Bush Derangement Syndrome

from Charles Krauthammer bq. Diane Rehm: "Why do you think he (Bush) is suppressing that (Sept. 11) report?" bq. Howard Dean: "I don't know. There are many theories about it. The most interesting theory that I've heard so far -- which is nothing more than a theory, it can't be proved -- is that he was warned ahead of time by the Saudis. Now who knows what the real situation is?" bq. Diane Rehm Show, NPR, Dec. 1 and more bq. Now, I cannot testify to Howard Dean's sanity before this campaign, but five terms as governor by a man with no visible tics and no history of involuntary confinement is pretty good evidence of a normal mental status. When he avers, however, that "the most interesting" theory as to why the president is "suppressing" the 9/11 report is that Bush knew about 9/11 in advance, it's time to check on thorazine supplies. bq. When Rep. Cynthia McKinney first broached this idea before the 2002 primary election, it was considered so nutty it helped make her former Rep. McKinney. Today the Democratic presidential front-runner professes agnosticism as to whether the president of the United States was tipped off about 9/11 by the Saudis, and it goes unnoticed. The virus is spreading. Great stuff Posted by DaveH at December 5, 2003 9:03 AM
