Back in 1991 when the first Bush administration was seeking Congressional approval for a resolution to expel Saddam Hussein from Kuwait (basically, to change the original "Operation Desert Shield" to "Operation Desert Storm"), Congress held a series of hearings in which a bunch of completely fraudulent testimony was provided by people who turned out to be family members of the staff of the Kuwaiti embassy in Washington, D.C. Remember all those stories about Iraqi soldiers going through Kuwaiti hospitals and removing all the babies from the incubators?
I seem to recall Bush the Elder shamelessly repeating those discredited stories recently when talking about the righteousness of the current war.
