No I do not agree that the administration lied. I am not privy to the intel that was provided to them. It is my understanding that the intel select committees of the House and the Senate (who had received the same intel reports that the Admin did...prior to the invasion) are reviewing the intel to see if the intel reports were in fact reliable and back up the rhetoric that was used by the Administration prior to the invasion. If the rhetoric was based upon intel reports from the various intel agencies then the Administration would not have been lying and it would simply mean another intel failure. Anyone that has ever spent a significant time in the military know that incorrect intel is more common than correct intel.
Well, would you at least agree that Bush was an idiot for basing a war on intel that was probably incorrect?
