It seems the only people that don’t understand what is really going on with Libya, the middle east, the US economy, Congress and the White House is the mainstream media and their myrmidons.

CNN Anchor Christine Romans: I think it’s very clear, Michael Scheuer, that you are no fan of this policy in this administration. I think calling Ambassador Rice “crazed” is certainly a significant charge.

Former CIA Analyst Michael Scheuer: I don’t know – I’ve just listened to her. That’s only my impression. And, I have to say this is not a democratic problem, this is a republican problem too. Both parties love to intervene in other peoples’ business where there are no US interests at stake and where we spend enormous amount of money at a time when we’re nearly bankrupt. That doesn’t seem to me to be a wise practice of American statesmanship.

Romans: That’s a whole ‘nother story…(stuttering)… To call the United States bankrupt. The United States is running humongous deficits, yes, but the economy and this mission in Libya are two separate issues.

Scheuer: They’re not separate issues mam. You’re just carrying the water for Mr. Obama.

Romans: I’m certainly not carrying anyone’s water. And..and..that…I will assure you of that.
