But we knew that already since we had supplied them with a bunch of biological weapons when they were fighting Iran.This proves the point that real Americans are making - You say we gave them bio weapons and then you say they don't have them. Which is it?

For one thing, I don't appreciate the implication that I'm not a "real American" for questioning this. If you wish to discuss this with me, please leave out the ad hominem. When our government tells us that WMDs "are what this war is about" and later says they may not have any, I think "real Americans" should wonder about exactly what is going on. As for your question, it could be both. We weren't just claiming that that Iraq once had a WMD program, we claimed that they had (I think) around 30,000 tons of them at the time we attacked them. The weapons (or weapon precursors) we supplied them was over 12 years ago. That isn't evidence of current WMDs, that's evidence of past WMDs. I don't think it's unreasonable to have the US and UK substantiate the claims they made prior to the war, those same claims that we used as a justification to go to war.
