Mind you, this report comes out of the Senate Intelligence committee which has a right-wing pro-Bush Republican running it. The man never lets the committee do anything that even vaguely undercuts the president, yet his own report now shows that Bush and Cheney repeatedly lied to the American people when they stated, and continue to state up until very recently, that Saddam had ties to Al Qaeda.
There's no evidence Saddam Hussein had ties with al-Qaida, according to a Senate report on prewar intelligence that Democrats say undercuts President Bush's justification for invading Iraq.
Bush administration officials have insisted on a link between the Iraqi regime and terror leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi. Intelligence agencies, however, concluded there was none.
