The Senate Intelligence Committee has released the long-delayed final phase of its report on prewar intelligence, highlighting the Bush administration's misuse of that intelligence to lead us into war in Iraq. Richard Clarke, former counterterrorism advisor to both the Clinton and Bush administrations, appeared on Countdown with Keith Olbermann to discuss the implications of the report.

Clarke stated unequivocally that figures in the administration lied then and that Senator John McCain is not telling the truth now when he defends them. "Someone should have to pay in some way," Clarke emphasized. "I just don't think we can let these people back into polite society."

"The report does not use the word 'lie,' Olbermann began. "Are there lies?"

1. the people of this country and iraq have been paying with their lives, their blood, and

their futures for these lies.

2. "Someone" = Bush, Cheney, Rumsfield, Rice and Gonzalez.

3. yes, I know what he meant, but the reality is, WE have been paying, and will be paying

for decades, regardless of whether those lying murderers spend a minute in jail or not.

He is calling for their social ostracism by their peers and communities! Richard Clarke is calling for the entire exile from society. Like what they did to Napoleon, but these folks are each getting their own islands. They will continue to walk amongst us and the exile was be as real as Napoleons island.
