Funny.

If the OLD (WWI-era gas) weapons you were shipping to our (my) incinerator in Johnston Atoll were as safe as the liberals are claiming for Saddamn's 15-year old weapons, WHY were hey being to the middle of the Pacific Ocean on a deserted island to be disposed of at 3000 degrees in isolated, hands-free automatic choppers and incinerators?

Why were YOU in chemical suits just to handle the enclosed shells if the WWI gas weapons were "not dangerous"for Saddamn to store in the middle of his cities and bury underground at his airports?

Because the stupid liberals like to downplay the dangers if it conflicts with their rhetoric. My understanding is that as long as they were stored with temps under 90 degrees then their half-life was still 40+ years.
