They Knew...
If desperation is ugly, then Washington, D.C. today is downright hideous.

As the 9/11 Commission recently reported, there was “no credible evidence” of a collaborative relationship between Iraq and al Qaeda. Similarly, no weapons of mass destruction have been found in Iraq. With U.S. casualties mounting in an election year, the White House is grasping at straws to avoid being held accountable for its dishonesty.

The whitewash already has started: In July, Republicans on the Senate Intelligence Committee released a controversial report blaming the CIA for the mess. The panel conveniently refuses to evaluate what the White House did with the information it was given or how the White House set up its own special team of Pentagon political appointees (called the Office of Special Plans) to circumvent well-established intelligence channels. And Vice President Dick Cheney continues to say without a shred of proof that there is “overwhelming evidence” justifying the administration’s pre-war charges.

1. Seems no matter who them blame, it never goes away.
Is Bush Co. already a lame duck? All they can do is perpetuate lies to try to regain lost credibility.

4. Think of the thousands of friends/families of the wounded/dead from the
Iraqi War and how they are SICK along with you and I and the many other Americans who want to see this madness come to a stop.

We are all sick..... this Bush is not good for the American people and this great Nation.
