Bush blatantly ties Iraq to 9/11 in his SOTU speech...
I must confess. I did not watch the Liar's speech last night. However, I did catch a clip this morning on MSNBC and they showed him commenting about 9/11 and the terrorists in Iraq...and no one lifted an eyebrow. Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11. We are in Iraq because Bush and Cheney and Rumsfeld chose to go to Iraq - not because it was necessary. Where do people think we would be in this "war on terror" today if we had not invaded Iraq? Most of our troops have died in this unnecessary war in Iraq - not in the "war on terror". There is a difference.

1. It was no more than 3 minutes into the speech, and he said it.
" terra, blah, blah. . . 9/11 . . ." That's when I turned it off.

2. And you expected something different?
The man has nothing to say, has done nothing, so terra, terra, terra, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11. I'm surprised he didn't say it for 51 minutes and 7 seconds.

3. As long as Dubya...
plays the 'Terra' and Weapons of Mass Destruction cards he can easily distract folks from the real problems facing our country. Just like Quayle and 'Family Values' back in the day... as long as he can whip us into a sweat, worrying that a suicide bomber is living next door... we don't think about healthcare or education or abuses of the executive branch... as long as we're talking about binLaden...we're not talking about Abramoff

4. bushco does a great job of continuing to sell their fabricated 'reality'..
of the Iraq war. Biggest problem is that many of the American people believe the fabricated lies.
