Oh, how the idiots rush to pat one another on the back. Well, I guess they have to get their moment of fame in this life before they meet their Creator and realize just how stupid they were.
Either Obama didn’t know, didn’t care whether he was right or not, or just went with the moment and lied.
Not good, any way you slice it.
but not a surprise.
IIRC, Rockefeller was the one, and the ONLY one at that time, that claimed Iraq was an “imminent threat”
Statement of Senator John D. Rockefeller IV on the Senate Floor On the Iraq Resolution
October 10, 2002
There is unmistakable evidence that Saddam Hussein is working aggressively to develop nuclear weapons and will likely have nuclear weapons within the next five years. And that may happen sooner if he can obtain access to enriched uranium from foreign sources -- something that is not that difficult in the current world. We also should remember we have always underestimated the progress Saddam has made in development of weapons of mass destruction.

But this isnt just a future threat. Saddams existing biological and chemical weapons capabilities pose a very real threat to America, now. Saddam has used chemical weapons before, both against Iraqs enemies and against his own people. He is working to develop delivery systems like missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles that could bring these deadly weapons against U.S. forces and U.S. facilities in the Middle East.

There has been some debate over how "imminent" a threat Iraq poses. I do believe that Iraq poses an imminent threat, but I also believe that after September 11, that question is increasingly outdated. It is in the nature of these weapons, and the way they are targeted against civilian populations, that documented capability and demonstrated intent may be the only warning we get. To insist on further evidence could put some of our fellow Americans at risk. Can we afford to take that chance? We cannot!
Ruh roh!
Obama-lama-ding-dong *PING* !!!!
You know how you listen to the ‘sound’ of a lot of rock music without really being able to understand the lyrics?
That’s the mob’s reaction to Obama’s speeches. It’s “all sound and fury, signifying nothing.”
We need video on this. Anyone?

Brilliant? There can be only one—Hillary!08
