Hey you remember that story about Saddam trying to kill Dubya's pappy?

Well that was bullshit too.

From Rawstory:

"Pentagon report finds no evidence of Saddam attempt to assassinate Bush

...

The study found that the IIS kept remarkably detailed records of virtually every operation it planned, including plots to assassinate Iraqi exiles and to supply explosives and booby-trapped suitcases to Iraqi embassies. But the Pentagon researchers found no documents that referred to a plan to kill Bush. The absence was conspicuous because researchers, aware of its potential significance, were looking for such evidence. "It was surprising," said one source familiar with the preparation of the report (who under Pentagon ground rules was not permitted to speak on the record). Given how much the Iraqis did document, "you would have thought there would have been some veiled reference to something about [the plot]."

It really is amazing on what truly flimsy grounds America finds itself bogged down in Iraq.
