible head of state. Well that all turned out trumps.

LomSak27 Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 He sold the goods and they, NeoCons, Jr Bush, con media, bought it. I imagine FOX news and the Dredge Report will, ahem, step lightly around this pile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

impulse Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 He sold the goods and they, NeoCons, Jr Bush, con media, bought it. I imagine FOX news and the Dredge Report will, ahem, step lightly around this pile. More likely, the NeoCons begged for "the goods" and he provided them.
