"No one was arguing that Saddam Hussein somehow had something to do with 9/11."—Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, asserting in an interview with Charlie Rose yesterday that "no one" in the Bush administration believed that former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein had connections to the terrorist attacks of 9/11.
Wow.
For those who may have forgotten (and I envy your talent for it), members of the administration, including most notably former Vice President Dick Cheney, continued to contend that Hussein was connected to the perpetrators of 9/11, Al-Qaeda, for literally years after the alleged connection had been thoroughly debunked.
