This is the smoking gun.

An intelligence consultant who was present at two White House briefings where the uranium report was discussed confirmed that the President was told the intelligence was questionable and that his national security advisors urged him not to include the claim in his State of the Union address.

"The report had already been discredited," said Terrance J. Wilkinson, a CIA advisor present at two White House briefings. "This point was clearly made when the President was in the room during at least two of the briefings."

Bush's response was anger, Wilkinson said.

"He said that if the current operatives working for the CIA couldn't prove the story was true, then the agency had better find some who could," Wilkinson said. "He said he knew the story was true and so would the world after American troops secured the country."

To date, American troops have found no proof of the existence of nuclear weapons in Iraq.

3. Locking
This is a dupe of this article. Please continue here: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=102&topic_id=2966&mesg_id=2966&page=

LBN rules clearly state that the subject title of the thread must be the exact same as it appears on the article or link you're quoting.

In this instance, the correct subject title should have been:

White House admits Bush wrong about Iraqi nukes

---

In the future, please take the time to look through the first few pages of LBN before making a post so that way you won't make a dupe post.

The LBN rules can be found at the top of the first page of LBN.

thanks

4. A friend of mine says
Bush is a "dry drunk". By that is meant that he is still exhibiting addictive behavior, to the detriment of us all.
