MO-SEN: GOPer Bond Links Iraq, 9/11 -- On Same Day As Intel Report Denies Link

Some GOP Senators not mired in tough races are helping struggling colleagues by advancing the GOP strategy of implying -- without actually saying -- that Sept. 11 was somehow connected to Iraq. On Friday, GOP Senator Kit Bond offered a classic of this genre, giving a speech saying that the insurgents we’re fighting in Iraq are the "same enemy" that attacked us on 9/11. Unfortunately for Bond, the GOP-controlled Senate Intelligence Committee released a report saying that the Senate Intelligence Committee’s findings that Saddam had no relationship with Al-Qaeda on the exact same day as his speech.
