The Divine Miss A Scores Another Point

The Blog | Arianna Huffington: Chalabi on Misleading America to War: Dude, It's An Urban Myth, Totally! | The Huffington Post: "We were all struck by his command of political buzzwords and American slang -- at one point declaring that the idea he had used faulty intelligence to lead the U.S. into invading Iraq was 'an urban myth.' (For some urban reality, read David Corn's takedown on Chalabi's use of this term in relation to another charge against him.)
I've seen this response before. People are always impressed when a foreigner can string 3 sentences together (it's a reaction that's served me well over the years)."

...ahhmen, to that. But at least people are starting to dissect the message rather than worship the messanger. A con man is a con man in any language.
