Bush was obviously lying again...approval rating dropping !! 02/08/04 - 9:55 am Bush Defends Iraq Invasion White House-AP -- President Bush denies that he led the nation into war under false pretenses, but in an interview on NBC's "Meet The Press," Bush does acknowledge that some pre-war intelligence apparently was inaccurate. Bush says that although stockpiles of biological and chemical weapons have not been found, Saddam Hussein had the capacity to produce them, and Iraq could have developed a nuclear weapon over time. Bush says former weapons inspector David Kay agreed that Iraq had the "capacity to produce weapons." Kay recently said US intelligence was "almost all wrong" about Saddam's weapons. In the Oval Office interview, Bush also speculated about what might have happened to Iraq's banned weapons. He says they could have been destroyed during the war, hidden or taken to another country. Bush says, "we'll find out." Bush also says he'd be happy to "visit with" the commission he set up last week to examine pre-war intelligence on Iraq. President Bush also says the CIA director's job is not in jeopardy despite election-year questions about the accuracy of the prewar intelligence and that he "strongly believes the CIA is ably led by George Tenet." Bush also responded to concerns the commission was not required to complete its review until after the election. He said the panel needs time to do its work and that the public will have "ample time" to assess where he used "good judgment." The interview comes as the president's approval rating dipped to 47 percent in a poll taken in early February. In January that same poll showed his approval rating at 56 percent. kxan.com
