Obviously written by a leftist. The CIA is infested with leftists, and always has been.
This is a hit piece against George “Dubya” Bush.
You can tell by the way he characterizes President Bush.
The author writes this:
“But in late 2007, I was summoned to give a detailed presentation to George W. Bush at the Oval Office. What kind of a man had Saddam been, he asked me?
I told him that he was disarming at first and used self-deprecating wit to put you at ease.
The President looked as if he was going to lose his cool. I quickly explained that the real Saddam was sarcastic, arrogant and sadistic, which seemed to calm Bush down.”
Notice that he uses purely subjective emotional terms to discredit President Bush.
This is a hit piece, nothing more.
I agree.
Probably written by a friend of Hillary to bolster her narratives around more intervention. Oops!
Wonder how the ratings for the tv show “Madame Secretary” are going this month?
