Condi just told Andrea Greenspan Iraq war was because Saddam was "a threat in the middle East"

[Amerigo Vespucci]

Gosh, I thought it was because we had proof that he had WMDs and was going to use them.

Learn something new every day.

9. I thought THE ORGINAL REASON was that he was complicit in 9/11.

Which of course was a lie.

A threat in the middle east? To who? The international petroleum mafia?

WMDs? Proven to be a lie before we ever invaded. Hell, we know CONCLUSIVELY what he had... we sold most of it to him.

And my favorite lie she just spoke this evening: The only reason the Obama Administration got bin Ladden was because the bush* administration had already done the prep work! Again, a bold-faced lie.

From Think Progress:

And just six months after 9/11, Bush suggested in a press conference that Bin Laden was not a top priority for his administration. Asked whether Bush thought capturing Bin Laden was important, Bush scolded those who cared about Bin Laden for not “understand[ing] the scope of the mission” because Bin Laden was just “one person,” whom Bush said, “I really just don’t spend that much time on“:

Who knows if he’s hiding in some cave or not. We haven’t heard from him in a long time. The idea of focusing on one person really indicates to me people don’t understand the scope of the mission. Terror is bigger than one person. He’s just a person who’s been marginalized. … I don’t know where he is. I really just don’t spend that much time on him, to be honest with you.
