Why hasn't the Downing Street Memo garnered more attention in the mainstream media? It claims that intelligence regarding WMDs in Iraq was being "fixed around" the Bush Administration's desire to go to war in Iraq. Doesn't the memo prove that Bush lied to take us to war?…

I'm shocked and amazed that you can be so ill-informed, Melissa. Bush did not say he was trying to avoid removing Saddam. Everyone agreed on that from the UN to the Congress to Bill Clinton. Bush said he was trying to avoid removing him militarily if it could be done politically. It turned out that the political solution wasn't getting anywhere, so he went with the military option. Not at all the same thing.
