uNPOSSIBLE. Back when I worked at a newspaper, one of my editors told me specifically that there were no WMDs in Iraq and that the guys I had talked to (in private life, not ‘professionally) that were there and had handled them were a bunch of liars looking for attention.

So this story doesn’t even exist.

"liars"

I have a few lib friends who stoutly refused to believe that Saddam EVER!!! had any WMDs. I told them about the murders of the Kurds by Hussein's chemical weapons, and they looked me in the face and said it was all a CIA/gov. lie.

Now some of them want to move the goalposts and say Bush lied because he said we'd find ongoing WMD systems. We found labs and other places scrubbed clean ahead of our military advance as could be predicted by the lag time between announcing the invasion and the actual invasion. Moved to Syria or destroyed.

I think many libs simply can't wrap their heads around the fact that Bush was right. Degraded or not, there were thousands of WMDs in Iraq that weren't destroyed.
