It seems that Chris Matthews [1] last night on Hardball was trying to get Republican Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney [2] to ‘admit’ that the President brainwashed us all as to the threat from Iraq.
I believe it’s Chris Matthews who’s been brainwashed, because apparently he hasn’t seen this poll roundup [3] (via the Washington Post [4]) taken over the course of two years where the American people by and large – and way BEFORE the President started talking about going into Iraq – believed Saddam Hussein had something to do with 9-11 … and the numbers actually went *down* over the course of two years by a few points. And as far as WMD goes, well, we’ve already clearly established [5] that it wasn’t just this President and this Congress who believed that Saddam Hussein was a WMD threat to the international community.
Chris Matthews should retitle his show “Welcome to the Spin Zone”, methinks.
