Please enlighten us as to what the 9/11 commission, etc. is unaware of. Also, please cc your response to them. I'm sure they'd love to know what Bush lied about.
"We gave him a chance to allow the inspectors in, and he wouldn't let them in."
Bush Press Conference 7/14/2003

Not True
UN inspectors went into Iraq to search for possible weapons violations from December 2002 into March 2003

"The British government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa."
State of the Union Address – 1/28/2003

Not True
The documents implied were known at the time by Bush to be forged and not credible.

"Satellite photographs reveal that Iraq is rebuilding facilities at [past nuclear] sites."
Bush speech to the nation – 10/7/2002

Not True
Two months of inspections at these former Iraqi nuclear sites found zero evidence of prohibited nuclear activities there
IAEA report to UN Security Council – 1/27/2003

"Our intelligence sources tell us that he (Saddam) has attempted to purchase high-strength aluminum tubes suitable for nuclear weapons production."
State of the Union Address – 1/28/2003

Not True
The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) as well as dozens of leading scientists declared said tubes unsuitable for nuclear weapons production -- months before the war.

"Evidence from intelligence sources, secret communications and statements by people
now in custody reveal that
Saddam Hussein aids and protects terrorists, including members of Al Qaida."
State of the Union Address – 1/28/2003

Not True
Except for a handful of communications, to date, not a shred of evidence connecting Hussein with Al Qaida or any other known terrorist organizations have been revealed.

“We have also discovered through intelligence
that Iraq has a growing fleet of manned and unmanned aerial vehicles that could be used to disperse chemical or biological weapons across broad areas."
State of the Union Address – 1/28/2003

Not True
Zero Aerial Vehicles Found
Not a single aerial vehicle capable of dispersing chemical or biological weapons, has been found anywhere in Iraq

Hey do you have anything relevant to add?

No?

Then continue posting lies and half lies that you copy and paste from another website.

Probably right, but since everything the President says becomes "public record" and is subject to heavy scrutiny, they've still gotta be pretty careful.
