I’m told 43% of respondents to a CNN poll say they still believe Saddam Hussein had something to do with 9/11. With that in mind, I would like to point them to these two quotes.Friday, June 18 2004:
President Bush yesterday defended his assertions that there was a relationship between Saddam Hussein’s Iraq and Osama bin Laden’s al Qaeda, putting him at odds with this week’s finding of the bipartisan Sept. 11 commission.
“The reason I keep insisting that there was a relationship between Iraq and Saddam and al Qaeda: because there was a relationship between Iraq and al Qaeda,” Bush said after a Cabinet meeting. As evidence, he cited Iraqi intelligence officers’ meeting with bin Laden in Sudan. “There’s numerous contacts between the two,” Bush said.

Saturday, September 9 2006:
The Senate intelligence committee Friday said it had found no evidence that Saddam Hussein had ties to Al-Qaida or provided safe harbor to one of its most notorious operatives, Abu Musab al-Zarqawi — conclusions contradicting claims by the Bush administration before it invaded Iraq.
In a long-awaited report, the committee determined that the former Iraqi dictator was wary of Al-Qaida, repeatedly rebuffed requests from its leader, Osama bin Laden, for assistance and sought to capture Zarqawi when the deadly terrorist turned up in Baghdad.

No need for a grand jury, no need for DNA evidence, no need for a stained dress. Your president lied to you. He has contnuously lied to us and has sent thousands to die for his made-up neo-con bullshit. He, and his vice president, shoud be impeached.
Don’t take my word for it. Read the report yourself (in PDF format).
I had the chance to see an advance screener copy of ABC’s Path to 9/11 mini-series, which will be airing Sunday and Monday. The five-and-a-half movie is being assailed by liberals accusing the producers of taking liberties with the historical record. ABC defends the production by saying it is not a documentary but a dramatic retelling. I don’t know about that, but I have to say the movie was exceptionally well-written and well-acted. I was impressed with the nail-biting suspense and action — especially the way it ended. At the risk of spoiling it for people, I thought it was really cool how they show the president landing a helicopter on the wing of the American Airlines Flight 77, killing Mohamed Atta with his bare hands, and then pulling off Atta’s beard to reveal it’s really former President Bill Clinton! Unbelievable! And if that wasn’t cool enough, Bush kills all the other terrorists in the cockpit and then lands the plane safely on the roof of the World Trade Center! I have to tell you the special effects in this part were really exceptional and look as good as any Hollywood blockbuster.
It was ticking me off that I couldn’t hook up my iPod to my laptop without losing all the podcasts I synch-up from my desktop. I found however that there is a way to keep iTunes ftom automatically synching to an iPod. I learned it from 
Has Comcast failed again? I think it was last year and in 2002 that their main DNS server failed, knocking out their customers’ Internet access nationally. And it feels like this has happened again. I was unable to get my e-mail or reach any websites this morning…until I changed my DNS server.
The President is off his meds again! Call the White House HR Department. Unable to stop being the drunken fratboy among his elders at the G8 Summit, President Bush tried to give a love squeeze to the German Chancellor. Ms Merkel reacted surprisingly coldly to Mr Smooth’s advances.
