What was disavowed by the Bush Admin?

Links to verbatim quotes please.

Are you saying that the Bush Admin is calling the 9/11
Commission, the Senate Intelligence Committee & the Iraq
Survey Group all liars? Because if what you FALSELY assert is
true, then Bush is calling them liars & calling all their
irrefutable facts lies.

But then, we both know Bush did not disavow any such thing.
The facts in all the reports prove what I said was factually
accurate. And that you continue to continue to believe in
liberal propaganda as your version of reality.

Saddam had numerous ties to terrorist groups. He harbored,
trained, financed, supported & conspired with them. He
continued to improve his WMD programs right up until the day
he was removed. And he shared some of his WMD expertise with
terrorists.

Just the facts.

"So he was in violation of the U.N resolutions why then did not the U.N. condone our going in there ?"

LOL! Are you trying to be funny?

Have you not heard about the Oil-for-Food scandal & how
Saddam bribed the horrifically corrupt UN along with France,
Russia & China (who just happened to be members of the UN
Security council with veto power)?

"THE original terrorist was OBL.. After 9/11 we were to go after him. Do you not think that other countries are training terrorists... Iran,Syria,Saudi Arabia. WHY Iraq.."

OBL was not the ONLY terrorist. And OBL had clear ties to
Saddam. That's an irrefutable fact. And we have learned since
we removed Saddam that it was clearly the right thing to do
in the global WOT.

And oh, BTW, we did go after OBL first. And we did a great
job taking away OBL's main domain for training terrorists,
killed thousands of al qaeda terrorists, including most of
their leadership & put OBL on the run. Apparently those facts
have escaped your version of history.

Why Iraq? Gee Suma, we already had thousands of troops there
with Saddam shooting at them daily in violation of UN
Resolutions. Should we have removed them to go take out
another terror sponsoring country first? OH wait! We did go
elsewhere first. Afghanistan!

Do you think the US has unlimited resources?

I worry we will never get OBL. We just have a high bounty on his head. Our interests seem to have gone elsewhere.

I think we might be much better off if we just knew where he was and what he was doing, without him knowing that we knew.

He would become marginalized as an effective leader very quickly and his minions could be exposed and picked off, one by one. He wouldn't become a "martyr" in his followers' eyes. At the same time, no new leadership would rise to fill the gap and take his place.

Hmm. Isn't that what's happening now?<g>

The above has been disavowed by the Bush administration.

Incorrect. You need to get a handle on the facts....

"When one extends all ones energies into one place and in my opinion the wrong place our energies are dissipated."

Typical liberal revisionist history.

Do you think we have only spent time, energy & resources in
Iraq? if you do, you are sadly mistaken. We have resources in
multiple countries fighting the GWOT & have had them there
for years. That's a fact.

And the Iraq Survey Group, that has real first hand facts on
their side, completely disagrees with you. They believe that
Saddam's Iraq was far more dangerous that we believed it was
before we removed him. But then, the Iraq Survey Group drew
their conclusions from real facts, unlike you.
