All the News that's Fit to bend and reinterpret

Today, The NY Times printed an Op-Ed titled: Decoding Mr. Bush's Denials.

Apparently, the NYTimes believes that history shows evidence leading up to removing Saddam Hussein from power went a particular way. The NYTimes is treading on old (false) interpretations of news and continuing to bend and twist it to create an unfavorable view of President Bush.
Why?
I guess they do not wish he wins re-election.

The firestorm attacks on the President continue with the chant that BUSH LIED!
Unfortunately, it is the liberal media, also known as MSM (Main Stream Media) that continues to lie and live in a world of make believe.

Immediately after the Op-Ed from the NYTimes, the White House puts out a press release specifically rebutting the NY Times Op-Ed piece.

Setting the Record Straight: The New York Times Editorial on Pre-War Intelligence.

It states many clear facts on pre-war intelligence.

Foreign Governments That Opposed The Removal Of Saddam Hussein Judged That Iraq Had Weapons Of Mass Destruction (WMD).

The Presidential Daily Brief (PDB) Was Judged Not To Have Different Intelligence Than The National Intelligence Estimate (NIE) Provided To Congress, Which Represented The Collective Opinion Of The Intelligence Community.

Former President Bill Clinton Warned After 9/11 That The United States Could Not Allow Saddam Hussein To Continue Defying Weapons Inspectors.

The Weapons Inspectors Concluded That Saddam Hussein Sought A Nuclear Capability.

The President Never Connected Iraq To The 9/11 Attacks While Other Politicians And Independent Commissions Judged That There Were Contacts Between Iraq, Al-Qaeda And Other Terrorist Groups.

Congressional And Independent Committees Have Repeatedly Found No Political Pressure To Change Intelligence.

Each point is supported with referals.

If you read the NY Times, it's time for you to give the paper a pass. If you want to keep getting it for weekends, fine, but during the work week, Monday through Friday, you should switch to the broadsheet that doesn't have a table of contents for their daily Corrections (Some days, it's really large). That paper is the NY Sun.
