Jerry, They were walking around saying "We know Saddam has WMD"...they didnt exactly fabricate evidence, as they refused to produce it. They certainly however implied that it existed and that it was definitive and the reason for the invasion. This now appears to have not been the case; apparently US intelligence was actually saying the opposite. If that doesnt qualify as an abuse of trust I don't know what would.
