Saddam Did It!

The internalization of the concept that Saddam had something to do with 9/11 is one of the astounding pieces of evidence of A) a foolish, underinformed American public and B) an overzealous political elite who keep forcing this idea upon us. Now, the reasons for B are clear: if they didn't at least work to convince us mindless gnomes in the bottom eschalons that Saddam took drastic action on 9/11, then they couldn't traipsie around the world with reckless abandon as they have been. What is surprising is how easily the public has fallen into this trap.

Look, everybody, Saddam Didn't Do It.

Yes, Elected Officials, such as Rep. Robin Hayes (R-NC): This means you. Pay attention:

"Saddam Hussein and people like him were very much involved in 9/11," Rep. Robin Hayes said.

Told no investigation had ever found evidence to link Saddam and 9/11, Hayes responded, "I'm sorry, but you must have looked in the wrong places."

Hayes, the vice chairman of the House subcommittee on terrorism, said legislators have access to evidence others do not.

Sen. John McCain, R-Arizona, said that Saddam was a dangerous man, but when asked about Hayes' statement, would not link the deposed Iraqi ruler to the terrorist attacks on New York, the Pentagon and Pennsylvania.

"I haven't seen compelling evidence of that," McCain, a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, told CNN.

I would advise you elected officials from checking FreeRepublic.com on your way out of the office to your press conferences. They tend to report on tenuous... ahemBULLSHIT... excuse me... often misleading news stories that tend to be proven completely inaccurate.

So... why do we still think that Saddam and 9/11 are members of the same structures of anti-American terrorist hate?

And how many times do you have to repeat a lie before it becomes the truth...?
