Quote by: Dieval Nothing any of you have pointed out justified the claim that Paul made. Where did Bush SPECIFICALLY say that Iraq was to blame for 9/11?
Tying 9/11 to Iraq is not the same as BLAIMING Iraq for 9/11... |
That is a distinction without a difference. Given that Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11, tying the two together is the functional equivalent of the old Bush/Cheney lie blaming Iraq for involvement in 9/11.
Cindy Sheehan the mother of Spc. Casey Austin Sheehan, who was killed in action in Iraq on 04/04/04. said it well:

I felt like I was in Bizarro World as I heard George speak about 9/11 five times and mention terrorism 31 times, even though these rationales for war have been disproved repeatedly. I think George thinks that since we believed him once about terrorism vis-à-vis Iraq, that we must therefore be gullible enough to believe him this time. I don't know, and I am not a professional pundit, but my theory is he might have mentioned 9/11 to manipulate our emotions and maybe even frighten us a little again?
