By the way. Did you know that the book of Job is Howard Dean's favorite New Testament book?

I can't wait until all the hidden cache's in Syria start to leak, become unstable, and poison them en masse.

Unfortunately, this too will be played down as ancient weapons forgotten by Iraq. It will not rise to the level needed to convince anyone that we should have gone into Iraq.

The only thing that would convince people is if we uncovered a timed nuke in Abdull Francois Hussein's (Saddam's yet unknown son by a French prostitute) vacant apartment in Vermont, set to go off on Howard Dean's birthday.

Even then, it would be played off as a Zionist plot to discredit Muslims.

...it's lonely being Right.

I can already hear the excuses from the left....

"Well, 36 of them isn't exactly an arsenal"

If we found 10,000 of them the left would say........

"Well, they weren't capable of hitting us"

If we found Nuclear tipped ICBM's the left would say.....

"Well, they weren't aimed at us"

For real, I thought Dean's favorite part of the NT was when Moses built an arc with Harrison Ford.

I am not smart enough to do that, I would if I could, but just don't know how. Some good reading in it. If you can't find it on your own we will just gas you anyway.

French farmers are still unearthing mustard shells that are at full strength from WWI. That stuff is messy real messy.

Glad this got picked up by a Tucson paper (the conservative of th two) the other Tucson paper is derisively and mostly deservedly as the Arizona Red Star.

Remember, these were the damaged ones. I've got a couple of busted wrenches in the garage and who knows how many good ones!

Whether they trun over anything or not we should wipe out their leadership, military and all their palaces while we're there, then leave ASAP (no nation building).

Inform the replacement dictato(s) if that if they a single hand on one Jew or American they suffer the same fate.

Damaged or not, if they have blister agent in them, they could make a nasty IED that could be real ugly for a passing convoy or a crowded market, just by using other munitions to blow them up. I'm glad they found them before someone else did.
