Dave is right on target.  And that’s not all of the faking and lying that the Bush bunch is guilty of.  I remember when Bush and the boys were jacking up the rhetoric.  Remember that yellow cake?  You know that Saddam had yellow cake ever since Israel bombed the reactor in Baghdad.  They had been using yellow cake for the power plant before it was bombed.

So when after the overthrow of Hussein, the United States sold that yellow cake to Canada.  Bush apologists claimed that was evidence of WMD.  Fairly silly, but to the die hard Bushites, it was a straw to grasp.

Right on target is right!  The problem is that most of what these lies were accusing them of were actually being done by the US.  Maybe Iraq would’ve been justified in doing a regime change here?
