Senate Panel: NO Pre-War Saddam-al-Qaida Ties

Pwnt! Well, another of the “good reasons” we went to war with Iraq has proved a myth– along with all the others, like WMD and Saddam’s nuclear ambitions. I wonder if Bush and Cheney still hold these “truths” self-evident? Morons!
In a report released today (wow another Friday release, go figure) by the Senate, Saddam Hussein regarded al-Qaida as a threat rather than a possible ally, contradicting assertions President Bush and Dick Cheney had used to build support for the war in Iraq.
Smoke And Mirrors
Take this to the bank.. whenever Bush releases anything on Friday (like other presidents before him), it means he got pwnt, and it’s information he wishes you would rather not see. I always laugh when I hear commentators talk about the old “Friday” rule, as I never understood it, but do now.
Not only does this report refute *everything* Bush has told us, it even goes on to say our intelligence was a disaster waiting to happen. If Bush would have spent less time in Crawford, TX during the Spring/Summer months, 9/11 may have been averted. If he was proactive with intelligence instead of proactive with a tractor, things might be different today.
Lies, More Lies, And Even More Lies
The report concludes that postwar findings do not support a 2002 intelligence report that Iraq was reconstituting its nuclear program, possessed biological weapons or had ever developed mobile facilities for producing biological warfare agents.
Remember when Bush had Colon Powell go in front of the UN and spew a bunch of administration lies? I give Colon Powell so much credit for leaving Bush, and standing up for his own principles. I would have rather seen Powell as president, instead of a monkey in a suit.
On Oct. 7, 2002, the same day Bush gave a speech speaking of such a link, the CIA had sent a declassified letter to the committee saying it would be an “extreme step” for Saddam to assist Islamist terrorists in attacking the United States.
Pants On Fire
So again, was Bush misinformed, or did he just make shit up? I think it’s a little of both, or a lot of one. Bush is a moron, we all know that. But you can’t be that stupid to put our country in financial and national security jeopardy by going off half-cocked into a war of choice.
This presidency has deceived more than any other probably since Nixon. If one good thing comes out of this is that there will never be another Bush in the White House as long as I’m still on this Earth.
That at least is one thing I have to look forward to.
