I am rather literal but I think it is important to hold people accountable for what they said rather then some imagined hidden message that you think they want other people to believe. And if you must attack them for the imagined hidden message then you should be direct and upfront about it IMO. Something like "yes he really said X, but by X he really meant Y and Z, so who cares if X is true.". Also while I understand that the importance of saying Iraqi agents met with Atta goes beyond the alleged fact itself, it certainly is an attempt to accuse Saddam's regime of having had contacts with Al Qaeda. And if you think it is utter nonsense to make that second claim then its understandable that you bash Bush and Co. a bit for making it, but there is no way to establish that Bush or Cheney meant that Saddam was behind 9/11 so they should not be accused of having made that statement. In fact several administration officials have explicitly said there is no evidence of Saddam being responsible for or contributing to 9/11. In light of that fact it would seem that you are the one using innuendo to feed perception but at least I'm pretty sure that you aren't being naive about it... Tim
