My Way News: "Wilson denounced the Bush administration for claiming that Iraq, under Saddam Hussein, had tried to obtain uranium from the African nation of Niger. Wilson went to Niger for the CIA to investigate and he found the allegation, which Bush mentioned in a State of the Union address, to be highly unlikely."

Once again, the record must be set straight for reporters who don't check facts. Bush did not claim that Saddam tried to obtain uranium from Niger.

Here is the quote from the state of the union address in 2003.

The British government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa.

Africa, Niger, whatever.
