Um, not to put too fine of a point on it, but don't you think that if this evidence existed that the administration would have presented it? Contrary to kookdom, it's not a conspiracy of the MSM, it's just that the WMDs didn't exist at the level we were told.
Now did the administration lie? No. They were just parroting the same line their counterparts in the other half of the one party system used in the late 90s. It's not that Bush is right because the Democrats also said it. It's that they were both wrong.
Ahhh, I'm afraid that would be putting too fine a point on it. What "level were we told" the WMD's would exist at? The braying, caterwauling, and screeching in the "Bush Lied" MSM says the WMD's didn't exist, period. And therefore "Bush Lied," yada yada. Now you raise the bar. They existed but not at the level we were told.
In his famous "16 words," the President accused Saddam of seeking "significant quantities" of uranium. It has recently come out that 500 tons of yellowcake was found inside Iraq. It's hard to conceive of a standard under which a million pounds of anything could be seen as anything other than "significant." Of course, yellowcake uranium is not a WMD, it is a precursor to a WMD. So what did the Bush Administration say that indicated we should expect to see some threshold quantity of WMD's?
