A study by two nonprofit journalism organizations found that President
Bush and top Administration officials issued 935 false statements
about the national security threat from Iraq in the two years
following the 2001 terrorist attacks. That was five years ago.
Congress has done nothing. Does this piss you off?

"It is now beyond dispute that Iraq did not possess any weapons of
mass destruction or have meaningful ties to al-Qaeda," according to
Charles Lewis and Mark Reading-Smith of the Fund for Independence in
Journalism staff members.

"Some journalists -- indeed, even some entire news organizations -- have
since acknowledged that their coverage during those prewar months was
far too deferential and uncritical. These

If someone repeats the same thing 100 times and t turns out to be
untrue, is that 100 lies or one lie? Or is it 100 mistakes or one
mistake? They haven't Jimmy Hoffa; Does that mean he didn't existed?

Maybe he was mislead byKerry?

I thought you said Bush lied..

Here's some more "false" statements concerning Iraq's WMDs for you.

Wonder when a "nonprofit journalism organization" will count the ones
democrats made?

"The 1991 Persian Gulf War and subsequent U.N. inspections destroyed Iraq's
illicit weapons capability and, for the most part, Saddam Hussein did not
try to rebuild it, according to an extensive report by the chief U.S.
weapons inspector in Iraq that contradicts nearly every prewar assertion
made by top administration officials about Iraq."

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A12115-2004Oct6.html

"The community of nations may see more and more of the very kind of threat
Iraq poses now: a rogue state with weapons of mass destruction, ready to use
them or provide them to terrorists. If we fail to respond today, Saddam and
all those who would follow in his footsteps will be emboldened tomorrow."

-Bill Clinton - 1998

"In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that
Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons
stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program. He has also
given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including Al Qaeda members,
though there is apparently no evidence of his involvement in the terrible
events of September 11, 2001."

-Hillary Clinton - 2002

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A12115-2004Oct6.html

The Guardian - February 6, 1999

"Saddam Hussein's regime has opened talks with Osama bin Laden, bringing
closer the threat of a terrorist attack using chemical, biological or
nuclear weapons, according to US intelligence sources and Iraqi opposition
officials."

http://www.guardian.co.uk/international/story/0,3604,314700,00.html

"One way or the other, we are determined to deny Iraq the capacity to
develop weapons of mass destruction and the missiles to deliver them. That
is our bottom line."
--President Bill Clinton, Feb. 4, 1998

"If Saddam rejects peace and we have to use force, our purpose is clear. We
want to seriously diminish the threat posed by Iraq's weapons of mass
destruction program."
--President Bill Clinton, Feb. 17, 1998

"Iraq is a long way from [here], but what happens there matters a great deal
here. For the risks that the leaders of a rogue state will use nuclear,
chemical or biological weapons against us or our allies is the greatest
security threat we face."
--Madeline Albright, Feb 18, 1998

"He will use those weapons of mass destruction again, as he has ten times

"[W]e urge you, after consulting with Congress, and consistent with the U.S.

"Hussein has ... chosen to spend his money on building weapons of mass
destruction and palaces for his cronies."

"There is no doubt that ... Saddam Hussein has reinvigorated his weapons

murderous dictator, leading an oppressive regime ... He presents a
particularly grievous threat because he is so consistently prone to

... So the threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is
real..."

I love how moronic leftist can't comprehend the point that US intelligence
was wrong about Saddam's WMDs in the 90s as well, and that to plunk out only
the "false statements" that a bunch of "journalist" compiled on only
republicans is CLEARLY a partisan effort.

Oh, it's unbelievable the way they allowed Bush and his Brownshirts to
lie their nuts off about Saddams WMDs. They lied to us, they lied to
Congress, they lied to anybody who would listen. And then they got
their invasion, the WMDs weren't there and they were allowed to simply
skate away with "John Kerry believed us" being accepted as a
legitimate defense.

"We are in possession of what I think to be compelling evidence that Saddam
Hussein has, and has had for a number of years, a developing capacity for
the production and storage of weapons of mass destruction."

-- Sen. Bob Graham (D, FL), Dec. 8, 2002

"Without question, we need to disarm Saddam Hussein. He is a brutal,
murderous dictator, leading an oppressive regime ... He presents a
particularly grievous threat because he is so consistently prone to
miscalculation ... And now he is miscalculating America's response to his
continued deceit and his consistent grasp for weapons of mass destruction
... So the threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is
real..."

-- Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Jan. 23. 2003

Yes. The continuous bombing and genocidal sanctions of Clinton's regime
were bad. On this we agree.

So hold a person responsible for his actions is wrong according to
you. Tens of thousands of dead based on Bush's lies and you want to
give him a pass. You disgust me.

He did. He lied to the entire world. His lies caused the deaths of
untold thousands and destroyed the credibility of our nation for a
generation. If you didn't hate America, you would be outraged.
