The Bizarro World that is the GOP

It seems to be an article of faith among the US Conservative movement -- believed by the President, no less -- that Saddam Hussein did not, in fact, let inspectors in to Iraq before the war.

And nobody really seems to care in the media that the President, and all of his likely GOP successors, and totally detached from very recent history. It's as if, in 1992, George Bush ran for re-election on the platform that Manuel Noriega had sponsored the Beirut bombings or something. It's wrong, and obviously and bizarrely wrong.

But I see that Paris Hilton was released from prison early today, so clearly there are more important things to discuss.
