Ummmm, there was never a connection made by the White House between 9/11 and Iraq, even if it's "common knowledge". Funny thing though, no one's been able to dredge up a single comment by Bush that supports their contention that he tried to make it.
I think you overlook "lies of the second kind" in which everything in a statement can be true yet it conveys a false concept to the observer. Why do you think there is so much contention over the apparent link between 911 and Iraq. The two were so often juxtaposed that the linkage was established in the minds of the public and in the legislature. Just look at the questioning and search of the record that is being done on this.

P.S. There is evidence by the bucketload that Saudi money and power was behind 9/11, yet the occupant of the white house believed what needed to be done was to secretly evacuate rich and powerful Saudis from our country.

I guess we should have announced to the world that we were going to fly out members of the (large, BTW) Saudi royal family??! Like it or not, they're about the closest thing we have to allies in the region, and it would have been a huge mistake to forcibly detain them - heck, the ACLU woulda gone nuts over that option! ;-)
Why do you use the term "the closest thing we have to allies"? Is it because, as others have stated, we have no allies, only paid up shills.
