The specter of the war in Iraq - a war the Bush administration denied it was planning and supported by evidence that turned out to be false - looms large over administration policy toward Iran.

At his press conference today, Bush again showed that he doesn't know or care about cause and effect.

Bush is discovering that boldly lying about Iran isn't enough. He needs his chorus of liars behind him ... and they're gone.

At his press conference this morning in ice-covered Washington, DC, President Bush was pressed by reporters on US officials' claims at a Baghdad briefing on Sunday. These unnamed officials charged that not only were weapons from Iran killing American soldiers in Iraq, they were being used on orders from top Iranian leaders.

Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice misled the US Congress when she said last week that she had not seen a 2003 Iranian proposal for talks with the United States, a former senior government official said on Wednesday.
