Fool Me Once.....

CNN is reporting that the US is announcing that it has 'irrefutable' proof that Iran (as in the Revolutionary Guard) is arming terrorist groups throughout the Middle East (the report used the term 'all', which strikes me as absurd, or at least VERY ambitious). Didn't we have irrefutable, unimpeachable, god's-honest-truth evidence that Saddam had really bad, scary WMDs?

The thing that worries me is a) that we'll all swallow this lie and bomb-bomb-bomb Iran and b) that it might be true, but this will be the time the little dumbfuck boy cries wolf and no one believes him. It's gotten to the point that if these people told me the sun is coming up in the east tomorrow, I'd want independent verification. CNN is reporting as 'fact', so apparently the MSM is still willing to believe anything they say, without any verification. I don't know which worries more: the MSM's willing to follow these guys unquestioningly off cliff after cliff or that we might stop believing them altogether at just the wrong time (even a stopped clock, etc......)

UPDATE: Josh points out the idiocy
