Game, you are always asking for proof that Bush lied. Those of us who keep ourselves informed have known for a couple of years that Bush's claim that "Iraq has made several attempts to buy high-strength aluminum tubes used to enrich uranium for a nuclear weapon." He said this before the UN and in his 2003 State of the Union address.

However, "Two highly classified intelligence reports delivered directly to President Bush before the Iraq war cast doubt on key public assertions made by the president, Vice President Cheney, and other administration officials as justifications for invading Iraq and toppling Saddam Hussein, according to records and knowledgeable sources."

The "report stated that the Energy Department and the State Department's Bureau of Intelligence and Research believed that the tubes were intended for conventional weapons."

So the president stated as fact something that he knew two knowledgeable government agencies doubted.

AND furthermore, Condi Rice said, "Now, if there were any doubts about the underlying intelligence to that NIE, those doubts were not communicated to the president, to the vice president, or to me."

However, records and sources show that the doubts were related personally to Bush by Tenet, AND Rice, Cheney, and dozens of other high-level Bush administration policy makers received a highly classified intelligence assessment, known as a Senior Executive Memorandum, on the aluminum tubes issue months before Rice's lie.

They lied. He lied. He stated as fact something he knew to be in doubt. She simply stated a bald-faced lie.

You can get the details here.
