Will Bush Ever Run Out of Lies?

From Yahoo

"The stakes in the global war on terror are too high and the national interest is too important for politicians to throw out false charges," the president said in his combative Veterans Day speech.

Oh. Do you mean like telling the American people it was necessary to invade Iraq because they had WMDs (including nuclear weapons) and that Iraq posed an imminent threat to the US and it's allies? Or suggesting to the American people Iraq and al Qaeda had a working relationship? Or suggesting on numerous occasions that Iraq had something to do with 9-11?

"Some Democrats and anti-war critics are now claiming we manipulated the intelligence and mislead the American people about why we went to war," Bush said.

No. Many of us have ALWAYS KNOWN that. And we've been saying that since before the war began.

Like this, this, this, and of course this.

[Bush] said those critics have made those allegations although they know that a Senate investigation "found no evidence" of political pressure to change the intelligence community's assessments related to Saddam's weapons program.

Ummm Dubya they NEVER investigated that. That is why the Democrats called for a closed session of Congress just ten days ago to FORCE the GOP to actually START the investigation that they promised 2 YEARS ago.

When it became glaringly apparent no weapons of mass destruction would be found in Iraq, the Senate Intelligence Committee began an investigation into what went wrong. Sens. Pat Roberts (R-KS) and John Rockefeller (D-WV) agreed to divide the investigation into two parts: a section on the shortcomings of the intelligence community and an examination of White House pressure and manipulation of intelligence that would be released later. When the first section on the intel community was released in July 2004, Tim Russert asked Roberts if the section on White House culpability would be ready in time for the election. "I don't know if we can get it done before the election," Roberts responded. "It's more important to get it right." Recently Roberts revised his views; instead of getting it right, he'd rather not do it at all. After President Bush was reelected, Roberts changed his tune, first saying the investigation was "basically on the back burner," then calling it a "monumental waste of time."

The web of Bush lies grows daily..
