Well, somebody had to… NY Times Bush tries to have the best of both worlds. With a fallguy in place, he wasted no time announcing that he considered the uranium issue closed (Salon). With his bullying and stonewalling ways with the press, I’m sure any reporter who tries from here on to bring up the issue at any of the infrequent press conferences Bush deigns to give will be ignored or chastised. Yet Bush has complete confidence in Tenet and the CIA (Salon); no heads have to roll… because, in reality, Bush clearly wasn’t troubled by the deception. Yet, hopefully, the credibility gap over the uranium issue won’t stop here (NY Times editorial) and, in any case, is the tip of the iceberg about mounting disillusionment with the Bush agenda (Washington Post) and the baldfaced deception used to promulgate it.
