Frank Rich assaults reality while accusing Cheney and Rove of the same
The New Rove-Cheney Assault on Reality
http://www.nytimes.com/2010/03/14/opinion/14rich.html


It is an okay article but when he brings up the Niger forgery he links to factcheck.org which says "Bush's "16 Words" on Iraq & Uranium: He May Have Been Wrong But He Wasn't Lying- Two intelligence investigations show Bush had plenty of reason to believe what he said in his 2003 State of the Union Address."


The uranium claim forgery was exposed before the state of the union and he went ahead and used it as 'evidence' anyway.

When Tim Russert confronted Condi about why it was included in the state of the union after it had been found to be a laughable forgery that was easily exposed by the IAEA after a quick google search.... she said "people simply forgot"

(I hope no one is trusting factcheck.org as a valid source)

1. Did you convey this to Frank?
I am sure he would want to know.

5. Well, remember that he's talking about Dubya.
He has plenty of reason to believe a lot of his fantasies because he is so divorced from reality.
