Cheney cannot stop hyping hidden enemies everywhere. Fear still promotes loyalty from poorly educated wacko extremists. From the Washington Post of 8 Jan 2009:
Quote:
The White House yesterday raised anew the possibility that North Korea has an active program to enrich uranium, an issue the administration had played down in recent years as it sought to persuade Pyongyang to give up its nuclear programs.
With just 12 days left in the Bush administration, national security adviser Stephen J. Hadley made the allegation in a speech reviewing the president's foreign policy legacy. ...
Administration officials said the new concerns were largely based on in-depth scientific analysis of enriched uranium traces that were discovered on smelted aluminum tubes and reactor documents that had been provided by North Korea in an effort to rebut allegations that it had a uranium program. The Defense Intelligence Agency in particular has pressed this case, backed by the vice president's office and some parts of the CIA, but the Energy Department has opposed it, officials said.

It reads like a list of the usual suspects. Those who *know* are the same liars who said Saddam had WMDs and that are politically allied to Cheney and other wacko extremists. The Energy Department was one source for facts that strongly disputed the 'Saddam WMD' myths. Also opposing those myths were many parts of the CIA that do not support the Cheney alarmism. The same Cheney supporters are still trying to incite war with North Korea. Instead look deeper at the facts.

David Albright, a former U.N. weapons inspector and president of the Institute for Science and International Security, said he had been briefed recently on the findings by government officials. He said "very few particles" had actually been discovered on the documents and the tubes, and that the DIA was basing its analysis on a single particle that, through age-dating techniques, was believed to be about 3 1/2 years old.

UN weapons inspectors were also a responsible agency that provided facts disputing George Jr's Saddam WMD intentional lies. But TheMercenary and other wackos will now use this to blame fails on Obama - as soon as Rush Limbaugh and Hannity tell him to.
Most important fact is not N Korea uranium. The most important fact is how pathetic American White House credibility has fallen. They keep inventing bogeymen while making no serious attempt to get bin Laden. Protect bin Laden and wacko extremists with low education will believe enemies are hiding everywhere waiting to destroy us. Wacko extremism is still alive and well; complete with hyping fears based only on a single particle.
Wacko extremists need lies to revive fears of the mythical axis of evil. Such lies get the least educated among us to vote for wacko extremists. N Korea is planning the destruction of America because a single particle was found. Same reasoning also proved Saddam had WMDs.
