Helen Thomas takes some shots at Fleischer's book [View All]

snip>
Fleischer devoted a whole chapter to me and our back-and-forth discussions at White House briefings during the run-up to the invasion of Iraq. He said he believed the outcome was a draw.
....
"There is no question that we have evidence and information that Iraq has weapons of mass destruction, biological and chemical particularly," he said. "This is the reason that the president felt so strongly that we needed to take military action to disarm since he would not do it himself."

However, he winds up his book acknowledging: "We never did find weapons of mass destruction in Iraq ... Yet President Bush still won reelection."

He said the voters who "worried about terrorism and keeping America safe voted overwhelmingly to reelect" Bush, despite the failure to find weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.

Fleischer defends his role in pumping up the war. It was just a matter of time until Iraq "probably would have weapons of mass destruction and used them against our military forces," Fleischer wrote........
