WTF is this?
Gore: Bush Lied About al-Qaida, Iraq LinkBy LIZ SIDOTI, Associated Press Writer Mostly sidelined from the presidential race, Gore emerges every few months with another stinging review of the Bush administration. The former vice president, who has grown irate and bellowed in previous appearances, took a more tempered but highly sarcastic tone on Thursday. Gore accused Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney of deliberately ignoring warnings from international intelligence services, the CIA (news - web sites) and the Pentagon before the Iraq (news - web sites) war that their claim of a link between al-Qaida and Saddam was false.
With a smirk, Gore then added: "So when the bipartisan 9/11 commission issued its report finding 'no credible evidence' of an Iraq-al-Qaida connection, it should not have come as a surprise. It should not have caught the White House off guard."
The independent, bipartisan commission looking into the terrorist attacks found "no credible evidence" of a link between the events of Sept. 11, 2001, and Iraq. As to an Iraq-al-Qaida connection, the commission found there was no apparent "collaborative relationship."
