Good observations. Having lived in both the Bible belt and in DUmmycratland, I can confirm that the "black and white" mentality is much stronger in the Left than in the Right, as much as the Left would like to deny it.

Please, somebody do the world a huge favor and put Moore into a spider hole and seal it up. Permanently. I was thinking of the Lincoln tunnel, but even that might be a tight fit.

We also liked King George at one time, but you know how that went.

I couldn't disagree more with your premise that Moore and his ilk are "harmless".

Nothing that happened today (or in the past 9 months) has made us ONE BIT safer in our post-9/11 world. Saddam was never a threat to our national security. This idiot just doesn't know when to shut up, he destroyed ANY CREDIBILITY he thought he had with those two (2) sentences.....
Too bad Michael Moore, 85% of the American people do NOT buy your lies....the other 15% are Democrats losing their grip on reality (and power).
To: Our man in washington
Didn't Kissenger say that our interests would be best served if the Iraqis and Iranis destroyed each other?
The trouble with Moore is that he thinks the world was once a nice place in which oil rained from heavan right into our fuel tanks.
To: concerned about politics
"It's not that they can't. They simply choose not to!"
You're implying that people should take responsbility for their own actions, which is 100% against the Democratic ideals of today.

Here is one of the articles I saved from Google:
"As someone who has bought things from the American Type Culture Collection, although a long time ago, and has some experience with large-scale microbiology, I take a somewhat less conspiratorial view of this news coverage.
ATCC is essentially a library of microorganisms, widely used in biological sciences. It's not a secret organization. It's perfectly reasonable for medical institutions to want samples of disease-causing organisms for legitimate research. Appropriately, there has been a lot more restrictions placed recently on obtaining organisms known, or believed, to be useful in biological warfare.
To wage biological warfare, one needs:
1. An appropriate agent
2. A means of mass culture
3. A dispersion/warhead system
4. A delivery system
Not all organisms, and in fact a minority of them, will work in biological weapons. They may be too fragile, or not have other characteristics needed to make weapons. Bacillus anthracis, the causative agent of anthrax, is one that is known to work, although a deliverable bioweapon is more complex than just dumping out a bag of bacteria. Remember these are living organisms, and the heat of a dispersing explosion, friction through spray jets, etc., can cook them.
Anthrax does occur in nature, and in fact has other names such as woolsorters' disease. Clinical laboratories may want samples for comparison. I'm not suggesting the Iraqis didn't order some of these things for non-innocent reasons, but I am suggesting that the exporters may not have had reasons to be suspicious at the time of orders.
So to say US companies shipped biological warfare materials to the Iraqis is not quite the same as what was done. An organism is a starting point only. Mass culture/fermentation equipment, unfortunately, has perfectly legitimate industrial uses as well. The dual use problem strikes here far more than in nuclear or chemical controls.
Just as miniaturizing a nuclear weapon is not a trivial task, the actual dispersion techniques from biological programs are some of the first things that clearly would be weapons technology."

But, at least he got a free dental exam todayI thought maybe they were swabbing for a DNA sample. Eh?

"He said France. I reminded him France was our best ally against Britian in one of those wars. "
I agree with your implication above: We should Attack France immediately!

Not a real good time for the left these days. A great economy, with lower unemployment expected to follow, and now we have Saddam, probably some WMD info soon to follow.

Naaa. Moore's a harmless, fat jackass of a windbag. Please tell me how this blubbery moron is a threat, and what kind of threat he is.

"Weapons of mass destruction. Yes, he has them. We gave them to him". Then he says "Bush sent us to war on a lie." Well, fat slob? Which is it?
As for us propping him up, that's the American way. I sometimes don't like it but the simple fact is sometimes we must help one evil bastard so we won't have to deal with a more evil bastard.

Awwwww c'mon. The whole liberal gig is based on guilt for doing well, anger for not doing well, or greed and not doing at all.

Good point. As if the condition of his molars is of any concern to us.
To: Mr. Buzzcut
That's what I'm here for. ;)
Another thought, we may have been looking for the old cyanide pill, too. (not?)

Nakatu is only repeating what his liberal friends are telling him. It's Moore - in this article - who states that we supplied Saddam with a whole list of toxic substances which, presumably, could be or were used in chemical and/or biological WMD.
His source is an unamed and unlinked 1994 Senate report - which I would dearly love to see.
To: Mr. Buzzcut
As someone else pointed out, that so-called dental exam was also a search for cyanide, which cowards have the habit of hiding in between their ckeeks and gums.

Great post.
I wondered why Moore didn't name or link that 1994 Senate report which he listed as the source for his claims. Perhaps you know how to access it? I'd dearly love to read it.
