Donald Rumsfeld: "If you're asking if there's a direct 
link between 9/11 and Iraq, the answer is no."
http://msnbc.msn.com/id/4865948/ 

On May 01, 2003, President Bush declared that, 
"Major combat operations in Iraq have ended."

"I'm the commander -- see, I don't need to explain -- 
I do not need to explain why I say things. That's the 
interesting thing about being the president. 
Maybe somebody needs to explain to me why they 
say something, but I don't feel like I owe anybody 
an explanation. " 
- George "Dubya" Bush
