Bush lied again? Not big news, but this particular lie is big news. Seems Mr. Bush claimed he never read the International Red Cross report on interrogation methods used in CIA detention facilities, where the committee called the American actions as "tantamount to torture". According to a new book released this week by investigative journalist Jane Mayer, Bush as well as Condoleezza Rice knew the contents of the report. They also knew that the information contained could implicate Bush officials in "war crimes".
The stream of lies that has flowed form the White House is beyond disgrace. The Bush administration MUST be held to the same standard as every other president and administration. Impeachment is the constitutional redress for such criminal actions and the US Congress should not hesitate to begin proceedings regardless of Bush's time remaining in office.
