A River in Egypt

George W. Bush is in denial of the September 11th Commission's findings regarding Al Qaeda and Iraq. So what else is new?

He's been in denial regarding WMD. His sudden interest in Abu Musab al-Zarqawi belies the fact that al-Zarqawi operated in northern Iraq, i.e., autonomous Kurdistan--our ally--prior to the invasion.

And bringing it all full circle, Bush made Pakistan--a country with KNOWN ties to Al Qaeda--a major "non-NATO ally" of the US. Boy, that sure does send a message.

The message is that the pResident is dangerously divorced from reality.
