Santorum said there were MORE WMD's.

You know who I'm mad at?

President Bush himself.

He let us conservatives carry this water, he appears to take the position to allow history, our American history that my granddaughter will learn, to be a LIE! He gave the liberals and the rest of the America-hating world talking points that were not true.

I'm very bitter.

Hold your horses! These weapons may have already been accounted for and deemed to be degraded.

At this point, it's best to not jump the gun.

Don't be bitter, consider the following: (courtesy of a poster at Lucianne.com)

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.

Bush has been sly like a fox.

Now the media will be forced to follow this story to understand why the discovery of these WMDs were not reported. The fact that they were there will never be questioned anymore. Their existence will have to be covered and the hiding of their existence will be the bait. Smart move.

This stuff is timed well IMHO. It is going to demoralize the anti-war Dems, and they are not going to show up to vote in November.

I mean look at the polls. Rasmussen now puts Bush at 42%, and it is going to keep climbing, and we may just end up seeing him well 55%+ (If he pushes secure borders / no amnesty) by November.
