Can the Times really be this stupid to allow us to point out the obvious? Are they that dense?
Yes
They keep saying this was Sadaam's "old" program. We are so lucky this information previously was held by a great guy like Sadaam Hussein. Then Bush had to seize it and place it in the hands of the evil Americans.
Their readers are, and that's what counts in this propaganda war. The tone of the article says "Bush screwed up" and that's what the libs will take away from this. If they need to clarify for their stupid readers, they'll explain that during the Clinton years, Sadaam's bad stuff was all shut down and contained, then Bush came along and stirred it all back up.
Facts mean nothing to the MSM or the Dems. Politics are more emotional these days than based on logic for many of the masses.
