WaPo Continues With "Bush Lied" Lie

The Washington Post is trying to do its small part to perpetuate the "Bush lied" myth by claiming that Bush knowingly lied when he repeated in 2003 what the CIA and DIA told him - that mobile trailers found in Iraq were weapons labs.

ABC then took to the air this morning and repeated the allegation. White House spokesman Scott McClellan said the following:

"This is reckless reporting and for you all to go on the air this morning and make such a charge is irresponsible, and I hope that ABC would apologize for it and make a correction on the air," he said.

Apparently ABC News called the White House today to apologize - they just did it quietly enough so that they can keep all their viewers believing that Bush lied.
