Bush and Cheney have said the same thing, "We have no credible evidence that Iraq and al Qaeda cooperated on attacks against the United States" on more than one occasion. The only reason this is being re stated is to insinuate that Bush and Cheney claimed Iraqui responsibility for 9/11, without saying it explicitly and, therefore, lying.

The fact that there was no connection between Sadam and Al Queda regarding 9/11 attacks does not in any way mean there is no connection to Al Queda or support of the organization outside the attacks.

The statement that "there is no CREDIBLE evidence that there is a connection between Sadam Hussein/Iraq and Al Queda REGARDING THE 9/11 ATTACKS" is a great example of carefully parsing words for political purposes.
