WMDS Based on Intelligence known to be false!!!!!!!!!!!!
http://www.guardian.co.uk/Iraq/Story/0,,1752753,00.html

The White House has acknowledged for the first time that a key moment in post-war Iraq, the declaration by George Bush that "we have found the weapons of mass destruction", was based on intelligence known in Washington to be false.

4. Hey Scotty, if you want to buy your soul back, you will have to
reverse course NOW. Ari had to wake up on much less provocation.... this is your chance to get it right for once.

3. So what, they have control of the houses. They can do whatever
the **** they want. Right doesn't matter, wrong doesn't count. When they speak of criminals in D.C. this is what comes to mind.... (your link and the info therein).

5. yes, scot said bush used info but did not know it was false. yaddy yah.


The White House has acknowledged for the first time that a key moment in post-war Iraq, the declaration by George Bush that "we have found the weapons of mass destruction", was based on intelligence known in Washington to be false....

......In response to the paper, the White House spokesman, Scott McClellan, yesterday admitted Mr Bush had used false information but said he had been unaware of the fact, and called the reporting "irresponsible". "The president's comments were based on intelligence assessments by the CIA and briefing by the intelligence community," he said. "It's not something that turns round on a dime." However, by September 2003 vice-president Dick Cheney was still saying the trailers could have been used to make anthrax.

7. * must have said he found the WMD about 5-6 times. Each time it
was found they jumped the gun and they hadn't found anything. Which is why a lot of people think we really did find WMD. One time he said it was during a visit to Russia. Said he did find them. End of story. No details.

8. This revelation is a gotcha moment
for those that scan papers and tv news. Most of us knew this but, as usual it got buried in daily trash dumping of the news.

The non-believers have got to wonder how bush could be This incompetent!
