I just got a phonecall saying something big was about to break RE: WMD but I can't get to a TV. Anyone?
Agreed. We have some pretty good folks here. Talent, in my opinion, is one of the best Senators in the chamber..
Thought so. Thanks.
I thought sarin had a short shelf life? Were these weapons still dangerous?
"And I can't even think of an excuse as to why they've kept this information secret while letting themselves get pummeled."

Bush was said to have been a great poker player at Yale. He has been waiting to play his best card last on the libs. As long as the libs concentrated on thinking they had Bush on the rope about WMD, Bush was going to let them. Then when they would have had nothing left, yank the rug.
Geez, just enough to deliver one to each congress critter in time for Christmas. Wonder is Murray,Kerry and Kennedy (to name a few) will want it under the tree or on the front poach.
You have crap for a sense of humor. Keep your day job.
FWIW, I just looked at the opening of the NBC, CBS and ABC evening news shows. Plenty about the Marines accused of murder, but not one word about this.
Yes, MiG-25.
The networks should be called and emailed about this. Contact info is on all their sites.
The Administration response should be (because it is the truth):
"The reports that stockpiles of WMD were found in Iraq are correct. WMD were widely dispered in Iraq pre-invasion for use by terrorists, many of which have been found.
The terrorists, to date, apparently opted not to use the WMDs because the political damage of the 'no WMD in Iraq' was deemed more damaging to the war effort than the casualties from the use of WMD.
The administration was concerned that the public disclosure of the stockpiles would change this dynamic and encourage the terrorists to use the WMD.
The administration was willing to take the political damage from the false claims of 'no WMD in Iraq' in order to save the lives of American soldiers.
The administration would note members of Congress from both parties have been aware of the WMD stockpiles since prior to the 2004 elections.
Thank you."
So how are you so sure that the center package, with the RUSSIAN instructions and foxed paper labeling, isn't the subject sarin gas, while the test tubes to each side of the center package you are talking about were provided by the U.S. to test for the gas?
Mustard is persistent. Both are still dangerous if in the shell; Sarin is non-persistant after it's released, which only means it would be probably hours or maybe days but not weeks of killing.
Is that what it was? I always thought of it as a "wolfman."
I don't know but the bottom line is Iraq didn't come clean to the US or the UN.
No. The wolfman is Judge Napolitano.
Because if they still decide to use them, the terrorists will find an unknown resolve in the world against them.
I thought so. I saw him at a senior citizen housing complex touting the medicare drug program. Then I asked him a question about how much this new program was going to cast younger tax-payers like me. He told me that the program was already projected to come in underbudget. Never did answer my question. Which is not to say he's not the best senator...
I am shocked...just shocked...awwwwww....no I'm not. Dammit
