We know now General Myers is nothing but a political hack saying,
The headline, of course, in most of the papers on Tuesday — “New Orleans Dodged a Bullet,” or words to that effect..Really, for Christ sakes, is this how the head of our military gets his info...from the morning papers? If that's true, it's no wonder we are in such a mess in the South and in Iraq. The episode makes it clear that Myers just does what Rove commands.
So, we know he's got to be lying about reading the papersto think that everything was okay. Those goofy and blatantly false talking points were first mouthed by Chertoff on Meet the Press. And, it does beg the question about which papers they purport to read.
Wonkette had a very good selection yesterday for Chertoff. For Myers, how about the military's own paper, Stars and Stripes?
FYI: Stars and Stripes "is a Department of Defense-authorized daily newspaper distributed overseas for the U.S. military community."
