Haha! I just saw a clip of Cheney asserting the very things you insist neither he nor Bush ever asserted! You should check out the Daily Show, Foxfyre.
The administration's MO is much like the ones of many on this forum: Say anything, and if they can't disprove it, people will think it's true!
Sadly, that's enough for many Americans.
Honestly, is that enough for you? if so, why???
What makes me think he'd do anything improper? hahaha! I don't mean to be rude but Come on!
Pay attention! The man has no scruples!
And once again: These ARE his words!
Propaganda from 26 Sept 2002: "Making the Case: White House Says it Has Evidence of Iraq-Al Qaeda Ties"
"The regime has long-standing and continuing ties to terrorist organizations. And there are al Qaeda terrorists inside Iraq," he said. http://abcnews.go.com/sections/us/DailyNews/Iraqpolitics020926.html
A direct quote asserting that Iraq was complicit in 9/11 is not even necessary, because the implication, stated over and over as it was, served to reinforce the lie in the minds of people who believe whatever they hear first! The admin has people who have brains enough to know how to cleverly mislead the unwitting, as most people who fell for it indeed were (and are). Just because he's president doesn't mean he's worthy of leading us.
He's not. He doesn't have it in him.
