What's he on about now?

In case the articles, essays and opinions throughtout this site just weren't enough for you, here's my online diary (a.k.a. 'blog'). It's as close as you'll come to the inside of my head, so don't say I didn't warn you
(and remember, you can always e-mail me if you love or loathe anything you're about to read)...

WE DIDN'T LIE, YOU JUST HEARD US WRONG

The Bush administration gets more horrifying with each passing week. They're now saying that they have never alleged a link between Saddam Hussein and the events of September 11, 2001. A recent poll shows that 70 percent of Americans believe that the Iraqi dictator was in some way behind the attacks on New York City and Washington but Bush is now suggesting that he had nothing to do with creating that impression while beginning his war on Iraq. It's unbelievable -- I'd have more respect for the man if he just came out and said, "Whoops, I thought I was on to something there but I was wrong."

VP Dick Cheney has been particularly shifty -- getting caught in 'mis-statements' he made just days prior -- and the Boston Globe's Derrick Jackson takes him to task for it here. More damning, however, is psychiatrist Robert McKinnon's condemnation of the current US administration as "arrogant, self-important, unempathic, careless of the future and ethically primitive."

Now, I realize that I'm just a lone Canadian with no influence whatsoever on American politics but I beg any US voters reading this to please do whatever you can to prevent these people from gaining a second term. Things are getting worse all the time with this gang in charge.
