Here is my post #77 again.

What really gets me steamed is Mathews is bent out of shape about W asking Clarke to look into possible Iraq connections right after Sept 11, as if we immediately knew with 100% certainty everybody who was involved. No need to investigate. Crime solved. In fact there are quite a lot of ties between Iraq and al-Qaeda, and some between Iraq and 9-11.

Case Closed OSAMA BIN LADEN and Saddam Hussein had an operational relationship from the early 1990s to 2003 that involved training in explosives and weapons of mass destruction, logistical support for terrorist attacks, al Qaeda training camps and safe haven in Iraq, and Iraqi financial support for al Qaeda--perhaps even for Mohamed Atta--according to a top secret U.S. government memorandum obtained by THE WEEKLY STANDARD.

You bet, ironman. Thanks for emphasizing it.

Facts matter.

This bears repeating again and again and again and again.

No need to investigate.

Why, didn't you hear Richard Clarke say, "I told him, 'Mr. President, Saddam Hussein did not do this, AQ did."

Etched in stone.
