Getting at the truth

Some of George Bush’s critics steadfastly asked before the invasion of Iraq that George Bush secure a referendum from the United Nations to Invade Iraq. Some of those critics voted for George Bush to go to war but not to over ride the UN. To strengthen the President’s hand does not mean following behind a trumped up cause for war. George Bush low approval ratings at this moment in history reveals a turning point in the faith the American people have in their President. The question is not whether his critics are trying to rewrite history, the question is whether his administration doctored intelligence for the cause of war. Using patriotism and 9/11 to stir the pot of vigilantism has lost its thunder. Karl Rove will have to go back to the drawing board. Too many are wise to the Bush administration’s rallying tools for a war fever. Those tools seem to be fading into a background of deceit that have given life to the newly revived Senate investigation of pre-war intelligence.
