Holey Sugar! Did anyone see NBC Nightly News? They were DEBUNKING Bush Iran claims.
They basically debunked the three claims Bush is using against Iran:

1) Weapons from Iran: how can you really tell that Iranians are currently filtering those weapons into Iraq just because they are made in Iran.

2) Letter stating that Iran is sending mass troops into Iraq to fight Americans: A U.S. official said it's mostly Al Queda and Iraqi Sunnis that the U.S. is fighting.

I forget the 3rd one. Anyone else see it?

7. I heard that this morning. Soledad quoted it like it was gospel..
on CNN. How patronizing toward Iraqi's in general and the "insurgents". Some people will believe anything.
