Continuing the Lie

We see the MSM continuing the lie. Below we see the lie that President Bush claimed "Niger had sold uranium to Iraq" --

Libby Says Leaks Authorized, Papers Show - Yahoo! News
Wilson's revelations cast doubt on President Bush's claim in his 2003 State of the Union address that Niger had sold uranium to Iraq to develop a nuclear weapon as one of the administration's key justifications for going to war in Iraq.
Well let's look at the 2003 State of the Union and we find these words:
The British government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa.
Please show me where "Niger" was mentioned or where a claim of a "purchase or selling" was made... It wasn't! That doesn't stop AP writer Toni Locy from claiming it, guess Toni has changed career paths -- now a fiction writer instead of a reporter. (Hat tip: Transterrestrial Musings)
