Hat tip to Glenn Greenwald for reviving this example of Bushist mendacity:

I don't remember seeing an interview that conveys the intellectual and moral bankruptcy of the neoconservative faction as effectively as the following interview with John Bolton, conducted by the BBC's Jeremy Paxman. It was from several months ago, though I saw it for the first time this week. In addition to the mendacious nature of Bolton's answers, ponder how rare it is for any of our media stars to conduct an interview this probing and adversarial of any Bush officials...

constituted an imminent threat..."
