Unbelievable
October 6th, 2005 . by TomFrom CNN’s main page online just now [emphasis mine]. It will change soon but this is the wording as of the time I read it:
Amid dipping approval for the Iraq war, President Bush said today that the fight against terrorism must continue there because it is the center of a terrorist movement to “intimidate the whole world.” Bush said if U.S. forces withdraw from Iraq, insurgents would “use the vacuum created by an American retreat to gain control of a country, a base from which to launch attacks and conduct their war against nonradical Muslim governments.“
Yo, dipshit, terrorists are using the vacuum created by an American invasion to gain control of a country and launch attacks and conduct wars against nonradical Muslim governments. Is our media so fucking stupid that they can’t see that? Why is the headline on that piece not saying “Bush in denial of reality he created?”
