The Nightline in question ("Bush's War) is available online at the PBS site, if you want to watch a long video online.

I watched Part 1 last night and it's a pretty strong reminder of the of all the lies that led us into this mess. Perle, Wolfowitz, Cheney, Rumsfield, Rice and Bush need to be held accountable. The lies just had to be deliberate. It's possible that some of them thought that they were lying for a noble cause, that the ends would justify the means (peace and flowering democracies in the Mid-East -- ha!), but they were lying nevertheless. They lied about the links between Saddam and Al Qaeda and they lied about WMDs. Furthermore, they broke international law doing it, and in doing so they've strained our economy to a breaking point, they've stretched the military, they've lost to America the respect of the rest of the world, and they are losing the so-called war on terror. John McCain says we should stay the course.
