Sharpening his rhetoric as the midterm congressional campaign season accelerates, Bush offered a robust defense of his decision to invade Iraq even though, ultimately, no weapons of mass destruction were found,

Sorry, but I'm nuking a leftist right now about this BS. Here's the latest salvo:

I can't tell if this is a liberal or pro-liar viewpoint, strangely enough:

Well, they buried all of the other Iraq WMD stories. I just thought I'd remind you all.
Well, to clarify, even Fox News had to admit that the DoD stated the recent munitions found were all useless, and more specifically and most importantly NOT the WMD's we were told to go to war for. THOSE don't exist.

Well, allow me to remind you of a little historical relevance to this issue:
Rod D. Martin: UN Confirms: WMDs Smuggled Out of Iraq
In a report which might alternately be termed “stunning” or “terrifying”, United Nations weapons inspectors confirmed last week not merely that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction, but that he smuggled them out of his country, before, during and after the war.

White House Press Briefing on July 6th, 2004:
Q I wanted to follow up on Helen's question. Charles Duelfer, the head of the Iraqi weapons inspection team, recently reported the discovery of a small quantity of chemical weapons containing mustard gas and sarin. Polish forces also found weapons containing sarin. These are undoubtedly weapons of mass destruction and certainly would be seen as such if they were to be detonated, say, inside the New York subway system. So why isn't the administration saying that WMDs have been found in Iraq?

MR. McCLELLAN: Well, I think those questions may be best directed to the Iraq Survey Group and to Charles Duelfer. He has commented on those. As he pointed out in the interview recently, he said they were continuing to do their work and continuing to pursue other locations where there have been reports of weapons. And they're continuing to look into the question of what happened to the weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, because we know that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction because he had used them on his own people, as well as on a neighboring country. And so those are issues that the Iraq Survey Group continues to look at and uncover. They're working to find out the truth and determine what happened to those weapons of mass destruction.
Do you on the left really want to continue down the, "Saddam had no WMDs," path?
If so, please, knock yourselves out.
And keep losing elections.

There is a strategy being played out here that I don't think anyone knows about. It might go something like this:

Iraqi WMDs are the cheese and terrorists are the rats.


I have a fun hobby. Can you tell?

I seem to recall the Polish forces discovering lots of anti-tank missiles with dates and french stencilling on them. I think the photos were also removed from further press releases to not embarrass france. Am I correct?

McClellan was worthless.

Whatever happened to that little scientist who had the nuke components buried in his garden? He said Saddam had the stuff buried all over the country, waiting for the sanctions to be lifted. NO ONE ever remembers or mentions him.

The Dims remind me of Captain Queeg: "Ahh, but the WMD that's... that's where I had them!" LOL!
