Cheney's Saddam-Zarqawi Lie
this was just reported on Reuters ...

Title: CIA Report Finds No Conclusive Zarqawi-Saddam Link

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A CIA report has found no conclusive evidence that former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein harbored Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, which the Bush administration asserted before the invasion of Iraq.

"There's no conclusive evidence the Saddam Hussein regime had harbored Zarqawi," a U.S. official said on Tuesday about the CIA findings.

ABC quoted an unnamed senior U.S. official as saying that the CIA document raises "serious questions" about Bush administration assertions that Zarqawi found sanctuary in pre-war Baghdad.

"The official says there is no clear cut evidence that Saddam Hussein even knew Zarqawi was in Baghdad," ABC reported.

1. Just waiting for...
...the 98 page document from the White House that explains why they believe they're right and the CIA report is wrong.

Funny that it takes a CIA document to cause "serious questions" about the Bush administration to arise.

I'm curious if that senior U.S. official said earlier, "Forget about the history of the administration and the viewpoint of most intelligent citizens, we won't believe anything until a CIA report comes out. Wait...who's the head of the CIA anyway?"

Sheesh. More possible trouble for Shrub/Cheney, followed by more coverup within the next 24 hours.
