Hamas broke already; Scooter Libby: they told me to do it!; (politcial ramblings)
From the Associated Press (AP):
GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip -- The new Hamas-led government is broke and missed the April 1 monthly pay date.......

It was the Islamic militants’ first admission they’ll have difficulty running the West Bank and Gaza without massive foreign aid.

Finance Minister Omar Abdel Razek said he’s waiting for $80 million from Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and the UAE!

Now, is this nuts or what. How can you have a government and you miss a payment this soon? I can tell you why. They don’t do anything over there. Well, if you wanted to rally against the United State or Israel they could get a million people in the streets in 15 minutes. But you don’t get paid for doing that. Can’t these people get something going to make money? It can’t be that hard. People do it all over the world. Israel does it right next door. Egypt does it right next door. So why can’t people in the Gaza Strip begin to take care of themselves? This is funny to me. Come on....it’s just a tad bit humorous. The people in the area couldn’t wait to elect these guys. And what do they get?

Scooter Libby is now telling us the President and Vice President put him up to leaking information and such. That’s what he told prosectuors!!

That’s a bit convenient. He’s testified and given statements before. Looks like this would have been the first thing he told everyone. I have a theory about it all and it’s a good rule or law you see people invoke all the time: The more trouble you are going to be in the more you have to blame someone else!! Mr. Libby needed to come clean with this from Day One. Now, he just looks like a bigger liar to me.
