Tano;

Lets assume that you are not a liar, and simply do not understand.

You claim that you were deceived by the “sixteen words’ in the SOTU.

These words were;

“The British government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa.”

All the evidence available to us, including Wilsons report on his findings, indcate that this is correct.

According to the Butler report in Britain;

“We conclude that, on the basis of the intelligence assessments at the time, covering both

Niger and the Democratic Republic of Congo, the statements on Iraqi attempts to buy

uranium from Africa in the Governmentís dossier, and by the Prime Minister in the House

of Commons, were well-founded. By extension, we conclude also that the statement in

President Bushís State of the Union Address of 28 January 2003 that:

The British Government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought

significant quantities of uranium from Africa.

was well-founded.”

Given that all the evidence is that Iraq was in fact trying to acquire uranium, let me ask you again; what basis do you have for saying that Bush engaged in deception?
