Declassified NIE Shows Cheney and Bush Misled Americans

The National Intelligence Estimate — “the most authoritative document that the intelligence community produces” — was delivered to President Bush and Vice President Cheney in April 2006. It was declassified today. Here’s a key excerpt:

The Iraq conflict has become the ’cause celebre’ for jihadists, breeding a deep resentment of US involvement in the Muslim world and cultivating supporters for the global jihadist movement.

President Bush, August 21 2006:

Snip...

Vice President Cheney, September 10, 2006:

1. No more of this "misled" shit

They lied!

Say it loud ... scream it from the rooftops ... repeat it every chance you get:

THEY LIED!!!!!!!!

2. the rat bastards LIED to get their war on....

They LIED to America. What's worse is we knew they were lying. We knew it then and we know it now. We've known it all along. Now the "official reports" are exposing the lies. Don't ever forget that this is not new information-- many many many of us knew they were lying back in 2002. I'm convinced that most in congress knew they were lying, too.

6. Yep, They LIED and How Many DIED...

Inexcusable..

We have to demand accountability!

Cheney appeared on MTP just a week ago and bald faced LIED to Russert!

Find the clip TIM!

5. Yeah. Truly. Let's not tiptoe around it anymore. They frickin' LIED.

Misled is too tidy for a global fiasco that's cost THOUSANDS of lives, including - what? 27-and-some HUNDRED of ours? Misled is too timid a word for a deliberate fuckup of this magnitude. If people can yammer about Clinton lying about cheating on his wife, then WE can CERTAINLY say bush LIED us into a frickin' WAR. The sin is FAR more profound. Let's use words that fit.
