Dick Armey Swings Both Ways
Brad Delong has one of those horribly explicit examples of dishonesty and arrogance that have become an every-day occurance in the Bush administration.
Horribly explicit to the point of being political pornography. Guess who’s getting f**ked.
What Dick Armey said about the CIA leak case on July 15, 2005:
Appearing on Fox this morning, former House Majority Leader Dick Armey said the following…. “We%’ve got Karl Rove, who is under this constant attack of political malarkey, who has probably the most documented case of his evidence of anyone in the the whole story. So quite frankly, I think the American people are seeing it for what it is right now. More than anything else it’s a political farce not a matter of national security interests. [Fox News, 7/14/05]
What he said October 19, 2003:
Dick Armey… in October 2003…. “Now, there was no reason to tell the world about the ambassador’s wife. It was just a short-sighted, self-centered, simple-minded cowardly act of revenge, and who’s paying the cost? The Bush White House…. If they ever find [the leakers], they ought to just — they ought to just kick them out of the White House and prosecute them, because… the greater the pretension, the greater the hypocrisy. [CNN, 10/19/03]
