January 14, 2004 2 days after '60 Minutes' hoax, O'Neill changes tune Former Treasury Secretary Paul O’Neill said Tuesday that the Bush administration’s plans for "regime change" in Iraq were simply "a continuation of planning that had been going on" since the Clinton administration. President Clinton signed the Iraq Liberation Act into law on Oct. 31, 1998. The law made it U.S. policy to encourage the ouster of Saddam Hussein. Clinton ordered three days of intensive bombing of Iraq in December 1998. O’Neill’s statement Tuesday on President Bush’s Iraq policy had an entirely different tone from the "60 Minutes" version of O’Neill’s feelings two nights earlier. The "60 minutes" installment was to promote a book, written by Ron Suskind, about O’Neill. The "60 Minutes" show even presented a 2001 map of Iraq, purportedly prepared by Bush's Pentagon in planning to carve up Iraqi oil fields after Saddam was removed. The map story turned out to be a hoax. You might say one thing to describe the real world, and then you might say something else to sell a book. Frank Warner

Yes, Kenneth oh legal mind you. It goes to credibility of which 60 minutes has just the opposite. No credibility. Every 60 Minutes program should be viewed as possible BS until proven otherwise. How the hell can you say 60 Minutes isn't the issue when it is your sole source of information?
