I certainly wish people would pay more attention to this stuff. But have you asked yourself why the administration is not making this case?
I think they have, to some extent. And they've been successful, to some extent. More than 50% of Americans believe Iraq played a role in the 9/11 attacks among others.
But I share your frustration. The links between Hussein and AQ are so glaring and so abundant, nobody should be able to push the "no connection" mantra with a straight face or an ounce of credibility. Yet they do, and get away with it all the time.
When I look at all of this information, I don't ask myself why they haven't made the case. I ask myself how they can make the case more effectively. There's a lot of information out there, and the average American swing-voter may not have the attention-span to follow this stuff to its obvious conclusion. "How do we reach those people with the truth?" is the question we need to be asking ourselves.
