The usual suspects are trumpeting the allegations made by Paul O'Neill about the White House and President Bush. The Arabic News has the headline, US official reveals the US intended to invade Iraq prior to 9/11 events and the BBC has, Bush plotted Iraq war from start. It appears though that Mr. O'Neill's evidence isn't exactly airtight. This article sheds some light on the nature of his evidence.
In a recent development, the Treasury Department wants to investigate Mr. O'Neill. I'm really interested in seeing if the people all upset about the supposed White House leaks with the CIA agent will get just as upset about O'Neills cache of NSA documents, etc. proudly displayed for 60 minutes.
I have a helpful way we can show Mr. O'Neill what we think of his allegations...
If you've looked at your money lately you'll notice that the treasury secretary's signature appears in the lower right hand corner of the bills. From a brief glance into my wallet I have a couple of Paul O'Neill's, a Lawrence Summer's and a Robert Rubin. To protest Mr. O'Neill's specious allegations I propose that you find all the currency you have with his signature on it, pull it out of your wallet, and send it to me!
Yes, that's right, send me all of your Paul O'Neil currency. Just to show Paul O'Neill that he can't push us around I promise that I'll purchase something for myself. That purchase will help to stimulate the US Economy and you, my friend, will have helped your country (and me) in a very nice way.
