People who have access to this information have said (like the 9-11 commission, for one) there were no ties. Why lie in such an open way?

Senate report: No Saddam, al-Qaida link
Long-awaited analysis also finds that anti-Saddam group misled U.S.
Updated: 3:31 p.m. ET Sept 8, 2006
WASHINGTON - There’s no evidence Saddam Hussein had ties with al-Qaida, according to a Senate report issued Friday on prewar intelligence that Democrats say undercuts President Bush’s justification for invading Iraq.
Bush administration officials have insisted on a link between the Iraqi regime and terror leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi. Intelligence agencies, however, concluded there was none.
The declassified document released Friday by the intelligence committee also explores the role that inaccurate information supplied by the anti-Saddam exile group the Iraqi National Congress had in the march to war.
It concludes that postwar findings do not support a 2002 intelligence community report that Iraq was reconstituting its nuclear program, possessed biological weapons or ever developed mobile facilities for producing biological warfare agents.
The 400-page report comes at a time when Bush is emphasizing the need to prevail in Iraq to win the war on terrorism while Democrats are seeking to make that policy an issue in the midterm elections.
It discloses for the first time an October 2005 CIA assessment that prior to the war Saddam’s government “did not have a relationship, harbor, or turn a blind eye toward Zarqawi and his associates.”
Bush and other administration officials have said that the presence of Zarqawi in Iraq before the war was evidence of a connection between Saddam’s government and al-Qaida. Zarqawi was killed by a U.S. airstrike in June this year.
Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich., a member of the committee, said the long-awaited report was “a devastating indictment of the Bush-Cheney administration’s unrelenting, misleading and deceptive attempts” to link Saddam to al-Qaida.
The administration, said Sen. John D. Rockefeller, D-W.Va., top Democrat on the committee, “exploited the deep sense of insecurity among Americans in the immediate aftermath of the Sept. 11 attacks, leading a large majority of Americans to believe — contrary to the intelligence assessments at the time — that Iraq had a role in the 9/11 attacks.”
The chairman of the committee, Sen. Pat Roberts, R-Kan., said it has long been known that prewar assessments of Iraq “were a tragic intelligence failure.”

Wrong, the White house said there was no evidence that Saddam had ties with al Qaeda.

Cheney was cited in this AFP (Agence France-Presse) news item as coming on US national radio insisting "they were present before we invaded Iraq," when talking about Al Qaeda. He may be indicating that they were present, without actually meaning they were INSIDE Iraq? He may be deluded. He may be obtuse. In any case the Pentagon's report states that Saddam's Iraq did not have any Al Qaeda.

Funny, but while Saddam's Iraq had no Al Qaeda, how is it that Bush's Iraq seems to be FULL of Al Qaeda?
Additionally, Mr. Bush has publicly admitted the lack of any links between Saddam Hussein & Al Qaeda.

The Republicans like to use the tactic of repeating the same lies over and over and hope that eventually their sheep will become so used to hearing it and they will finally believe it.
Sort of like when they keep saying Barack Obama is a muslim. The guy is a christian and has been for his entire life.

They take Cheney off of life support once in a while and wheel him out to say rediculous stuff on Fox News and Limbaugh.

He says nonsense like this because he cannot admit that he was wrong. He only says it on right wing radio shows because they are the only forums that give a platform to deluded neo-cons and their made-up stories.

Cheney suffered a brain injury from the recoil of the shotgun blast that nearly killed his attorney

Cheney likes to beat a broken drum. He and his brotheren don't like to admit when they are wrong. They don't like to be challenged on thier opinions thus they will only go on con programs.

The 45 record he thinks is his mind has a huge scratch, and it makes him repeat the same things over and over again.
