Cheney's 'Dishonest and Reprehensible' Charges

Last night, Vice President Dick Cheney said that "the suggestion that's
been made by some U.S. senators that the President of the United States
or any member of this Administration purposely misled the American
people on pre-war intelligence is one of the most dishonest and
reprehensible charges ever aired in this city." Let's be clear:
President Bush and many members of his administration misled the
American people on pre-war intelligence. It was either purposeful or
the result of gross negligence. These claims were repeatedly advanced
to justify the invasion of Iraq. Blaming the people who point it out is
one of the most dishonest and reprehensible charges ever aired by Vice
President Cheney. White House senior advisor Dan Bartlett added that
the administration's critics have "crossed a bright line" by claiming
that the Bush administration misled Americans into war because "they
have no facts on their side." Actually, there are mountains of facts to
support the claim. Here's a selection of grossly misleading claims made
before the war by Cheney himself:

CHENEY SAID IT WAS AN 'ABSOLUTE CERTAINTY' IRAQ WAS DEVELOPING NUCLEAR
WEAPONS:

Yep. And 1.5 metric tons of enriched uranium has been found. Did you
forget that little piece of information?
