CNN_Did anyone see the exchange between John King and bush just now

[proud patriot]

:wow: Bush just was asked about Saddam and a 9/11 connection
point blank by Jonh King . Bush said thre was no evidence
linking the 2 .

He said something about Cheney also ...

[LearnedHand]

1. Holy shit!

Replay! Replay!

[Demobrat]

2. They never did say there was a connection.

Weren't you listening?

[monobrau]

3. Yep

This should be interesting.
What's funny is that the press wil nip at him now, when they have been totally complicit with the big lie.

[Renew Deal]

4. That's huge if it's true.

It is the second time in two days I have heard that Bush said that. I don't5 know if he actually said it either time. THat would be a big addmision of a lie.

[papau]

5. Bush says there are Iraq ties to 911/Al Qaida, but not Saddam - Kurdish

But the we controlled the Kurdish area.

Will our media pick up on that fact?

[notadmblnd]

9. but.... but..... but.....

Saddam WAS Iraq. How can that be?:crazy:

[ComerPerro]

6. Thats the White House's official position

Now, at least. They are saying there is no evidence of a link between bin Laden and Hussein, or Hussein and 9/11. Convenient that they say that now, seeing as they worked to convince seventy percent of Americans that there was a link.

[FubarFly]

12. Yes but Saddam still harbored terrorists and was a threat to the region,

because he was a vwery, vwery bad man.

Don't leave out the rest of the lie- er, spin.

[karlschneider]

16. To be a successful liar, one has to be VERY BRIGHT. Any moron can

tell one lie and maybe get away with it, but to continue the charade requires a hell of a lot more intelligence than this gang of retards possesses.

Drip, drip...

19. I am Geowge Dubuwyou Bush, Pwesident; I own a mansion and a yacht

Heh heh heh heh heh

[janekat]

21. worse yet - he's an EVILDOER n/t

7. Prozac Nation Misunderstood

the misinformation.

25. Black is White - Bush 2004

[Beetwasher]

8. Is he blaming Cheney?

There's a thread in LBN which claims he's naming Cheney though, as if to shift the blame for making the claim to Cheney...WTF?

[Red_Viking]

13. No Cheney in 2004?

They're probably running out of virgins to sacrifice so Cheney can stay alive. Seriously, I read and hear his health is in the toilet, always has been, and he spends most of his day resting in an undisclosed location.

I don't think he's up to the challenge, physically, of another four years, or even being the veep candidate.

This is *'s opportunity to dump the living dead, lay blame on him for those things that need blaming, let him take his Hallibuton millions, and fade into some evil behind-the-scenes role. Maybe Jeb can be the veep candidate. Bush-Bush 2004. Makes the skin crawl, huh?

:dem:

[proud patriot]

14. I was in a state of shock by the time he mentioned Cheney , but

I wouldn't say he blamed Cheney for making the claim but more
blamed him for being unclear that allowed the misunderstanding.
...Does that make sense ...:crazy:

[Terwilliger]

10. they never said there was, they just implied that it was likely

Bush sounds unusually pathetic...i dont usually listen, but that's pretty bad.

[indigo32]

11. Wow

it just keeps getting better :evilgrin:

[Warren Stuart]

15. That's funny coming from John King

During the Press Conference before the war in which Bush refused to call on Helen Thomas, it was obvious that he was calling on the reporters in seating order arrangement.

However in order to maintain the facade of spontaninety the reporters still raised their hands and called out even though they knew who was going to be called. One reporter in particular overplayed his hand a bit prompting Bush to admonish him saying "You know John this is scripted".

Of course this was John King, when it finally was John King's turn, Bush was reading from prepared remarks, (as though he already knew the questions beforehand) from the question before and ended his response with "John King".

John King has gone from a pliant punctuation mark, to a real live journalist, this could be the start of something.

They are all kiss ass, over paid motherfuckers, who don't want to lose their summer homes and third car...and who will do exactly as their republican owned corporate media editors tell them to.

[creativelcro]

18. I did it for daddy

So, the suspicion that he was blowing billions to get Saddam as revenge for his dad was true. -CV

Bush: No Proof of Saddam Role in 9-11

By TERENCE HUNT, AP White House Correspondent

WASHINGTON - President Bush said Wednesday there was no evidence that Saddam Hussein was involved in the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001 — disputing an idea held by many Americans.

"There's no question that Saddam Hussein had al-Qaida ties," the president said. But he also said, "We have no evidence that Saddam Hussein was involved with the Sept. 11" attacks.

[janekat]

23. This is not going over very well on the Yahoo message board.....

Most are saying Bush is a liar, etc. What is the make-up of that board... anybody know?

[Robbien]

24. Wow, the story has only been out for less than an hour

and the yahoo message link to this story already has over a thousand posts in it. Most of them not favorable.

[proud patriot]

26. Woa .... I wasn't sure how America Would Take this

but not good for bushy , I guess .
