I just found a good analysis by Bill O'Reilly:

EXCERPT:

At this point we have four independent sources that say there was no lying by President Bush and British Prime Minister Blair regarding weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. The 9-11 Commission, the Senate Intelligence Committee, Lord Butler’s British investigation and Vladimir Putin have all stated that the WMD intelligence was faulty, but the politicians did nothing untoward.

So what should be done with the people who accused Bush and Blair of intentionally lying to bring war to the world? Have you heard any of these folks apologize for their slander? I haven’t.

For the sake of argument, can you imagine if President Bush had ignored the CIA’s assertion that Saddam had anthrax and other deadly substances? Can you just picture what would have happened if Al Qaeda attacked America with deadly weapons acquired from Baghdad, and Bush had rejected intelligence reports about WMDs? My God! President Bush would have gone down in history as the most incompetent president of all time.

Every time I hear some extremist rant about presidential “lies,” I get furious. These people are putting all of us in danger. Many far left Web sites are simply out of control, spewing forth deceit and allegations that have no basis in fact whatsoever. Unfortunately, these people now have sympathy in the mainstream press and can get their libel widely distributed. Let me give you one example from personal experience.

It is all so dishonest and disheartening. The ultra-left fanatics will pretty much say and do anything to destroy those with whom they disagree. These people are hurting all Americans by obstructing the true terrorist danger we are facing today.

The lesson here is simple. Bush and Blair did not lie. And it’s far past time that clear-thinking Americans begin holding the true liars accountable. Our lives may depend on it.
