i find it fast and last night animus in d_c_ racial mato
are just basically laid out the case for a war
crimes trial against george w_ bush dick cheney
uh... devils flights and donald rumsfeld
and paul wolfowitz
comments just
it was very was almost a prosecutor's briefing of course was based on the boat
by michael s coffin david corn called hubris
and it's interesting to see on the various progressive message boards in
fact are onboard overtime marvin dot com
you know some folks you know just lavishly praising rachel for pointing
that out
and others point out that
msnbc was running phil donahue in the run-up to the iraq war
he was the number one rated show on the network
and they fired him because he started criticizing
the run-up to the war in iraq
he was asking the the inconvenient questions like you know really w andy
seriously
what about the low incidence in what about that yela cake and uh... joe
wilson and
amend you know there was
there was a real debate i was on the air during that time there was yet just a
rowdy actually had
i had these people on my program
making their pitch
in new york times uh... the the we've got to go into a racks and and literally
saying things like
all you know this world pay for itself in its only gonna last a couple weeks is
not to worry and then of course required it is
let's go back to ninety eight to the project for new american century
and shannon ninety-nine when george bush
or making her school it's that if he became president he would
he would uh... and and he had a chance to data rack the way his daddy had done
he wouldn't make a mistake is daddy did in a way of the war last couple of days
he would get out
are having he would go all the way baghdad and he would be he would
you know hold that political capital through the next election cycle
and get done everything you want to get done
you have a successful presidency privatize social security
with the political capital he gary tried to
the first thing i was a gender during his uh... you know what his second term
started when george w_ bush a second term started in two thousand four when
he was
or two dozen five when he was in arenal agreed
but one of the so so any others this this kind of
tit for tat i did my personal take on it is uh...
you having all the media were corrupt and and are corrupt novels all the time
i still think that it was uh... pretty impressive
that that rachel did this last and that
it's a conversation that we need
in o_j_ by the has been put on the ninth circuit court of appeals the guys should
be
in the hague facing more crime tracking of the eighteen pm wrote
hinge on you who's teaching at berkeley
wrote the legal rationales for torture
dogfight and paul wolfowitz
and and and uh... dick cheney and and
don rumsfeld conspired to
to literally live
now whether they lied to the president or not is something we don't really know
they certainly like to colin powell
and he clearly knows that in fact is number two guy larry wilkerson crawled
persons
common around santa
and in fact has on this program
colonel moccasins beg estos program many times in the many says back in the two
thousand you know two dozen three two thousand four period
actually there was a little little affect real estate big ministration but
in any case he's he's been a number fifty rather outspoken about summit i
think that he and he and uh... i'll feel very very burned but it was
truth tellers
sometimes have a difficult time
and as much as for example
chuck hagel
as much as i have problems which are cables biography
as they start out as a right wing talk show host
and then became the c_e_o_ of uh... of a little voting machine company
which now runs the voting machines in most of our country what became he s an
awsome
and then became other things
and was elected to the senate in a landslide victory
or even after american neighborhoods they voted for republican something
they'd never done before
american art got some bad i've written by chuck it all and a lot of questions
about him
on the other hand chuck hagel
as it as a teenager
he and his brother
fought in vietnam not out of the volunteer if they were drafted franklin
up the truck hegel expert in that
part of his biography
org or really nor can i claim to have her any part of his biography but he
knew damn well the horrors of vietnam he'd be
dragged his bleeding brother and he himself was bleeding
out of a fire fight into a helicopter and got him out of there
and so
you know when you hear all this
starving dryness republican filibuster that's going on right now a pay bills
nomination he did defense secretary
i want you to remember
this
clip this is chuck hagel
dressing down kinda lisa rice encourage you go back a watch the video but it's
on you tube it's easy to find
and in fact the whole thing uh... runs a couple minutes
effect for months
and hegel basically takes kindly sir i support every on of the camera shuster
her and she has i'll look at her face of
incurred
that i havent hot uh... it very few times while i feel like ever seen
anybody who looks so
like you know if they had a knife in there and he would be in in his stomach
kind of thing you know it just i mean she recieved
shooting daggers is a phrase that is that is an understatement
has struck hegel
has united state senator from nebraska
republican
was saying this
to the city and secretary of state about
president george w bush who was the sitting president
and his war iraq curious
as some of us remember nineteen seventy
madame secretary that was cambodia
they want our government lied to the american people said we didn't cross the
border
born into cambodia in fact we did
i happened to it
know something about that as the some of this committee
so madam secretary when you set in motion
the kind of policy that the president's talking about here
is very very dangerous matter of fact i have to say
there secretary but i think this speech here last night by this president
represents
the most dangerous foreign policy blunder in this country since vietnam
since vietnam
foreign policy blunder
and he's talking about him but maintain an escalating the war iraq
this is in two thousand seven
george bush was president condi rice to secretary of state they had lied the war
like the country into a war
and they were expanding them
and their friends or make a hell of a lot of money on a the plan the
republicans were
beginning their political capital off of that bindle lot of people are very
afraid to criticize them
i think one of the above the exceptions obviously was present are greedy i was
on your criticized republicans about it
people run was beginning to
really seriously criticized the bush administration may be interested to do
it for some time at that point
but it's
when you when you hear john mccain in lindsey graham
whyy nina but check hegel
that's what they wanted
is that as a republican he had the to merit either speak the truth
about war
and i find it fascinating that is in the
in the bush administration
the two guys
out all these people who took a store the two guys who kept saying now now we
shouldn't do it now behem brother to me one more time please and finally they
had to live to them to convince them where the two guys who actually seen war
larry walker sankara whitewater sin
and general powell
i find it interesting that in the nineteen fifty two election for
president united states
the guy who had led that the u_s_ forces are world forces the supreme allied
commander
certainly let american forces as well
in europe against hitler
dwight eisenhower
ran i campaign slogan of vote for eisenhower vote for peace we've got a
clip of that someplace you know usually quickly find it
but it's it's its
why is it
that it's the military guys by and large who are saying that
hanna and the veterans
who are saying hang on just a minute before you before you jump into this war
at this
nineteen fifty two this is the eisenhower campaign slogan listless
fiat makara later
i'm working well
and i had a lot a lot of at aa
all
all right
accel
to republican
hope for peace but for eisenhower
he was campaigning on ending note though that though it does the war in south
korea
harry truman's will
and he want
and i would submit to you that it's the people who have seen the horrors of war
who are
reluctant to make it happen and i thought that i think it's so sad
that dick five deferments chini
or uh...
dredged everywhere anyone got drunk
for a year in alabama with is good buddy karl rove uh...
boyish
but the guys who never saw
the violence of combat who never saw the agony of war
don't five paul wolfowitz dot rumsfeld that these guys
condi rice
john you jade body
they were so enthusiastic
to send our soldiers are younger men and women and one out so i'm not so young
lights and our soldiers
into this
and subject the people of afghanistan iraq to are just open the gates of hell
fifteen million displaced iraqis a hundred over a hundred thousand debtor
iraqis
so that george w_ bush could
antique literally all resources directed at which you get up political capital
privatize social security
it's time for war crimes
you're listening to the trial mark munro
does it come hardman dot com car audio and video archives desert whiteley say
gerry ford was wrongly pardoned nixon for all those things and then click was
wrongly he said that no win contracts and this is
