Bush And Kelly Get To The Point About Tribalism
George W. Bush's recent speech and John Kelly's attack on an irresponsible Congresswoman say in different ways the same thing - enough with the tribalism. It also illustrates how fighting for values works.

Syria And Iraq's Chemical Weapons
The "Bush Lied" talking point was never credible, and now it appears some of the N-B-C weaponry Iraq built and then shipped out to avoid discovery is now being used by Syria.

CIA Admits Bush Defeated The Enemy And Obama Let The Enemy Live
The CIA's director made a huge admission - under George W. Bush Islamo-Arab imperialists - now rebranded as ISIS - were defeated, and under Obama they've been resuscitated and grown by 4,400%.
Contrast this with Liveshot Kerry insulting humanity with his moral equivalence rap at the State Department.

The US Should Have Stayed In Iraq
Because Iraq was the strongest cause of Islamo-Arab imperialism and the US was manifestly winning. Then Obama threw it all away and let the enemy win.

NY Times Partially Vindicates Bush on WMD
The NY Times published a piece on Iraq's chemical weapons: by C.J. Chivers. It makes explosive claims about chemical weapons found in Iraq between 2004 and 2011 and it winds up - despite the usual cherry picking of facts by the Times - providing vindication for George W. Bush.
Some more on this can be found here. See also this 2014 piece.

The Bush Deficits That Never Were
The failure of Obamanomics has brought out the desperation defense - that it was Bush's fault. But as usual the facts say otherwise.

Reminder Of The Truth About Iraq
Because the "Bush Lied People Died" mantra isn't going away, some fact-checking remains necessary.

Joe Wilson And Iraq's Niger Uranium
Why the left keeps denying Saddamite Iraq was building nuclear weapons is a rhetorical mystery - I say rhetorical because the reason they deny it is obvious - to acknowledge that Iraq was building nuclear weapons is to acknowledge that Bush was right, the liberals' eight-year policy of refusing to act on the building threat was wrong, and the philosophy behind the popular bumper sticker "War is NOT the answer" is not just wrong, but dishonest.
Which leads to this look back at the 500 tons of weapons-grade "yellowcake" uranium (which had zero peaceful application and had undergone some enrichment) found by the US Army at the Al-Tuwaitha nuclear research center (see also this 2008 followup). As the piece's author Rick Moran notes, the site where the Iraqi weapons uranium was stored was under the supervision of the International Atomic Energy Agency, which ostensibly was charged with making sure Iraq didn't use it for weapons but basically didn't try to stop Iraq from stockpiling such "yellowcake" uranium, and it offers some insight (conspicuously missing from mainstream coverage of "Broadway Joe" Wilson and his phony search for Iraqi efforts to acquire yellowcake from Niger) into why there is such a bureaucratic snit over President Bush's remarks that Iraq sought this yellowcake from Niger.
Basically what is coming out is that Broadway Joe Wilson was not a courageous whistleblower, but an errand boy for an intelligence agency that wanted to spike data supporting war. The CIA suddenly found it had underestimated the enemy's potential and worked to cover its butt - Saddamite Iraq was trying to build nuclear weapons and the CIA, Joe Wilson, and his wife Valerie Plame were fighting against US interests on this matter.
And they accuse Bush of politicizing intelligence?
