ROCKEFELLER: I do believe that Iraq poses an imminent threat, but I also believe that after September 11th that question is increasingly outdated.
It appears to me that Rockefeller was saying that, apart from Iraq being an imminent threat, the September 11th attack made it imperative to get rid of Hussein.
Remember when the dems kept saying that Bush said Iraq was an imminent threat ..??
Bush NEVER SAID THAT .. what Bush said was, "we can't wait until the threat becomes imminent". I remember sending email after email screaming my lungs out that Bush never said that.
Tony Snow skewered Rockefeller with his own statement: "I do believe that Iraq poses an imminent threat ...". Telling Rockefeller - it was you who said that - not the president. After that, the dems stopped saying it.
We need some more of that!
