HeadlineApr 14, 2006

Meanwhile, for the second straight day Thursday, White House spokesperson Scott McLellan could not tell reporters when President Bush or other administration officials were informed a Pentagon fact-finding mission had found no mobile biological weapons labs in Iraq. The timing of the fact-finding mission’s report has come under intense scrutiny.

The President and other administration officials continued to make the faulty claim for more than a year–and never once said their claim had been disputed.
