Tonight on Comedy Central's The Colbert Report, in the space of five minutes, Paul Krugman told three lies in an attempt to explain how President Bush lied us into Iraq.

Lie 1- Krugman stated that Bush said Saddam constituted an "imminent threat". Of course, we all know what Bush really said in the State of the Union address, and other times, was that we couldnt afford to wait until Saddam became an imminent threat. It was the Democrats who changed that to fit their agenda that "Bush Lied."

Lie2- Krugman stated that Bush said that Saddam was linked to 9/11. Stephen Colbert challenged him on this, saying that Bush has said specifically that nobody in his administration linked 9/11 to Saddam. Krugman replied with some incomplete sentences about how the Bush admin created the impression even though they did not actually say it. Actually, we all know it is the Left that has created the impression that Bush linked Saddam to 9/11, and has perpetuated that lie as if its is accepted fact, just like Lie 1 and most other lies.

Lie 3- Krugman stated, in response to Colbert citing the meeting in Prague between Mohammed Atta and Saddams initelligence agents, that all the major intelligence agencies have debunked the Atta/Iraqi Intelligence meeting, and mumbled another incomplete sentence that actually we know Atta was somewhere else at the time. In reality, as we all know, Czech intelligence to this day stands behind their report of Atta in Prague meeting Iraqi agents, and that the rental car records showing Atta in the US were a diversion using his drivers license to create that impression.
