You did excellent work. This would make for a VERY effective Bush campaign television commercial.
Thanks, but I think it was a good buddy of my oldest brother -- I know it is traveling through their circles and should just be copied, pasted and sent to every mailing list FReepers have! Their words speak for themselves and sure make them out to be fools in their "current rant" and charges against W, now, don't they?
Don't forget this one that just surfaced...
"I think Iraq is the most serious and imminent threat to our country." John Edwards, CNN, February 24, 2002

I will send that little bit of gold right back to this list -- after all, we can't forget "little john", can we?
Great post, Elena!
I think Iraq is the most serious and imminent threat to our country. ~~John Edwards, CNN, 2/24/2002
Former CIA Director James Woolsey was just on CNN being interviewed. He said that the report showed that the CIA got some things right and some things wrong.
They were right on Saddam's ballistic missiles, but, wrong on the extent of his bio program.
Contrary to the media and the Dems, apparently the report is not as damning as first reported on Friday.
Woolsey said that Chapter 12 vindicates those who said there was an al Queda/ Saddam connection-while Saddam did not control al Queda, he was clearly training them.
I'm sure that aspect will be discussed on the Sunday shows.
Yeah right.
bump
I look forward to forgetting all about "little john" after November ;-)
Thanks, I thought it great to see a bunch of them in one place and returned that Edwards quote to all the originals on the e-mail (though I prefer to just think of him as little john.) How ironic, NO? We'll get the shaft from them for sure if we don't start using something besides our forum for distribution of some of the truth, IMOHO!
"When I left office, there was a substantial amount of biological and chemical material unaccounted for." -Bill Clinton on Larry King Live July, 2003
"What is at stake is how to answer the potential threat Iraq represents with the risk of proliferation of WMD. Baghdad's regime did use such weapons in the past. Today, a number of evidences may lead to think that, over the past four years, in the absence of international inspectors, this country has continued armament programs." -Jacques Chirac, October 16, 2002
"I am absolutely convinced that there are weapons...I saw evidence back in 1998 when we would see the inspectors being barred from gaining entry into a warehouse for three hours with trucks rolling up and then moving those trucks out." -Clinton's Secretary of Defense William Cohen in April of 2003
"Saddam Hussein's regime represents a grave threat to America and our allies, including our vital ally, Israel. For more than two decades, Saddam Hussein has sought weapons of mass destruction through every available means. We know that he has chemical and biological weapons. He has already used them against his neighbors and his own people, and is trying to build more. We know that he is doing everything he can to build nuclear weapons, and we know that each day he gets closer to achieving that goal." -John Edwards, Oct 10, 2002
"I share the administration's goals in dealing with Iraq and its weapons of mass destruction." -Dick Gephardt in September of 2002
"Over the years, Iraq has worked to develop nuclear, chemical and biological weapons. During 1991 - 1994, despite Iraq's denials, U.N. inspectors discovered and dismantled a large network of nuclear facilities that Iraq was using to develop nuclear weapons. Various reports indicate that Iraq is still actively pursuing nuclear weapons capability. There is no reason to think otherwise. Beyond nuclear weapons, Iraq has actively pursued biological and chemical weapons.U.N. inspectors have said that Iraq's claims about biological weapons is neither credible nor verifiable. In 1986, Iraq used chemical weapons against Iran, and later, against its own Kurdish population. While weapons inspections have been successful in the past, there have been no inspections since the end of 1998. There can be no doubt that Iraq has continued to pursue its goal of obtaining weapons of mass destruction." -Patty "Osama Mama" Murray, October 9, 2002
"Saddams existing biological and chemical weapons capabilities pose a very real threat to America, now. Saddam has used chemical weapons before, both against Iraqs enemies and against his own people. He is working to develop delivery systems like missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles that could bring these deadly weapons against U.S. forces and U.S. facilities in the Middle East." -John Rockefeller, Oct 10, 2002
Speaking about the WMD's, "The consensus was the same, from the Clinton administration to the Bush administration, It was the same intelligence belief that our allies and friends around the world shared." -Senator Hillary Clinton, April 20, 2004 on Larry King Live
