"We do not torture."

That's why more than a hundred Democrats in the House and the Senate --who had access to the same intelligence -- voted to support removing Saddam Hussein from power.

Some reports regarding Iraq never made it to CongressWASHINGTON // President Bush, in defense of his decision to use force in Iraq, contends that Congress supported the decision and that it had access to the same intelligence available to the White House.
Not true.
The president and his key advisers, usually about five or six principals, receive the CIA's President's Daily Brief
(PDB) five or six times a week. It contains sensitive intelligence, including raw intelligence that is not seen anywhere else in the policy community or on Capitol Hill. The National Security Agency has very sensitive collections that often do not get into any publication other than the PDB and are distributed by hand to only one or two members of other intelligence agencies. The State Department has sensitive cables for embassies that are marked "eyes only" or "nodis," for no distribution, that are seen by only a few outside the department.
These items certainly would not be seen on the Hill. The same is true for sensitive satellite imagery.
In addition to published and raw intelligence that is not seen even by the Senate and House intelligence committees, the president and his staff can task the CIA and other intelligence agencies for sensitive analysis on key aspects of the war in Iraq.

Cheney, Libby Blocked Papers To Senate Intelligence PanelVice President Cheney and his chief of staff, I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby, overruling advice from some White House political staffers and lawyers, decided to
withhold crucial documents from the Senate Intelligence Committee in 2004 when the panel was investigating the use of pre-war intelligence that erroneously concluded Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction, according to Bush administration and congressional sources.
The Intelligence Committee at the time was trying to determine whether the CIA and other intelligence agencies provided faulty or erroneous intelligence on Iraq to President Bush and other government officials.
Both Republicans and Democrats on the committee say that their investigation was hampered by the refusal of the White House to turn over key documents , although Republicans said the documents were not as central to the investigation.
In addition to withholding drafts of Powell's speech -- which included passages written by Libby --
the administration also refused to turn over to the committee contents of the president's morning intelligence briefings on Iraq , sources say. These documents, known as the Presidential Daily Brief, or PDB, are a written summary of intelligence information and analysis provided by the CIA to the president.
One congressional source said, for example, that senators wanted to review the PDBs to determine whether dissenting views from the State Department's Bureau of Intelligence and Research, the Department of Energy, and other agencies that often disagreed with the CIA on the question of Iraq's programs to develop weapons of mass destruction were being presented to the president.
An administration spokesperson said that the White House was justified in turning down the document demand from the Senate , saying that the papers reflected "deliberative discussions" among "executive branch principals" and were thus covered under longstanding precedent and executive privilege rules. Throughout the president's five years in office, the Bush administration has been consistently adamant about not turning internal documents over to Congress and other outside bodies.
That is obviously a lie, since the White House
still refuses to turn over PDBs concerning Iraq intelligence, which Congress has never seen.
Those are LIES Bucky.
