Translation: Eight years of beating up on President Bush and defending Mr. Obama goes down the drain if she's right.

The left keeps on saying there were no WMD’s in Iraq..so I have a simple question for leftists..where did Assad get those same weapons that he has been using on his own people..did they come out of his butt?

It’s not a great comment to make on the campaign trail, even though she couched it well. Though, there is some element of truth to this. Wasn’t there a well-evidenced theory about them being moved? I think Niger was involved, or maybe Assad. Also, if WMDs include chemo-weapons we know he had those at one point.

Ernst seems like a good candidate and she’d be a vast improvement upon the gargoyle she’s trying to replace. Let’s hope she beats Braley

(P.S - to the Karl Rove shills on their way, don’t bother making fools out of yourselves again)

Where do these shepherdless sheep think Assad’s WMD’s came from? Sheesh.

Of course they did. Just ignore all the plane flights and truck convoys moving from Iraq to Syria before the invasion. They were delivering aspirin, yeah that's the ticket.

Bush Cheney and Rove all said they were wrong, and despite the plain facts they said there were no WMDs in Iraq. Anyone who cares to try to explain this historic fiasco is welcome to try. We all saw the pictures of the Russian truck convoys heading toward Syria and the artillery shells we found.

The Russians came in to move the weapons into Syria before the war.

MoJo knows this, as do most hard-core totalitarian American communists.

Maybe because there were WMD’s in Iraq. Get over it lefties, you are retarded and liars.

Of course there were. What’d they gas the Kurds with? Nitrous oxide?

I agree with her. I believe they were taken to Syria. I remember there being news or information of large convoys going out of Iraq in the middle of the night for quite some time prior to the war.

That's what I have thought up to and including now. I don't know why Bush et al capitulated.

To a person out of (now) 72 comments, they were denigrating and snickering at her on the Quad City Times.

Ernst: I have reason to believe Iraq had WMD

As did England, Germany, France, etc. They were there. We found stuff that W decided just not to inform the public of. Probabaly a smart move. Don’t let our enemies know what we know.

What did get in the press was uranium (enriched I don’t know), Sarin going to Syria and used in an failed attack in Lebanon, lots of mobile labs and processing centers, other places gutted. Basically the report that coward Colin Powell showed at the UN and now whines about.

But the reality and bottom line was Iraq had continued to violate the cease-fire agreement and after 9/11 it was time to quit being a pussy about it like Clinton.

I’m getting more than fed up with bystanders whining that some candidate shouldn’t have a logical and intelligent debate because the morons have bought the lies. Those folks carry white flags.

With leftists yesterday is what they say it is, and tomorrow will be wonderful.

But today they will do their damned best to make everybody suffer, equally of course, for the children of course, except the ones they demand Planned Parenthood slaughter.

Yes, the glorious left, where would we be without them.

I heard it on the radio, Israeli forces said they detected weapons being moved out. They are no dummies, I believe they were right too!

Mass destruction? Life yes, property no. Sooner it would be weapons of mass killing.

And there were lots of that stuff found there. They simply dumped it or took it out of country.

I asked my neighbor down the road, since he was one of those deniers, of how easy he thought it would be to hide one quart of liquid/something in a city.

Yo, MoJo ho-writer, did you know Iraq used WMD repeatedly against Iran in their protracted war...
... and that Iraq used WMD repeatedly against the Kurds in Iraq...
... and that WMD were found in Iraq, but only those not trucked to Syria in the 18 months between the accusation that they still had WMD and the beginning of the actual inspections???

You might actually already know all that, but what's the use of being a liberal if you can't lie, cheat, and steal, eh?
