How are they all just honestly mistaken, but only Bush lied? |
Who says Congress has the same information?
Did you forget that Putin's information agent gave his information to Bush, Bush thanked the agent and that's the last anyone heard of that information? It just vanished...until Putin talked about it.
Also, if Bush says certain things, the person who is leading the country, should he not have the benefit of the doubt due to the fact that he's the LEADER of the country?
It'd be like if you had a Boss at work and they told you something, and you instantly ignore them because you just don't like them. On top of that, who exactly mislead who? As I supplied above there have been many misleading statements given by people in Bush's Administration.
Some of the statements Bush has stated during his speeches hint at how iraq(Or Saddam) had weapons of mass destruction, and others about how dangerous he was/is. Then he has one where he says about how he doesn't want us to go to war with Iraq(Around Dec. of 2002 if memory serves me correctly), yet we went to war with Iraq.
The original reason given dealt with Weapons of Mass Destruction.
Those weapons have yet to be find, and Bush's Administration had information telling them that there was little chance that those weapons existed.
