White House taken in by Nigerian Scammers?
Here's one of those questions the news organizations fail to ask:
Who originated the fraudulent Niger-Iraqi uranium documents?
Was it really Nigerians? Or someone closer up the line to the White House?
If it was Nigerians, is it the same people who email the well known bank fraud scams?
Common people, for instance those of us who have to weed the spam from our own email-boxes, know to be wary of offers and documents from Niger/Nigeria. It is amazing that the really smart people in the White House, who, without the slightest modesty, claim the right to rule the United States, and the world, and start a war that kills 6,000 civilian men, women and children in Iraq, can be suckered by such universally known scammers.
Maybe the fools in the White House should go back to running their oil companies and leave the government to ordinary people of more transcendental perception.
Who's fooling whom?
