It looks like Kay has come clean....mostly. this Reuter's piece has the color.

So, Bush lied. That's hardly news. What my cranium can't comprehend is this snippet in the above linked article:

Kay's conclusions come just as Bush begins his re-election year but some political analysts doubt he will suffer much politically since Saddam Hussein has been toppled and captured.

Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but did we go war to 'topple and capture' Saddam Hussein? No. We went to war because the Bush administration told us that Iraq had all these bad things.

How many thousand Iraqis dead? How many Western forces dead? In a functioning democracy Mr. Bush would certainly be frogmarched out of office, and into a courtroom.

This is a freakin' comedy.
