Selecting truth and untruth

How hypocritical Larry. Here we have Mr. Bush and his administration making huge exaggerations about Iraq's non-existent weapons of mass destruction and ties to Al Qaeda, and you ignore and excuse them completely.

Yet, Mr. Gore, makes an accurate statement that the recently published 9/11 report found no links between 9/11 and Saddam Husseim and you claim he lies.

The Congressional report found no ties between Iraq and 9/11 because no such tie exists. Yet, on several occasions before the war, the Bush administration claimed Iraq had ties to Al Qaeda and rhetorically associated those ties with 9/11.

It amusing. The Bush administration is engaged in precisley the kind of disinformation campaign you erroneously accuse Mr. Gore of. Of course, in Mr. Gore's case, he is only making a speech as a private citizen - pretty darn harmless. In contrast, Mr. Bush used his misinformation to spend billions of dollars to kill thousands of innocent Iraqi civilians.
