David Corn, the sharp former D.C. editor of The Nation and now opining at Politics Daily, penned a great piece today on the folks denying George W. Bush lied about WMDs in Iraq.
Corn notes the failure of these true believers, like many on the right-wing of this issue, to either back up their beliefs or see the truth.
He writes:
Conservative apologists for the George W. Bush crew are swinging hard these days to defend their man -- and themselves -- from the charge that W. and his gang misled the nation into war. They must worry that they are going to end up on the wrong side of history. After all, a 2008 Gallup poll found that 53 percent of Americans believed that the Bush administration “deliberately misled the American public about whether Iraq had weapons of mass destruction.” (This was a big change from a poll taken two months after the 2003 invasion that noted that 67 percent believed Bush had played it straight.)
He then sets the record straight with a list of historic moments indicating the Bush failure to get it right, or get it true.
