Actually, I think Kay's assessment may be very much on target - the President acted upon a failed intelligence. I think that's a more plausible scenario than suggesting a deliberate lie on Mr. Bush's part. But it still doesn't let him off the hook. Since when do we justify a war that results in over five hundred dead Americans and over 10,000 dead innocent Iraqis, based upon an uncertain and inaccurate intelligence? Imagine what life would be like in this country if that's how our criminal justice system worked - shoot first and ask questions later?

THe buch stops on the President's desk and this President has failed this country in a most awful way by conducting a war that was completely unnecessary.
