It's Gotten Worse

I really think the Bush administration has gotten a lot more blatant in the ridiculous statements. Here's what the Senate Report said the relationship between Iraq and al Qaeda: "Saddam Hussein attempted, unsuccessfully, to locate and capture al-Zarqawi and…the regime did not have a relationship with, harbor, or turn a blind eye toward Zarqawi." Pretty clear huh?

Except Cheney on Sunday said their was a relationship, Bush said there was one, and now Tony Snow repeats the lie. What the video or read the transcript.

QUESTION: Saddam Hussein knew they were there. That’s it for the relationship?
SNOW: That’s pretty much it.
QUESTION: The Senate report said they didn’t turn a blind eye to that.
SNOW: The Senate report — rather than get — you know what? I don’t want to get into the vagaries of the Senate report.

This has to be a bad dream. It's Orwellian. It's a bad Saturday Night Live skit. I'm literally getting nauseous as I think about this.
