"Olbermann debunked Cheney's claims that Iraq was connected to 9/11."

How long do we have to listen to this piece of c**p.

Noboby of any standing in the current administration ever claimed that Iraq or any of its leaders was behind the 9//11 atrocity against the Trade Towers. Except for a passing mention of a portion of a Boeing airplane located in Iraq that was used (apparently) to train Islamists in the art of hyjacking planes, nobody in US government has said that Iraq was even "connected" to the Trade Tower atrocity. We are there militarily as a direct result of the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait in 1990 and a subsequent series of events. Please go back and read UN resolutions from 1990 through late 2002. Thank you.

This choice piece came from the New York Times and was intentional disinformation. Unfortunately, no matter how how untrue a claim is, somebody will believe it. It's called propaganda.
