In case anyone missed it last week Pentagon Study finds no link between Saddam and al Qaida "An exhaustive review of more than 600,000 Iraqi documents that were captured after the 2003 U.S. invasion has found no evidence that Saddam Hussein's regime had any operational links with Osama bin Laden's al Qaida terrorist network."
"President Bush and his aides used Saddam's alleged relationship with al Qaida, along with Iraq's supposed weapons of mass destruction, as arguments for invading Iraq after the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. Then-Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld claimed in September 2002 that the United States had "bulletproof" evidence of cooperation between the radical Islamist terror group and Saddam's secular dictatorship."

I can't believe you are still writing about it. This "link" was a joke from the start. 100 or so million americans believed it. Nobody else did. (as much as I can talk on behalf of world population :) )... Kudos to brainwashing machine in this cradle of the democracy.
I know it was a joke, hence the "duh". I wasn't clear that the news here was that the Pentagon now says this, in spite of the fact Cheney is still lying about.
Incredible. Reminds me of Brezhnev... The dude and this whole administration is on another planet. Scary stuff.
btw, was just reading today:
