I just got a phonecall saying something big was about to break RE: WMD but I can't get to a TV. Anyone?
They're more rabid over there about this than we are by a long shot. I believe the documents are legit. and that this thing
... will get some legs.
The theory on FOX tonight was that because Russia, China and France were complicit in selling these weapons to Sadaam and Russia had been responsible for helping to move them out of Iraq before the war started, the US couldn't afford to bash those three "biggies" in the UN.
If two shotguns, a .22 rifle, and a cheap 9mm handgun is an "arsenal" (as the DBM usually reports), I'd say 500 artillery/mortar shells is a "stockpile"...ymmv.
LOL.
I'm laughing because you are sooooo right.
you forgot part
"Bush lied, people died, HALLIBURTON (he blew up the levees too)
I knew there was a logical explanation!!
Can I borrow your Senator for a couple of years?
I tend to wonder if Bush is releasing this info THROUGH Santorum, rather than Santorum just acting on his own. If Bush had released it himself, the MSM wanks would've said he was only doing it to improve his own poll numbers. If Santorum releases it, Bush isn't associated with it and the information still gets out.
We all knew there were WMDs in Iraq. And most of us know that a lot of what WAS there is now in Syria and possibly Iran because Bush tried to throw the Dems a bone. That's the only thing I really fault him on with regard to the war. Well, that and communication in general. Of course, his lack of communication has spurred the Dems to show just how bad for the country they really are.
I think that I would perhaps not do so well in a chess game against Mr. Bush. If this was all strategery from the get-go, I have to say he's done pretty darned well.
Iran had F-14s, not F-15s. I once worked with a guy who worked in their AIM-54 "shop". Funny thing, none of their Phoenix missiles worked after the fall of the Shah. He told me what part they were lacking, but it's been 20+ years, and I forget which one it was.
They did have F-5s, but that was an older design and their were not the most modern at the time.
It depends on whether the US President is a Republican or a Democrat."
We should check in with Karl Rove, since he's the one who put it there......
(for all you ding dongs...that is sarcasm...can't be too careful nowadays)
Heck to them, a 500 round brick of .22 rimfire, along with a rifle and handgun to fire 'em is an arsenal.
