Shift Stories, Debunked Lies

In the Washington Post, an article on shifting U.S. rhetoric. The basic story: Bush silent on missing weapons, going back to "War on Terror" story. While U.S. inspectors in Iraq might be optimistic about someday finding weapons of mass destruction, the Bush Administration has stopped talking about them (probably hoping everyone will forget their threat was the stated reason for war). I'm sure they conducted enough polls to realize that mainstream Americans are finding the WMD stories increasingly fishy. In response, the official U.S. rationale has now shifted back to the "War on Terror" angle. No matter than U.S occupation forces have also come up empty-handed on any links between Saddam Hussein and Osama bin Laden. And never mind that it's come out that paid Saudi government officials put up U.S. rent money for two of the 9/11 hijackers. Waffling stories are a sign that critical questioning of the Bush Administration policies is having an effect. Let's keep debunking the lies!
