Trust Us: We’re Incompetent Fucks

It appears that George Bush was lying when he touted the ten terrorist plots broken up by the "international community" since September 11.

But it’s often fun, when dealing with the Bush Administration’s lies, to play "What If He Were Telling The Truth?". So, what if Bush wasn’t lying?

That means that the "international community" has broken up ten terrorist plots — while being unable to foil an increasing and now record-number of major terrorist attacks. In just the last two years there were about 900 significant attacks — including 200 in Iraq, which piece of real estate Dubya has claimed the "central front" in the "War On Terror".

Hundreds of billions of dollars spent, two countries bombed to hell and back — and irretrievably poisoned by the United States’ toxic weaponry, tens of thousands of civilians killed, a possible Administraiton-toppling scandal, a major American city ravaged while the Administration could do nothing but sit and watch because needed manpower was stuck in Iraq, American prestige (not to mention Bush’s poll ratings) at an all-time low. And all so that Bush could, in an "unprecedented" speech concerning the "War On Terror", trumpet his Administration’s skillz in turning back something on the order of one-half of one percent of would-be terrorist attacks.

That’s if Bush had been telling the truth regarding those skillz — which wasn’t, in fact, the case. Who in hell writes Bush’s scripts, anyway? Osama himself?
