Allawi Delivers More Shit To Shit-Hungry America

In honor of Ayad Allawi's visit to the US, let's recall it was his organization that claimed Iraq had WMD ready to fire within 45 minutes of the order being given -- and that after the war, Allwai's own spokesperson helpfully explained this was "a crock of shit."

Then last December, Allawi produced a memo purportedly written by Saddam's chief of intelligence in the summer of 2001 describing how Iraq was training Mohammed Atta to attack America. And as it happened, the same memo apparently referenced a shipment of uranium from Niger to Iraq. What a lucky break that Allawi found it! I was surprised the memo didn't also describe Saddam as being angry and jealous because he believed George Bush was much better looking than him.

So when Allawi tells America that Baghdad is "very good and safe," the only question is what type of container he's using to deliver his shit with now. Is it still a crock? Or has he switched to a bucket? Or perhaps a wheelbarrow, or a twelve ton crane? In any case, the Bush administration and their acolytes will crane their heads upwards with their mouths wide open like hungry baby birds, eager to eat it.
