Honestly, I thought it was common knowledge at this point.

2. We just needed to sink millions into a study to prove it. Now that we've proven it, nothing will

happen.

4. The MSM are finally using the L-word.

They were always to chicken to actually call them liars. It was always "faulty intelligence", etc, etc, blah blah blah. It can't be the president's fault if he had faulty intelligence, right? It was just a mistake!

Now, for whatever reason, they are finally coming out and saying what we always knew: Bush lied.

8. There's a lot that is 'common knowledge'

but that doesn't make those crimes any less egregious. It's bad enough that we don't know what is actually going on in Iraq. Why should we shove under the rug what we do know about what got us there?
