What a complete and utter crock! Let’s accept for a moment that these hacks are correct in defining a lie as “any statement made in the belief that it is true, but which ultimately cannot be proved.” It would not be difficult to literally bury all of the Bush administration’s statements with comparable statements made by the Clinton administration and other Democrats. THE WORLD BELIEVED SADDAM HAD WMD!

So were we better off having leadership that believed Saddam was dangerous, but did nothing about it except lob a few Tomahawks his way?

This study has all the credibility of the Johns Hopkins/Lancet study that overstated Iraqi deaths by a factor of 10 or so. At what point does this deliberate distortion against our nation’s security interests go beyond simply rough and tumble politics and enter the realm of perfidy?
