bones Fall Out The Closet
The one thing about lies is that if you tell to many of them, you eventually forget which lies you told and get caught lying about the lie. Donald Rumsfeld has apparently fallen victim to one of his ["many, many, many many many" to quote the Fugees] lies. as recorded by the Center for American Progress
quote:
"You and a few other critics are the only people I've heard use the phrase 'immediate threat.' I didn't...It's become kind of folklore that that's what happened."
- Donald Rumsfeld, 3/14/04
VERSUS
"No terrorist state poses a greater or more immediate threat to the security of our people than the regime of Saddam Hussein and Iraq."
- Donald Rumsfeld, 9/19/02
In addition there is a nice video clip available that shows Rumsfeld on CBS' Face the Nation. I'l be downloading that clip and storing it for posterity.
