But back to the issue at hand. Guys like you have already made up their minds regarding Bush's supposed guilt, hence my "guilty until proven innocent" comment.
Actually, I am a "guy lke Al" and I am not entirely convinced they lied because of the risks involved in making such a lie. If they did, their behavior is not much different than that of a kid in a hot car trying to out run the police........or a Top Gun.
Meanwhile, even Gephardt doesn't believe that Bush lied about WMD:
"We'll have an investigation in the Congress," said Gephardt, a candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination. "We should. You should, after any war, review what happened, what the intelligence was and whether things were done right."
"But," he said, "there is long, consistent, clear evidence that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction. And I'm still convinced that we are going to find them."
Gephardt is the biggest wuss east of the Mississippi; he wants to be president so bad, he would betray his grandmother. I wouldn't pay much attention to what he says at this point. He's waiting to see what the public really thinks before he makes his definitive statement.
