Bush's Tall Tales of Uranium from Africa
There are reports indicating that maybe Bush wasn't lying about WMD, at least not all the time:
Iraq uranium claim gets some support
WASHINGTON -- It was one of the first signs that the intelligence used to go to war in Iraq was wrong: White House repudiation of 16 words in last year's State of the Union speech that had suggested Saddam Hussein tried to buy uranium in Africa. Yet even as two recent reports sharply criticized prewar intelligence, they also suggested President Bush's claim may not have been totally off-base.
Hmmm. Do you find that hard to believe? I do and I'm not alone. Check out Josh Marshall's detailed exploration of the uranium from Africa intelligence.
