Teribus--
No, I'm not always right. I'm actually more of a moderate. I criticize absurd statements by both the Left and the Right.
I'm not even always correct--just more often than you--which is proving disappointingly easy.
So the Bush regime, between mid 2002 and March 2003, did make a categorical statement that Saddam had nothing to do with the 11 Sept 2001 attacks?
I'm sorry--the only one you have cited is in a Meet the Press from 8 Sept 2002, in which the quote (a clip actually) was from 16 Sept 2001. You must have a truly unique calendar if it indicates that 16 Sept 2001 is between mid 2002 and March 2003. Hang onto it--it may be a collector's item.
Cheney's allegedly clear statement on 8 Sept 2002 is badly undercut--by himself--in the very next paragraph. Sorry-- anything that mentions "new evidence has come to light" then proceeds to catalogue that "evidence" of possible connections between Saddam and 9-11 is not eligible as a clear statement for your homework. You are in danger of not getting a gold star for this assignment.
Admittedly, you may have a hard time finding a categorical statement by the Bush regime between mid 2002 and March 2003 that there was no connection between Saddam and 11 Sept 2001--possibly for the excellent reason that such a statement doesn't exist.
Regarding Bush's military non-service, I've told you several times that we need to finish the propaganda campaign issue-- (which is after all the subject of the thread)--before you can fulfill your destiny as apologist for Chickenhawk #1.
Too bad about your ego--which is still preventing you from acknowledging the above-cited propaganda campaign.
