George Stephanopolis this morning

I watched part of George's show this morning on ABC. One of the guest of his roundtable discussion mentioned that the one thing he found most interesting about George Tenet's new book "At the Center of the Storm" was Tenet's strong conviction regarding the incompetence and arrogance of the White House. Oh my god, what a surprise.

The other topic of discussion related to the book was Tenet's view that the White House planned to invade Iraq before 9/11. This is not news either. I have mentioned in previous posts, though not for some time, that my friend Mike and I used to talk about the inevitability of invading Iraq long before 9/11. During on weekend roller-blading workouts we discussed the arrogance of the White House and how it seemed very clear to both of us that O.I.L. (Our Illustrious Leader) and Dick had detailed plans in the works to invade Iraq. If we knew that while sitting in the suburbs of Connecticut from just watching the tube, reading the NY Times, Wall St. Journal and a few on-line news sources, how in the world could this be a surprise to the Main Stream Media. This seems more like a media sucker punch to create something out of nothing.
