The left hand doesn't know what the right is doing

I'm still wondering if the people in the Bush administration actually talk to each other - or if they think Bush's prayer sessions are enough. If that's the case, then maybe they would like to pray harder for a little "getting-the-story-straight" guidance.

Now Scott McClellan, the White House's new press commissar, says that the Bush administration never saw any kind of Saddam-Al Qaeda link:
"We've said all along that there's no evidence to suggest that that we've seen," said White House spokesman Scott McClellan.
No, Scott, you haven't "said all along that there's no evidence". You may have known there was no evidence - but that isn't the same as saying it.

So McClellan has thrown his hat in with the new and improved Rumsfeld and Rice versus Cheney - who had thrown in his hat with the old Rumsfeld - whose hatrack previously held the Bush administration's all-encompassing, prayer-mindful hat.

Well, I'm sure in a few days that Bush will come out and assure us that he thinks all of these people holding completely contradictory ideas are doing a swell job.
