Lest we forget Ed Koch's words...in 2003
Edward I. Koch
Wednesday, July 16, 2003

The Democratic candidates for president – and many in the media – are trying to make President Bush seem like a liar. In so doing, they are making an unforgivable mistake.

In his State of the Union Address to Congress on Jan. 28, 2003, President Bush said, "The British government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa."

Britain's Prime Minister Tony Blair, defending himself before the House of Commons for making a similar representation, said last week that the representation was true and comes from a different source than the one that was recently discredited by the CIA.

For me, it comes down to this: If Bush actually did lie to the American public – intentionally stating as the truth that which he knew to be false – then he should be impeached and removed as president.

Although I am a Democrat, I am no ideologue. In some local and state elections, I have proudly crossed party lines for candidates I thought were appreciably better. I believe that the most important issue facing the world is international terrorism, and it is my current intention to vote for George W. Bush for re-election.

LET'S HOLD ED TO HIS WORDS. IT IS BEING PROVEN AS WE SIT THAT * LIED, "...INTENTIONALLY STATING AS TRUTH THAT WHICH HE KNEW TO BE FALSE..."

WHY IS HE STILL WRITING ARTICLES WITHOUT REFERENCING THESE WORDS?

1. Thank you so much for bringing
that dino's words back to rightfully haunt him.

According to mr know-it-freak-all we should be working on Impeachment proceedings NOW.

How did he ever get to be such an clueless blowhard?
