Republican Sen. John McCain of Arizona said on NBC's "Today" show that a "certain problem" existed with U.S. credibility in Europe and that hearings should be held, though he added he was "confident we will be able to make the case for conflict in Iraq."

Democratic Sen. Jay Rockefeller of West Virginia, also said on NBC that a "very thorough investigation" was needed into why the United States went to war against Iraq, given that weapons of mass destruction have yet to be uncovered.

"We need to have a very thorough investigation into what happened that caused the president to go ahead and proceed with the war," he said, adding that a joint hearing by the Senate Intelligence and Armed Services Committees would be best.

McCain backed the suggestion. It is entirely appropriate for the Congress to hold oversight hearings," he said, adding any delay would not be in the interests of the American people.

Joe Scarborough also calls for investigations. But I can tell he's manoevring to blame it on the CIA and Clinton. Sounds far-fetched but what them try it. Bushies need a scapegoat outside the White House for the biggest lies every told the American people. And it's not the CIA's fault. They told the White House they had no evidence, but the WH chose to ignore that and tell us the opposite.

RE: Your president lied to us so he could go to war! Deal with it!

"Kristol stressed that he didn't believe
charges from Bush administration critics
that the president had deliberately
distorted WMD intelligence. "

"that there could have been misstatements made, I think in good faith"


A misstatement in good faith is not a lie. Did you even read the article you posted?

So tell me what you are accomplishing with your Bush-bashing? I mean are you really so naive and ignorant that you think it does any good?
