I’m not sure what offends me more. The out and out lying or the obvious belief that us poor proles are too stupid to remember what she’s previously said or the intelligence, heaven forbid, to use that new fangled Internet thingy to keep track of it.
Nice start Harriet, nice start.
Maybe she meant it was a mistake to vote for the war, rather than that the war itself was a mistake. That would make sense, wouldn’t it? Oh.
Maybe she meant it was a mistake to believe that Iraq had WMD, which is obviously quite a different thing to believing that it was a mistake to attack Iraq on the grounds of possessing those same WMD. Obvious really, when you think about it.
Oh.
On a similar note of pretty-straight-kind-of-gal-ism, did anyone else notice the Great Vowel Shift between the time of courting the Labour hoi polloi and the time of representing the Leadership to the BBC?
