The GWB promise was that any invasion would involve the UN if and when the UN found WMDs.<br /><br />The rest is history...It worked! UN inspectors returned 11/02...But in a crushing blow to GWB/Cheney there were no WMDs...So GWB/Cheney bail on the UN and rush an invasion in March 2003 before the American public absorbs there is no reason to do so...And so the secular Iraq, an obstacle to Islamic fundamentalism (our real enemy) is torn asunder and vulnerable to a very bad future.<br /><br />You see, GWB needed Senate Democratic votes to overcome the filibuster. And it worked! Saddam let inspectors back in Nov 2002...They found there were no WMDs Lacywoodnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611810694571930415.post-56970948009776176132015-06-10T10:28:13.592-04:002015-06-10T10:28:13.592-04:00His accent has always troubled me.

There’s now another leaked “trade” deal, called TISA, and Fast Track will “fast-track” that one too. Want your municipal water service privatized? How about your government postal service? Read on.<br /><br />Most of the coverage of the Fast Track bill (formally called “Trade Promotion Authority” or TPA) moving through Congress is about how it will “grease the skids” for passage of TPP, the “next NAFTA” trade deal with 11 other Pacific rim countries. But as we pointed out here, TPA will grease the skids for anything the President sends to Congress as a “trade” bill — anything.<br /><br />One of the “trade” deals being negotiated now, which only the wonks have heard about, is called TISA, or Trade In Services Agreement. Fast Track legislation, if approved, will grease the TISA skids as well.<br /><br />Why do you care? Because (a) TISA is also being negotiated in secret, like TPP; (b) TISA chapters have been recently leaked by Wikileaks; and (c) what’s revealed in those chapters should have Congress shutting the door on Fast Track faster and tighter than you’d shut the door on an invading army of rats headed for your apartment.<br /><br />Congress won’t shut that door on its own — the rats in this metaphor have bought most of its members — but it should. So it falls to us to force them. Stop Fast Track and you stop all these “trade” deals. (Joseph Stiglitz will explain below why I keep putting “trade” in quotes.)<br /><br />What’s TISA? It’s worse than TPP. As you read the following, keep the word “services” in mind. TISA protects the right of big money players to make a profit from “services,” any and all of them.<br /><br /><b>The Wikileaks Treasure Trove of TISA Documents</b><br /><br />First, from the Wikileaks...</i> [END QUOTE]<br /><br />Shorter Bob Somerby:<br /><br /><i>Vote Hillary 2016 no matter what she says, does, or doesn't do.
