Default The "O"s...

I wonder how the transitition will go. I bet Bush really helps Obama,
and gives him "all" of the information he will need to take over the
country. Not pass bunch of trap door policy and leave out important
information about little issues like "AlQueda" and possible threats to
the country. The Clinton staff was too busy taking the "W"s off of all
the keyboards, stealing furniture, trashing the offices, and setting
land mines for the incoming administration.

Bush is too good for that, even after listening to the lies of the DNC
for the last 8 years...

Say what you want, but I bet the Bush staff doesn't spend it's time
stealing the "O"s...
Read Richard Clarke's book "Against All Enemies". The cabinet, including
the National Security Advisor ignored Clarke's numerous warnings about Al
Queda. Clarke was a hold over from the Clinton administration and as
such, treated with disdain. He was the "Terrorism Czar" and probably knew
more on the subject of Al Queda than anyone else in government.
The focus was Iraq......7 days in office and the administration was
seriously talking about invading and deposing the governemet of Iraq.
This comes from "The Price of Loyalty" about former treasury secretary
Paul O'Neill.

When was Clarke's book written? Was it before or after he was pushed aside
by the Bush admin? Clarke appears to be an opportunist.

O'Neill is/was a twit.


After. It's hard to get people to write these "can you believe this sh*t"
kinds of books if they agree that driving the airplane into the ground is
the best course of action.
O'Neill has a strong resume and did great things at ALCOA, but he didn't buy
the party line and was told by Cheney to step down "for personal reasons",
like all who didn't do/think as told by Bush and Cheney or rather Cheney and
Bush. He also advised that naming Paulson as his successor was a mistake
which has proved true, especially with the (non) plan for the $700B bailout.
No plan and no budget- just gimme this incredible amount of taxpayer
dollars. Incredible.



And we aren't being told who got the damned money.
