Subject: RE: BS: WMDs WERE found in Iraq!
Well, all I really want to know is why such a high percentage of Americans thought that Saddam had ties to Al-Qeada right around the time of the invasion??? Did they all dream it up???

I don't think it really matters the exact wording of speeches the Bush PR War Machine wrote for their guys (and gal) but what was inferred... I mean, like all we heard were references to 9/11 in the selling of the war... The referneces in themselves and the oversellng of knowingly questionable intellegence, irregarless of the wording, is what should be the heart of this debate...

And from what I witnessed, read and heard during those days I find it credulous that anyone would stand here and deny that the angers and fears left by 9/11 weren't used in creating a mindset within the masses that defeating Saddam would be a step in the war on terrorism...

Now, if that ain't linkin' the two then nuthin' is... T and his little gang can continue to deny this but they know in their heart of hearts that they are furtherin' an argument that does doesn't do juustice to the way things actually were... Why they think thay can do this is beyond me other than they just don't want to give up the ship... Fine, the ship has been under water for some time now...
