Jimmy Breslin minces no words and takes no prisoners.
By: Hank Kalet
Jimmy Breslin offers some righteous anger in today’s column in Newsday.
A snippet:
"George Bush told lies and they died.
"First, your government lied to ensure Bush’s re-election. Who votes against a president in time of war? And even better, you get oil with the winning election.
"So Bush lied to you. Not misstatements. Lies. He and his people threw away their honor and consciences to lie to the people they had sworn to protect.
"The lies of Washington put young men from Seymour, Tenn., and Maspeth, Queens and Palos Hills, Ill., into boxes. And that, dear reader, is quite a lie."
I could add to this, but I’d rather let Mr. Breslin’s words speak for themselves. Read this column.
