Nothing

That was Dubya's answer to the question, "What did Iraq have to do with...the attacks on the World Trade Center?"

It was one thing to read the transcript of this guy's press conference today, but to actually watch it is painful and embarrassing for America. He looks desperate and whiny and unintelligent. And this is the "war president" that we're supposed to follow into battle?

Bush says Iraq and Saddam Hussein not only had nothing to do with 9/11, but nobody in his administration ever suggested that they did, which will come as news to Dick Cheney, Condoleeza Rice, Colin Powell, Karl Rove and Bush's own speechwriters, who have been saying just the opposite for years. If what he said today is indeed true, then why did we send troops to Iraq and why have we stopped looking for Osama bin Laden?

Bush also said today that "we're not leaving (Iraq) so long as I'm the President." So he is, in fact, admitting that he can't win the war in the next 2+ years.
