Sorry Rove, Bush Lied About Iraq
by Robert Parry
http://consortiumnews.com/2010/030510.html
Excerpt:
Karl Rove claims one of the biggest mistakes of Bush's presidency was not aggressively challenging critics who charged that Bush lied about the reasons for the Iraq War, an accusation that Rove insists was false and unfair. But the problem with Roves account is that not only did Bush oversee the twisting of intelligence to justify invading Iraq but he subsequently lied and lied repeatedly about how Iraq had responded to UN inspection demands.
So, while it may be impossible to say for certain what Bush believed about Iraq possessing WMDs, it cant be argued that Bush didnt know that Iraq declared that it had destroyed its WMD stockpiles and let U.N. inspectors in to see for themselves in the months before the invasion.
They will continue to tell lies as long as nobody refutes them.
