Like most other republicans? - JCSaint, on 10/12/2007, -3/+15No. He just makes facts up that suit his situation.
- Junkyarddawg, on 10/11/2007, -1/+12@thcobbs: Of course they were lies, and yes there is proof of that. Google or wiki the "downingstreet memo". Or, read this: http://www.tompaine.com/articles/2006/01/13/proof_bush_deceived_america.php
Bush intentionally hoodwinked congress because he wanted to start a war with Iraq. - shawnfassett, on 10/12/2007, -4/+14Jesus...was Boner drunk again on the House floor?
- mauiwowi, on 10/11/2007, -1/+10Everyone based their vote on lies put out by Bush anyways so what's the difference?
- reeder, on 10/11/2007, -1/+10He just said that so Fox News could use the clip as retro-truth.
- thcobbs, on 10/11/2007, -0/+8Heh....
Now this was a good find. Someone needs to fire their fact-checker. - EntropyMan, on 10/11/2007, -1/+8No. He's right. Those 133 votes against were all cast by one congressman, Joe "144 Hands" Flaherty.
No one knows why Rep. Flaherty only voted 133 of his 144 hands against the war. Was he unsure? Or was he simply tired? - mauiwowi, on 10/11/2007, -1/+7Watch the recent Moyers documentary, plenty of evidence there.
Why did such a high percentage of Americans believe Saddam was behind 9-11? Because they twisted the facts and used knowingly wrong intelligence to further their agenda. The plan for war was in place before 9-11.
Sadaam was obviously a bad guy and maybe removing him was a good thing, but that was not the reason given for going to war. The guy wanted absolute control over his country. The idea that he would allow rouge terrorists in his country is inherently absurd as experts testify in the Moyers piece.
Not to mention outing Plame after Wilson spilled the beans. Why do that if it was simply a mistake?
Howabout Tenet? The guy might as well have said 'slam dunk' while watching a basketball game and they used that as the case for war.
The evidence goes on and on but I'm tired of typing lol. - IrishJoe, on 10/11/2007, -2/+7Boner knows that only Internet sites like ThinkProgress will point out his and his friend's lies. The Corporate Mainstream Media is bought and paid for and won't lift a finger to point out lies like these. It won't help their bottom line.
- faithhealer, on 10/11/2007, -1/+5While completely wrong about the number, he is also wrong about what they were voting for. It was not a vote to invade Iraq. They voted for the use of force, if necessary, if the weapons inspectors found that Saddam had WMD’s. They stressed at the time--in order to convince congress to pass the resolution--that it was not a vote to invade, only a vote to authorize force to give diplomatic efforts more teeth.
Of course now, they say it was a vote to invade. Experienced politicians (like Hillary Clinton and John Kerry) should have seen this coming and voted no in the first place. Of course it was a mistake, Hillary--you should have known better. - quakerorts, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2Fact checker? Don't be silly. Facts are for wimps!
- DiggIz4Kids, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2Soros! Soros! Soros!
He bought the democrat party and now commands that the leftist tools do his bidding. Soros is the new God of liberalism. - mauiwowi, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2whiskeymb are you referring to thcobbs or Bush? :-)
- whiskeymb, on 10/11/2007, -3/+4@junkyarddawg
don't confuse him with facts, he's already made up his mind... - inactive, on 10/11/2007, -1/+1He was only off by 132!
- thcobbs, on 10/11/2007, -9/+2They weren't lies... Unless you have evidence that Bush KNEW the intelligence was wrong and KNOWINGLY misled congress.
