Advocate, when you can come up with an actual lie of Hannity's, wherein he tells blatant lies, then let us know here. So far, you are batting zero.
The real story behind the big lie is that liberals were preaching Hussein and WMD long before Bush even got to Washington, so your so-called "big lie" is nothing more than political spin, thats all.
As Mysteryman points out, so-called news organizations can tell as many lies as they want as long as they are in your favor and you obviously don't care. To this day, the person behind Rather's fictional program just before the election goes free, apparently nobody cared, and doing such things in an effort to alter a federal election is a serious crime in case you haven't heard. But who cares. Apparently nobody does. Nobody pursued this obvious crime. Liberals didn't because they don't care to, and conservatives are not because they might offend someone.
And for the millionth time, the administration never claimed Hussein had purchased uranium from Niger, only that he was attempting to set up a deal, which to this day has never been proven wrong, and in fact the intelligence still points to the fact that Hussein had sought to procure uranium. Your side continues to lie about this point and obfuscate the truth about this, as did Joseph Wilson of course. And to this day, some think Hussein may have even thought he had a nuclear program further along than it was, except his scientists may not have told him everything for fear of being killed. To this day, do we really know what was going on in Iraq with WMD? I don't think so.
