"I did not have sexual realtions with the WMD."

U.S. President George W. Bush will use a Veterans Day speech on Friday to fight back against Democratic charges that the White House misused intelligence to gain support for the Iraq war, administration officials said.

"The president is going to directly take on the false attacks that Democratic leaders have been making," a senior administration official told Reuters.

In other words,

"I did not have sexual realtions with the WMD."

Oh, and also in this article, Stephen Hadley, who met with Sismi's Pollari, and appears to be hip deep in the Niger Forgeries, said this:

"I point out that some of the critics today believed, themselves, in 2002 that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction. They stated that belief, and they voted to authorize the use of force in Iraq," said Stephen Hadley, the president's national security adviser, on Thursday.

"For those critics to ignore their own past statements, exposes the hollowness of their current attacks," he said.


So, Mr. Hadley, you are attacking your critics for believing the intelligence you were manipulating. Interesting defense.

And, by the way, the White House seems to be back to "misrepresenting" without shame. It worked when everybody trusted them; I'll be very curious to see how it works out now with Bush's poll numbers where they are, especially the trust and integrity numbers.
