He did have evidence that Saddam had WMDs, as did other nations (including France, which loudly opposed the war). Prosecutors have evidence that innocent people committed crimes. I'm not spinning anything.
Lying involves an intent to deceive. Does anyone honestly think that Bush knew that Saddam didn't have WMDs, but told the public otherwise? "Beefing up" evidence leading to a conclusion that you think is accurate is not the same thing as making things up to prove a point that you know is false.
