Denial

Q: What do you call someone who presents a theory as fact even when the facts show the theory to be false?

A: A neocon.

Today another factual nail was driven into the neocon's story:

WASHINGTON - There's no evidence Saddam Hussein had ties with al-Qaida, according to a Senate report on prewar intelligence that Democrats say undercuts President Bush's justification for invading Iraq.

Bush administration officials have insisted on a link between the Iraqi regime and terror leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi. Intelligence agencies, however, concluded there was none.

Still, the cheerleaders are out in force, sailing down that river in Egypt...they even needed a conference call "group hug".
