Hey - How is this possible?

Everybody knows there was absolutely, without question, without a shadow of a doubt, no link, (meaning zero, zilch, nada) between Iraq and Al Qaeda. Never was, isn't now, and never will be. Secularists don't mix with religious fanantics - never have, never will. Wouldn't make one bit of sense. We're all in agreement here, right? So wait a minute - how is this possible? Can someone please explain!??? I have a feeling Stephen Hayes from the National Review, knows. Check out his explanation.
