Is it a talking building in your (and Clark's) opinion? "Bush and his people constantly talk about 9/11, terrorism, and Saddam in the same speeches" They are related topics. We are in Iraq as part of the war in terrorism. It is now the "front" in the war. Get it? "outside of Cheney, not being so bold as to actually link them," Cheney never directly linked them either. I just read a Reuters article yesterday that lied in the headline by suggesting he did. You probably only read the headline, and now you spread the lie. Doesn't lying to prove your point bother you? Show the link where Cheney said this. "I would guess he has some skin in the game" Most all of your positions seem to be "guesses". I suggest listening to what Bush and Cheney have to say, and judge it on that. If you see evidence they are lying, then factore that into your opinion, and POST IT ON THE NET. Good luck. From your left link: "But Cheney left that possibility wide open in a nationally televised interview two days ago, claiming that the administration is learning "more and more" about connections between Al Qaeda and Iraq before the Sept. 11 attacks" There is a possiblity. Don't you have to have proof there was NO LINK to close the possibility? There are links between Al Quida and Saddam. This is not the same as saying they are linked. But a dunderhead like you cannot tell the difference. As long as the lie supports your hateful poistion. "Especially since everyone was fooled by that 'crafty' Saddam about the WMDs?" Do you seriously believe Saddam never had WMD's? If so (and I doubt you really believe this), why do you suppose he would not come clean and tell the world what he did with the ones that the U.N. said that he did? Why? Beause they have not been found you say it is proof that Bush lies, and all that proves is that you hate Bush. Or you are an idiot (I think it is a combination of both). "Think Tank" I know exactly what a think tank is. From what I have read there is not one called a "Mid East" think tank, and I still an curious how a think tank makes a phone call. Was it a conference call iyo? Did the whole "tank" call, or just part of the "tank"? "You know the difference between the Vietnam quagmire and the Iraq quagmire?" Fortunatley most in Iraq and most in America are not on the side of you and Saddam. Thank God for that. If he can get on the net, I am sure he will appreciate you being his mouthpiece.
