HERE WE GO AGAIN

So Bush admits to leaking the info that outed Plame, BUT...he declassified the info before he told Golem to tell "scooter" (my parents had a siamese cat named scooter that lived under the console TV stereo thingy...like a freak ) to let the info out. He admits this but with the added rationale that he "declassified" the info so americans could "know the truth" about this lie of a war.
I have a couple of questions about this. Number 1 is why is this the first we're hearing about this decision to "declassify the information so americans could know the truth" about what a threat Iraq was...lets look at this on it's face. What doe's Plame's status as a CIA operative have to do with Iraq being a threat? Why wasn't Bush blowing his own horn about this when it happened? Something along the lines of " This intervention is SO important that I have declassified sensitive documents to show you, the american sheep I mean... people why I'm doing it. That would have been heroic, and right up there with the decision to incinerate Hiroshima. Except Bush didn't do that, and it isn't anywhere close to Hiroshima, plus we fucking started it. It's not like Iraq hit Pearl Harbor.
Well, because it's bullshit, that's why.
This was a payback deal from the get go. Wilson called bullshit and he could'nt get away with that could he?
My second question is why are they continually getting away with this shit? I would say that the majority of people don't know how to deal with borderline personalities and that while it's generally diagnosed in females (Condoleeza Rice) males are not excluded.
Back in the day, I used to do alot of work with people with borderline personality disorder. They had thier own reality and were very good at convincing people that it was THE reality. And the general response was to hammer them with the facts, regardless of the smoke they tried to blow up our asses. After a while, they would just give it up, and own up to the constructs of the pathology.
But not before they up the stakes to protect themselves...now, when you're dealing with a 15 year old you get splitting and manipulating of the adults (15 year old = Bush et al, adults = us, the american people ) escalating sometimes to the point of self mutilation ( Iraq ) to distract us from whats really going on ( greed and corruption ) all the way up to the most extreme reaction, a suicide attempt ( invade and/or nuke Iran ). But if you back them into a corner and keep hitting them with the facts in a unified (dems) way, they always fold. Always.
But you have to be unified, and relentless in stating the facts. And that's not happening. Any hole is an avenue of escape for a borderline, and we need to close the holes.
If we don't, the borderline wins...leaving a swath of destruction in thier path.
Kinda like what's happening now, huh?

I was talking to my friend Mozel the other day at the central store about all of this and he shared this with me...I liked it and I'm sharing it with you.

"If California is on the west coast, and you're driving east...you ain't ever gonna get to California".

Word.
