The Dems DID NOT have the same intel as *

[Botany]

Scream it
shout it

The DSM proves that, the Wilson report from Niger proves that, the
inspectors proved that.

what a liar.

btw History is written after the fact based on facts .... not by dems or
repubs.

1. Only the Senate Select Committee saw "the same intel"

Not 100 Dems. Bush is just lying, there.

3. I doubt that the senate select committee saw the same intel

the WHIG cooked the data feed it to Judy Miller who printed it and then
Cheney quoted the NY Times as supporting their case for war.

2. Exactly

Hell, even Powell didn't have the same intel as Cheney and WHIG.

6. I suggest we all write detailed letters to the news outlets with the

information they seem to lack it. I know I am.

5. Someone needs to tell Carl Levin...

I was suprised when I heard about this on Hardball on monday.

"LEVIN: I think basically they decided immediately after 9/11 to go after Saddam. They began to—look there was plenty of evidence that Saddam had nuclear weapons, by the way. That is not in dispute. There is plenty of evidence of that."

That's not in dispute? There's plenty of evidence of that? What the hell is he talking about.

7. Why does it matter?

The WH had "real-time" data from the IAEA inspectors, from folks like Hans Blix and Scott Ritter - yet they WH ignored their conclusions.

They chose to go with the cherry picked data coming from Cheney, Feith and Wurmser, as well as the KNOWN LIES of Chalabi and al-Libi.
