You Bushies are so immature and dishonest. The NY Times is one of the most guilty major media services which parroted the Bushie lies about Iraq. It had to retract massive stories. It also has a reporter in jail now protecting Karl Rove as her source for outing a CIA agent. The truth is a valuable commodity and a cornerstone of democracy. Never again should we the people let any political party lie to and mislead the press, especially about such an important matter as war. We need a strong press and an honest press. We need a press which holds political and business leaders accountable. The Iraq War has been a huge fiasco based on very dishonest claims. It is very costly to us but very profitable to Bushie cronies. The Iraq War is what Bush has based his presidency upon, and it is a total failure. It has actually quadrupled terrorism in the world. Bush claimed it would do the opposite. Now when will Fox News retract their many lies about WMD's and the rest leading up to the war? They haven't and they won't. Therein lies the difference. At least when the MY Times realizes it's printed something wrong, it immediately retracts. Fox News and all the conservative news services never do.
