The Plain Truth<\/a><\/p>\n

It’s hard to imagine how the commission investigating the 2001 terrorist attacks could have put it more clearly yesterday: there was never any evidence of a link between Iraq and Al Qaeda, between Saddam Hussein and Sept. 11.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

On Monday, Mr. Cheney said Mr. Hussein “had long-established ties with Al Qaeda.” Mr. Bush later backed up Mr. Cheney, claiming that Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, a terrorist who may be operating in Baghdad, is “the best evidence” of a Qaeda link. This was particularly astonishing because the director of central intelligence, George Tenet, told the Senate earlier this year that Mr. Zarqawi did not work with the Hussein regime.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Read the whole article. I’m just dumbfounded that Bush and Cheney continue to run around and lie to everyone. Well, I guess I know why they are doing it. People are letting the wool be pulled over their eyes.<\/p>\n
