It continues...

As I’ve written twice already this week, “President” Bush said he was never informed by the intelligence community that Iran had suspended its nuclear weapons program in 2003… many people, myself included, thought that that was highly unlikely…

Turns out we were right…

From CNN;

“President Bush was told in August that Iran’s nuclear weapons program ‘may be suspended,’ the White House said Wednesday, which seemingly contradicts the account of the meeting given by Bush Tuesday.”

Sensing that the cat was out of the bag, the White House issued a statement that said McConnell told Bush “the new information might cause the intelligence community to change its assessment of Iran’s covert nuclear program.”

Soooooo…. Bush knew that Iran “may have suspended” its nuclear weapons program and, because of that, the intelligence community was “changing its assessment” or Iran… but that didn’t stop Bush from spouting his war-drum chants of “World War III” or of “nuclear holocaust” because nobody told him specifically to stop…

Since when does a President need to be told to stop something???
