guyz in new york city of listening to the darryl hague us what's up
been tomo publication
although i was stunned
i was here in a couple called like the woman that uh... flood segment on rachel
maddow weather brought out the l_b_j_ tapes
and interest and that she was trying to compare this
i want to be done with a feeling of iraq or himself
and i want to ask you a lot of the compare notes
it will work the political world
uh... in congress or the white house right now
to prosecute uh... d uh... iraq war uh... intel which shall constitute
i believe treated in if you're lying to congress in sayin that there are better
act as though the unduly
um really if there's a smoking gun
that we know of
for double impact of the testimony
of uh... product of the book put out by shiitake european t_v_ pilot coming our
or lawrence wilkerson who said he was willing to testify
they said that he served on the show locally this is colin powell's assistant
he stuck in the show about how they fit on it at that
yes i would a corporate sequence of so your question why didn't hold for story
say dust i did not see i have not seen that racial matter segment
uh... so i'd
you know i i don't but i've been playing l_b_j_ tapes on this program for three
or four years however long they've been out there since the johnson library
released them
don't have personal knowledge of the racial show other than having had a
couple of callers tell me about it so i can speak directly to that
dot what was your question
with the political world who actually investigated prosecuted
and the quite a few exercise here but although below the closest thing to the
smoking gun
you know as far as a unit lying to congress and the american people right
in the in iraq or intel because i've been studying this for years
and i mean seems like there's pretty good
i think that is evident that show
uh... george tenet and his chief of staff
tommorow lynn with harold
the proof that curve ball of light yet the uh... you know that that the one
eyewitness to doug and they would line the whole time
and uh... i don't know what would be the
the smoking gun in backward another scholar of the iraq war rituals are
really good job of
putting together a documentary based on the on the book hubris that was
co-authored by david corn and uh... who's the other day
yeah michael isikoff um the two of them put together the spoken and their
documentaries you know it's brilliant
and and and uh...
although i would by would take a step farther and say this is treason
but you know so i think it's fairly clear fairly implicit in that
but uh... all of that sad i'd go back to nineteen ninety nine
when george w_ bush was not even yet running for president but was planning
on running for president
and his mother and dad hired an old family friend a fellow by the name of
mickey her school it's who was uh...
well-known author
and agood ghost writer there are people who just make a living being ghost
writers writing other people's biographies in auto biography is
and they hired him to write a charge to keep which was george should be bushes
autobiography cuz you have to have an autobiography i think in a run for
president right rightly hell bomb into do dreams my father and all this comes
up
on he wrote the first draft of which are should keep by wasn't suck up enough
mail for george w_ bush
for his dad and and his designated so they hired somebody else to finish it
that um... he had a about a hundred hours of of taped interviews with george
w_ bush
and he spoke on the record with uh... journalist robert perry and and sudip
well here at this is cindy sheehan testifying before john conyers and
before congress even mind this is year before george w_ bush is even a running
for president
he really here's what he had to say to the guy who is writing his biography for
as a matter of fact and and and is in nineteen ninety nine with respected
journalist
and long-time first family friend mickey her skull that's
then-governor george bush stayed in
one of the keys to gain seen as a great leader is to be seen as commander in
chief
my father had all this political capital built up on him to have their mackie's
out of kuwait
and he wasted at
f i have a chance invaded if i had that much capital
i'm not going to waste that i'm going to get everything pass that on to get past
and i'm going to have a successful presidency enclose you'll recall when
george bush
won his second term the first thing he did was he said i've got all this
political capital and i'm gonna spend it
and what he was gonna spend it on was when he ran for congress on back in
nineteen seventy-seven in texas the lost
and that was
privatizing social security
so i think that's the original sin garcia is that this guy betty his
commerce secretary whose name escapes me at the dinner at the moment but uh... he
wrote a book you've just to three years into the bush administration saying that
the very first cabinet meeting that they had which was two or three days after
george was sworn in the for george just out of the clear blue sky first item of
business was how do we attack saddam hussein
you know how do we how do we invade iraq everybody was like well why would you
want to do that when he talking about
anything else
he had this thing he want to be a war president me thought if you could be a
war president
he would get so much political capital from that but james madison talked about
you know that that this is
this is the one of the flaws have form of government is that the commander in
chief
is the president and if the exercises that park manchi baseball visitation
powers in monuments was the word that powers alliance with the with the phrase
that house
anthony and
him as someone who supplied which get it
hike that would be the point that i would start
first thanks
