My email to this dingleberry:
I DEFENDED MCDERMOTT in this column when he went to Baghdad before the war and called Bush a liar on national TV. McDermott later admitted that was a mistake. Not an error of fact—it's even clearer now that Bush lied about the reasons for going to war—but a political blunder.
Bush lied? About what, that Saddam was a threat? That's obvious now. About the brutality of his regime? No, we have lots of creepy home videos from the Hussein family. Oh, it must be the WMD.
The fact that the CIA was EMASCULATED by leftists at the highest levels, starting with Sen. Frank Church's undermining of our intelligence gathering capabilities, has NOTHING to do with having to play catch-up now. It took us 8 months to find Aqualung--er, Saddam. Now you liberals expect us to just trip over chunks of Uranium and vials of sarin gas in the streets of Tikrit? Please.
They made an art of deception and concealment. What with Hans Blix and the Doofus Brigade visiting baby milk factories, driving around in the Mystery Machine looking for WMD, the Iraqi government became very adept at the art of illusion. It wouldn't surprise me if some of this stuff turned up in Iran or Syria.
In short, you liberals have nothing, NOTHING to run on except paranoia and emotions. And the resorvoir of emotion is finite. You will lose BIG in Nov., and it's your own fault. Get a clue. The majority of Americans are not socialists or communists. Once they start to actually think about politics, they invariably turn to the right.
Have a nice day.

This is great. Understand that the day will come when each leftist argument against the War on Terror will be exposed for the tissue of lies that it is. Saddam's capture brings that day ever closer. There are the leftists, in the bunker, moving phantom armies in the night. Stephen Hayes' expose of the Al Qaeda-Saddam connexion knocked one pillar from their belief system. Saddam's capture destroyed one more. Now, we will find out about the fate of the WMD. When we do, our triumph will be complete.
The Left chose the path of the Lie when they first decided to undermine George W. Bush. They forgot that Bush was an exceedingly patient man.
Be Seeing You,
Chris
