"...President Bush's credibility has come under attack because he cited, in his State of the Union address, a British report that Iraq tried to buy uranium from Niger...."

W never used the word "Niger" in his state of the union address. He said source was from "Africa." Can't these people get the quote right?

'These people' are stating the assertion just the way they choose, so they are not erring by adding Niger, they are creating their impression as they choose, as a deceit on their part.

The misdirection/bait-and-switch appears to be working as the leftist democrat goons intended. Notice how the focus is directed to missiles, when the actual dangerous delivery system for WMDs are the thousands of terrorists trained in Iraqi camps? Notice how WMD's of the nuclear variety are touted as 'undiscovered, even at this many months since taking Iraq', when the other WMDs Saddam has used on Iranians and Kurds are usually dismissed with 'well, where is all the anthrax the administration spoke of' ... and it was actually Blix who noted tons declared but not accounted for!

Democrats and their political goon squad (with members like Bagala, Matthews, and Carvile) play upon the failings of the electorate to pay close attention. That's why the democrats get away with outright lies and gross mischaracterizations ... and it is ultimately a great insult to the American people that the democrats expect we the people to be deceiveable at democrat whim.

Every time a democrat politician or democrat operative of the media (like Chris Matthews or Paul Bagala) spews forth a lie or repeats a dem talking points false assertion, it is ultimately democrat condescencion over the American people, assuming the people are to stupid to catch them in their lies and mischaracterizations ... what's frightening to me is, they appear to be correct! The DNC have defended the indefensible for three plus decades and the American people don't appear to have figured it out but have rather changed from affirmers of LIFE to transactionalists accepting of infanticide because the democrats defend it!

These people can't get anything right...including their claim that Bush said Saddam was an "imminent threat." They have presented only those facts that support their position, while they ignore others (the very thing they accuse Bush of doing). They have continually taken quotes out of context and blatantly lied about others. I've never seen so many "un-named" sources in my life...and other people who just plain don't exist. Baghdad Bob would be proud.

1) Not to mention that "...again" should have been added to their denunciations.

2) Our CIA considered the general claim that Iraq was seeking to buy uranium unreliable (not "false") because they thought Iraq didn't need any more.
