Now you're caught in a lie when you say "Bush let the Bin Laden family members here in the USA leave the country just after 9/11 over the objections of the FBI...why?"

Richard Clarke admitted ago that he was the one that authorized the bin Laden relatives to leave. Do try to keep up and don't take everything Michael Moore says at face value. This lie, along with 58 others in Moore's crockumentary, is addressed here with links to proof.

Clarke took issue with some elements of filmmaker Michael Moore's new documentary, "Fahrenheit 9/11," which depicts how the Bush administration allowed Saudi nationals and members of Osama bin Laden's family to leave the United States days after the Sept. 11 attacks.

Clarke said he thought the Saudi government was "perfectly justified" in wanting its citizens to leave the United States out of fears of "vigilantism" by Americans.

The Saudis were not allowed to leave until the FBI cleared them of posing any danger and having knowledge of Osama bin Laden's whereabouts, Clarke said.

Making the incident a big part of the movie was a mistake, said Clarke, who added that he agrees with many things Moore stands for.

You asked, "Why did he object to forming the 9/11 commission?"

Hell, it's obvious from the actions of several members of the commission that finding out about the causes and failures of the 9/11 attacks were secondary to political considerations such as defeating Bush.

This part is really contradictory. You said, "Last time I checked Bush claims to be the President and he and he alone authorized the War. That Congress played into his hands is sad."

Which is it? Did Bush alone authorize the War or did Congress Authorize the Use of United States Armed Forces Against Iraq? You're being completely irrational.

As for "Bush lied to the USA. Non of the Intel was as he made it out to be. Intel is always ambiguous that he made it seem clear and precise is BS. For christ sake he had maps with actual circles where hardware was to be found and guess what...nothing was there."

Did Bush personally analyze satellite images? No. Did he personally try to connect the dots from communications intercepts? No. Bush received reports from agencies like the CIA, DIA, NRO, NSA, and the whole alphabet soup of the intel community. Based on what he was given, he made a decision. As we're likely to hear on the news today, it appears the CIA wasn't completely forthcoming to Bush with what it knew. Whose fault is that?

What he did know what that Saddam had chemical weapons in the past. That's historical fact. He also used them in the past. What wasn't certain was the current status of those weapons (the ones that supposedly didn't exist but seem to be popping up from time to time lately). Bush also knew that Saddam had supported terrorism, and not just against Israel. The idea that WMDs might end up in the hands of terrorists was a risk that Bush was unwilling to accept, and it's one that I agree with.
