    Newly translated Iraqi documents from Saddam Hussein's regime show that President Bush was factually accurate when he told the nation in his 2003 State of the Union Address that Iraq had recently sought uranium from Africa.

    Bush's 16-word statement had formed the basis for the claim adopted by administration critics that "Bush lied" about Iraq's weapons of mass destruction programs.

    But according to the Washington Times today, an unnamed U.S. official reports that "newly translated Iraqi documents . . . tell of Saddam seeking uranium from Africa in the mid-1990s."

    The documents also speak of burying prohibited missiles, a government official familiar with the declassification process told the paper.

    In his January 2003 address, Bush told the nation:

    "The British government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa."

    The statement prompted former ambassador to Iraq, Joseph Wilson to complain to the New York Times seven months later: "I have little choice but to conclude that some of the intelligence related to Iraq's nuclear weapons program was twisted to exaggerate the Iraqi threat."

    The new documents strongly suggest, however, that Wilson was wrong - and that the "Bush lied" mantra adopted by most Democrats since Wilson first made his complaint has been based on bogus information.

    ---

    Imagine that... the democrats putting their faith in bogus information.

    Just as we have been saying for years..

    Why unnamed? This would be huge news. Why the need to make a statement of this importance off the record?

    You discounted the Zogby poll, yet you'll put faith in "unnamed" sources via NewsMax? LOL!!!

    Because most democrats say it, that's how.

    How many democrats on here have said that Bush was right about Saddam having yellowcake?

    How many democrats have said that Joe Wilson is the real liar?

    Well I for one would never say that because I know for a fact that Saddam prefers chocolate cake.

    I know for a fact that the dems would rather have Bush look bad than have us prove that Saddam was a threat with his WMD's.

    If the dems cared even 1% as much about getting Al Quida as opposed to getting Bush they might have a chance to be decent Americans.

    Let us know when the documents are released and when the source uses his or her name. Until then, I'll just file this away with all of the other "evidence" that didn't go anywhere in the past few years.

    Seems the radio has better information than your CNN you always link up.

    CNN thinks Plame was outed and the war was for oil. They think Kerry was a war hero and SAddam should be in power.

    man, you need to get ahold of yourself. First, no one is "protesting that Saddam should still be in power" -- though your radio tells you to paint it that way, so you do.

    Your HysteriaMeter is about to pop a gasket today, dude. You're guage reads SHRILL moving rapidly towards SCREECHING.

    >>If the dems cared even 1% as much about getting Al Quida as opposed to getting Bush they might have a chance to be decent Americans.<<

    Oooo. Now we're into who is a "good American" vs. a "bad American." Exactly what Al Queda and other terrorists hope for. You're dancing to their tune now.

    Fox has just ran "breaking news" Bush Admin to release 45k boxes of documents from Saddam to public from Hoekstras office.

    Boy that's a bag of mixed emotions for ya'. We may discover that SH did in fact have WMD programs in place, but we're never going to hear the end of it from Beau. :)

    Where were these documents a year ago? Why wait until now? Why wait until most of the country thinks he's a bad leader before releasing them?

    Great question. Bush is so busy trying to win the war on terror and keeping the country safe, he loses the battle of misinformation that the dems play as their only reason for existing anymore.
