Simply not possible.
Michael Moore produces way too much wind.
That may be, but an awful lot of people who'll see his flic some time
before
they enter the voting booth in November are going to believe his version
of the
truth and will be influenced by it. The administration hasn't yet caught
on to
the fact that a lot of people simply no longer believe their constantly
changing
rationales for entering the war against Iraq....you can't keep on changing
your
story without at least some of the audience figuring out that you're doing
it to
keep from having to tell the truth.
Constantly changing story? In late 2002 the White House published its case
against Iraq:
www.cnn.com/2002/US/09/12/iraq.report/
Looks like a lot of that claimed in that report has been born out by events
since; Saddam did indeed still have biological programs proceeding, he did
indeed conduct mass murder and bury his victims in mass graves, and as Bush
indicated yesterday when he said quite plainly that Mr. Al Zarqawi was
resident in Iraq before we attacked, he was indeed providing sanctuary and
support to various terrorists. That looks like a lot of the same old story
to me, not a "constantly changing" one.
