You Should Read This

I'm not even going to bother excerpting it, just head over here and read the whole thing. The article is titled "The Two Most Essential, Abhorrent, Intolerable Lies Of George W. Bush's Memoir," and focuses on how he tries in the book to spin the two decisions which history will almost certainly hold against him most prominently as evidence of the fact that he was the worst. These are, of course, his unprovoked war of aggression against Iraq and the state sponsored torture program he instituted. The article is the most exhaustive compilation of evidence of wrongdoing heading up to the Iraq war that I have seen on the internet, and shows that, as we get further and further away from the genesis of these events, a fully formed narrative of them is starting to emerge more clearly, and it is certainly not the false narrative that Bush and Cheney concocted. So hooray for truth.
