    Obviously that was a remark from someone who has no idea how federal bureaucracy actually works. The simple fact the list was released to the public with multiple misspellings of the word "attacker" (and San Bernardino), along with factually incorrect information, indicates it was never vetted by any "bureaucrat", but was most likely dashed together by Spicer and his staffers.

    As if bureaucrats don't make mistakes, and tirelessly work for common good, instead for their own good.

    Which of the last American presidents was a good one? An expert on something, wise, didn't lie, cheat, did something for the US worth remembering.

    How many of them have blood of innocent people on their hands (all of them), killed people, tortured folks. Trump at least hasn't killed anybody, as yet.

    Or even a current member of the Congress?

    Isn't that true that Nancy Pelosi, the wise one, just has said Russia had invaded Korea?
    Maybe someone should drag out another dead body protesting that?

    What a relief! :)

    But still business as usual:

    Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) named Waters to its list of corrupt members of Congress in its 2005, 2006, 2009 and 2011 reports.

    Ummm. He is the President of the United States. He can stop the war at any time he wants. Did he stop it? Nope, he continued it and escalated it. He gave that mission the "go" and the blood is on his hands.

    May have given the get go but wrong to say one person no matter who they are can stop a war. It takes all involved to reach an agreement.

    In the US, and in many other developed countries, actions started for the safety of the people can't be stopped.
    There will be hell to pay if a politician does it, and something bad happens.
    So the wars, the security theater at the airports, the anal inspections will continue, probably indefinitely.

    One can be said for sure, the people on the other side don't care who is the president of the US. And nobody cares what happens to them.

    Well then...Trump has some serious F-Ups as his advisers.

    First Conway, now Spicer.

    Now, it seems that the Atlanta Olympic Bombing was done by Muslim terrorists.
    http://www.cnn.com/2017/02/08/politics/spicer-alleged-atlanta-terror-attack-trnd/index.html

    More "alternative facts" or is Trump delving into revisionist history?

    Which one shows that specifically?
    After some many errors I hate to be in error again by not knowing that.

    The one titled "UK High Court considers use of British weaponry in Yemen" and showing a crowd of two lonely protesters with a small banner?

    Or those, about the UN and Oxfam begging for some money?

    Or "US Rebukes Saudi Arabia by Halting Arms Sale".
    This is the funny one :)

    This week, the Obama administration halted the sale of nearly US$400 million of weapons to Saudi Arabia due to concerns about civilian casualties in Yemen.

    Yet a US$3.5 billion military helicopter sale to Saudi Arabia would go forward. The US also announced it reduced intelligence sharing with the Saudis on some issues, but increased it on others. US training to the coalition to improve targeting is being reconfigured.

    But:
    Since taking office in January 2009, the Obama administration has offered more than $115 billion in weapons to Saudi Arabia in 42 separate deals, more than any US administration in the 71-year history of the US-Saudi relationship, according to a report by the Center for International Policy. Boeing, Lockheed Martin, Raytheon and General Dynamics are the biggest beneficiaries of these deals.

    It's all the good old doing something by doing nothing.

    Poll: Trump’s travel ban enjoys majority support, 55/38

    Fifty-five percent of registered voters said they approve of the immigration order, while 38 percent disapprove, according to the national Morning Consult/POLITICO survey conducted Feb. 2 through Feb. 4. Thirty-five percent of voters strongly approve of the ban that was first implemented on Jan. 27.

    Sorry, but the clumsy attempt at goalpost shifting is pretty bad. Of course, bureaucrats make mistakes. In this case, probably Spicer, clumsily trying to respond without passing it through the bureaucracy, which would have pointed out the idiocies in the list.

    But never mind, I'm just an old retired spook who has no idea how things work in DC.

    So you know he didn't tell the truth, to those law enforcement officials, some of them most likely knew the truth anyway.

    Your crystal ball must be of excellent quality and range. :)

    2 successive post. The first with 0 information content and the next irrelevant to the topic. Pretty conclusive evidence that you are either "challenged" or a dweller under the bridge or both. I'm inclined to believe the last.
