Truth to Power

“Got to give the President his due”

Funny, his due is jail, so its hard to fathom what this fascist fanboy is belching about:

O’Hanlon: Bush deserves credit for Iraq being free of WMD.

Last night, CBS News reviewed President Bush’s legacy and noted that it will largely be defined by his misguided invasion of Iraq. During its report, Iraq war apologist Michael O’Hanlon recalled that Bush went to war in a “deliberately cavalier way,” but added that Americans should “be fair” and give Bush credit for their being no WMD in Iraq:

O’HANLON: But let’s also be fair. Iraq now seems to be a quasi-functioning democracy, without weapons of mass destruction, without genocides against its own citizens or attacks against its neighbors. So, to some extent, we’ve got to give the president his due.</em>

Don’t know about you, but if somebody had to lie to praise me, I’d feel a bit…worthless?
