Questionable Intelligence

So the Australian PM has predictably fallen into line with Bush and Blair in the shift to implying that the decision to invade Iraq may have been based on flawed intelligence.

Please excuse my vulgarity for a moment... What a load of bullshit!

As Rahul Mahajan points out, the real intelligence failure is that a large proportion of the general public appears to swallow this stuff!

There was once an Australian prime-minister who told us all that we need to have 'values', that we need 'take responsibility' and that politics was more about character than charisma. This fellow once had the nick-name "Honest" something-or-other.

Wonder what happenned to him?
