Bush says: "Iraq Had 'Nothing' To Do With 9/11"

QUESTION: What did Iraqi have to do with that?
BUSH: What did Iraq have to do with what?

QUESTION: The attacks upon the World Trade Center.

BUSH: Nothing

Ah. Well the sound bite could prove affective for commercials as Thorgrim suggests. Things such as "I actually voted for it before I voted against it" was played over and over without the entire context of the statement.

Too bad there wasn't more emphasis on the fact that Iraq had no connection to 9/11 and no relationship with Al Qaeda in the run up to the war.

Could have avoided a lot of bullshit.

More than half the country still believes it. Fox News helped perpetuate that myth because it lead to mass support for war in Iraq.

The Administration was not proactive about getting a message out denying it.. and for good reason. Why would they want to erode support by trying to get the real facts out there regarding Iraq's lack of involvement on 9/11, and lack of relationship with Al Qaeda?

Iraq has everything to do with terrorism. Now. Maybe it didn't pre or post 9/11. But it sure does now.

So, if crooksandliars was a really true website about crooks and liars, wouldn't they have just as many democrats as republicans? Oh wait, it's a very, very biased website that offers no real substance for anyone of intelligence.

I think it only offers substance for people with high or low intelligence High is if they realize it's biased, and take that for what it's worth, and low is if they take it for more than just a biased website.

Bias doesn't mean it's useless... FNN, for instance, at least gives insight into what the neocons want you to think

The website would be alot more legit if it actually showed crooks and liars. Not just Republicans.
