January 27, 2004 -- Don't be taken in by all the hot air following David Kay's statement Friday that he didn't think any weapons of mass destruction currently exist in Iraq.

After all, Kay's last report confirmed that Iraq had WMD programs, if not weapons. And he now says some weapons may have been moved to Syria.

"Joe Wilson" being sent to gather intel on "yellowcake" looms large right about now.

The known players are "JOE", JFKerry and the NYTimes.

I keep hearing that this is Cheney's fault.

Keep hearing about forged documents, so who was the forger, and how did so many know that the documents were forged?

So many questions, looks like the "MEMO" was right, need a "TRIGGER" for an independent investigation, way above the ability for Congress to handle.

Agreed. But the Democrats will get away with another one..

Might appear that way, however, old Saddam never thought that he would find himself in a pit and the world marveling over his 'sad' end.

Everytime the lying liberals make accusations they are usually guilty of that very thing. We do live in interesting times.

FWIW, the libs I spar with, (two of them our very good friends of ours)even agree that the Dem party hasnt been the same since the Klintons took it over. One of them even said he would consider voting for W, until his wife jabbed him in the ribs, They are blue dog (or is it yellow dog?)Democrats. They could no more vote for an "R" in a presidential election, than I could a "D"..Politics sure does make strange bedfellows..

It used to be that there was a nucleus of people in the upper echelon of government that had enough principle so an investigation would get to the truth and yield a conclusion. I don't see that now. It is as if there is no penalty for perjury in a jury trial. Any story can be told and told often enough that all that can be surmised by the jury is that both parties cannot tell the truth.

Without the basis of truth, there can be no conclusion, so the jury has only one option, to disband without finding the truth. In fact, there are enough skeletons in the closet in Washington, that neither side wants the truth to come out. The security of the nation languishes because political figures are more interested in protecting their posteriors than the public interest.

Does anyone know how much the intel funding was slashed during the nineties? Not to mention the idiocy of Congresspersons (like JFingKerry) who moved us away from humint.

Oh, I see. The CIA was supposed to know Saddam did not have WMD even though Saddam himself thought he did.

I strongly suspect that those who "fooled" Saddam would get a punishment somewhat greater than just being "fired".

Riiiiiiiight, let's say YOUR a scientist working for Saddam H. Are YOU goint to screw over him?
Are YOU going to scam HIM and rip him off?
I don't think so, not after you've seen what happens to others.

As the UN always said, "Give the inspectors more TIME!"

Good point.

This article, in a nutshell, will be what Rove, W, et all will be screaming from the mountain tops. Soon! Forget about the recent polls that have Kerry, or a yet unnamed opponent beating President Bush. Our side has yet even begun to fight while they have been in the headlines for many months now. Its the equivalent of facing a batting practice pitcher (mainstream media) before having to step in against Sandy Kaufax. With the World series in the balance.

So, so sad. But true. While it has been leaning that way for years, slowly getting worse, our last president hit the "fast forward" button. That is why it was so important to have a morals first president in office now and after this next election. This may be the most important election I will come across in my lifetime. Having a dem in office for the next four years could be catastrophic. From a national security and conservative morals standpoint. For all of W's faults with spending there is no person I would rather have leading my country right now. Leaders are born, not made. It is my feeling that he will be looked upon, after all is said and done, as one of our TRUELY great leaders. God Bless President Bush and our Country

Through the years of clintonism my sister brought up her daughters to look at hillary as their hero. I cannot begin to comprehend this mind set, they live in the new age of looking out for humanity while they spew words of hate for all that is conservative.

Clintons have done more to cause a divide in this nation than any others in recent history.

Now JFKerry keeps saying "if you want to live like a Republican then vote for a democrat", talk about a twisted mind.

I was thinking about this very thing earlier. To describe their punishment for fooling Saddam, the words quick death, painless, mercifully or any words close to them could not ever be used..

Just on Fox - Brit Hume, Mort brought up the LEAKED dim MEMO in regards to how politicized the supposed bad intel was on WMD's.

That leak has really exposed the lying liberals that they don't care about what is going on just how to destroy President Bush.

Think about it....when did it become accepted as fact that
Iraq indeed possessed WMD?? If memory serves, it was right about 1998, when
BJ Clinton needed a diversion from his most famous "bimbo eruption".
Clinton & the Democrat's take on WMD's

Especially when Bill Cohen the Defense Secretary carried around a 5lb. sack of sugar on the tv circuit.

He claimed that Saddam had that amount of anthrax and what it meant. He was selling a war, and hey I believe him.
