Here, i'll hold your hand

So you're asking "Polly, how come bush keeps talking about Iraq and Al Qaida being linked when everyone knows they aren't? are they crazy?"

No dear reader. let me show you the war (via the times over the weekend):

One outside adviser to the White House said the administration expected the debate over Iraq's ties to Al Qaeda to be "a regular feature" of the presidential campaign. "They feel it's important to their long-term credibility on the issue of the decision to go to war," the adviser said. "It's important because it's part of the overall view that Iraq is part of the war on terror. If you discount the relationship between Iraq and Al Qaeda, then you discount the proposition that it's part of the war on terror. If it's not part of the war on terror, then what is it--some cockeyed adventure on the part of George W. Bush?"


truth be damned!
