Hellllooooo...you want some serious attacks on Bush?
Two hijackers had help in the U.S., Graham says in new book

"He reserves his harshest criticism for Bush. Graham found the president had ''an unforgivable level of intellectual -- and even common sense -- indifference'' toward analyzing the comparative threats posed by Iraq and al Qaeda and other terrorist groups.

"When the weapons were not found, one year after the invasion of Iraq, Bush attended a black-tie dinner in Washington, Graham recalled. Bush gave a humorous speech with slides, showing him looking under White House furniture and joking, ``Nope, no WMDs there.''

"Graham wrote: ``It was one of the most offensive things I have witnessed. Having recently attended the funeral of an American soldier killed in Iraq, who left behind a young wife and two preschool-age children, I found nothing funny about a deceitful justification for war.'"

This is our elder statesman, folks. Senator Graham saw the pre-war intel and stood up and said "It ain't good enough," and voted against the war.

INTELLIGENCE MATTERS is on pre-order now at Amazon. It is NOT THAT difficult to get a book on the bestseller list at Amazon, a few hundred pre-orders can boot it up there where it gets attention. Heck, you can even get a package deal with the Kelley book at a bigger discount.

The way to get these legitimate attacks on Bush's "catastropic success" into the press is to make a book like this a bestseller before it's even out.

1. gonna keep this kicked
I don't care if we discuss it, but I want DU'ers to be aware of something concrete we can do to undercut Bush's lies about how safe he's made us.

Graham is well-liked in the media. He's a good route for this info to be moved into the mainstream.

5. True
That would be incredibly hard-hitting interspersed with photos of the war.

Prolly the White House owns it tho? Not sure it was news footage.
