I followed the speeches and announcements of the Bush White House quite religiously cause I was a fan of Bush.
I don't recall Bush ever claiming that Saddam was responsible for 9/11. Bush said that he saw Iraq as a future threat (which I agree wtih.) The biased MSM then turned around and attributed the events of 9/11 with Iraq. They started to attribute to Bush that he said Iraq was responsible for 9/11. The way I see it, the MSM lied to the American people (big surprise there, ha?), not Bush.

I don't think so. At least one 9/11 debunking site has protested as to why so many conspiracy theorists ignore the most obvious conspiracy at the center: there is no evidence that Iraq had anything to do with 9/11 and the whole war was based on lies. That was not a conspiracy, which is defined as a surreptitious organized movement. That was a political lie. Many people, including me, knew perfectly well during the run-up to the war that Iraq had nothing to do with it. Yes, the Bush administration did deceive the public about this. This deception was practiced openly, not in a conspiratorial manner. The actual facts of the matter were never hidden. Many major newspapers reported that Iraq was unconnected. Even administration figures, when pressed, would back off from making these allegations for a while. Then, when the coast was clear, they would go right back to making them again. Deception is not the same thing as conspiracy. There are many similar political lies. For example, politicians have sometimes claimed that crime is rising when in fact it is falling (or vice versa). - Jed
