The more this material gets out, the fewer and fewer myths will continue to be propagated.

It is a tough slog but it has to be done.

A few days ago, I had to go to extreme lengths to show that Iraq had tons and tons of yellowcake at the end of the war. The Lefties just could not believe that Saddam had yellowcake when it was clear he had no WMDs whatsoever. The answer is about 500 tons of yellowcake and between 1.7 to 2.7 tons of partly enriched uranium were removed from Iraq after the war among tons of other radioactive isotopes. The vast majority of these were already under IAEA seal so the nuclear material Iraq had was already known (that we know about that is. The US military has been pretty cagy about what they have found of course.)

I've posted a theory before... that perhaps there's much more there than we've let on. With something like 10,000 munitions dumps to locate, isolate and clear, it may take years to complete them all. No sense letting the bad guys know that all they need do is beat us to them. Better to take the lumps for finding nothing, and buy some time.

Idiots always ignore the proof they are idiots.

To listen to the Dems, especially those on the Intelligence Committee (oxymoron for them), they only voted for the "war" on Iraq (actually, just a continuation of the 1991 war since Iraq was in constant violation of the cease-fire agreement) because of what "Bush said".

To make this statement as they have done proves they are either gullible or really, really stupid. Oh wait, they are both along with being cowardly liars.
