And so any American who want patriotic credibility are watchng Frontline on PBS - The Dark Side on Tues 20 Jun 2006.

Who were bin Laden allies? Cheney and Rumsfeld who would not even commit US forces to Tora Bora. Why was Al Qaeda even found in Tora Bora? CIA, in frustration with Rumsfeld foot dragging, went into Tora Bora and found Al Qaeda.

Reams of other outright Cheney lies including "bin Laden and Saddam were allies" ... but then anyone would know that was false. This Frontline report demonstrates why those lies were repeatedly promoted. Why George Tenent and CIA (who were doing a 100% great job) instead are mislabeled as intelligence failures. Why even Tenent had to lie about 'slam dunk' when marginalized by Cheney, et al.

If you have the brain of a patriotic American, you know that it was Cheney, Rumsfeld, et al who were lying. Same people who were upset because CIA refused to report an alliance between Saddam and bin Laden. CIA would not report WMDs and would not report myths that politicians wanted. So CIA gets blamed. So Tenent gets fired.

Lies are exposed using first person interviews by those who saw what those lies, at the highest levels of government, did to even create a mythical threat and the Mission Accomplished war. Good people destroyed by a president whose reputation (like Nixon) is more important than America.

Repeatedly I would ask when are we going after bin Laden? The obvious answer was never, in part, because anti-Americans even in the Cellar supported a scumbag president. Of course, America still has made no serious effort to get bin Laden - and you should have no problem acknowledging that fact. That alone should be reason to call for impeachment. So why do Americans not do same? Because a Monica Lewinsky blow job is worthy of impeachment - but a president that protects bin Laden by being incompetent is not impeachable? In your face - are you a patriotic American, or do you forgive a current president who has a blow job mentality?

Frontline - The Dark Side. Yes they even show how an aluminum tube lie was created starting with Condi Rice. They show evidence of aluminum tubes from that secret government document - the NIE - was locked away and considered a pathetic joke by those who know.

Yes myths about aluminum tubes, Niger yellowcake, et al was so obvious that we even debated here for months. Yes some in the Cellar are more inspired by Oprah Winfrey logic to believe that scumbag president. Others who think like an engineer could therefore see through those lies.

Meanwhile every general who served in Iraq and has since retired has all but told you what a scumbag liar this president really is.

BTW, why were those myths of mobile biological labs created? In part because torture was used for a *confession*. Shocked? Only America’s greatest enemies torture - which tells you so much about the George Jr administration – all senior staff members and their president - Cheney. Oh. Americans don't really torture? And those 700 prisoners in Guantanamo - maybe only ten are guilty of anything. Being a scumbag is not an impeachable offense?
