This appears to be the truth.

We've found wmds, we and the axis of weasels have known about the wmds--and the rest of this is just an excuse to attack what was a just and a successful war. The ones telling the "big lie" are not the President and his admin, but the weasels. Pity that some freepers are buying into it.
Yeah, and I think Thielmann was Ritters' roomate.

This appears to be the truth. "
It's the truth, yeah sure it is. I'm an unamed source and I say this is crapola.
Put a face on the source. Have them available for questioning. Let's see the 'evidence'. I won't take any NYTs article as evidence.
So the UN and Hans Blix was lying all the time. Hmmmm got to think that one over.
This is getting hilarious. We'll see won't we. But personally I need more than 2 months to search all the sand in Iraq for WMDs.
Anyone care to contemplate how easy it would be to take a gps and go out in the desert, write down the coordinates, dig a hole, stick the WMDs in the hole and bury them. How would anyone find the WMDs except those who buried them in the first place and knew the coordinates.
We'll see won't we.
Has anyone else noticed the uptick in dumpo posts in this forum? Getting a bit much. Do we have a re-direct from the undergraound? These types are doing nothing but attacking Bush's character with lies. So sad to see so many so blinded by hatred.
Correct, I never fully believed the story. The evidence was "thin" at best and the Niger forgery was well known before the first missile flew. The down side risk was considerable as we see in the rejuvenation of Al Queda.
So, yes, I was against the war before it started. Does that mean that I cannot point out the need for finding the truth now.
I will be happy to congratulate the President for being smarter than I was if he turns out correct, though I will be unhappy if they were withholding good evidence. On the other hand, I expect all true conservatives of whatever party to put aside party loyalty and stop supporting the president if the facts show that the administration intentionally lied. Do we have a deal?
Remember that the truth will eventually come out. It may take some years but history will know the answer. Just like we all know now that the main escalation of the Viet Nam war was based on a non-existent Gulf of Tonkin incident. Fifty Thousand dead Americans and probably 2 or 3 times than number of Viet Namese dead because of that story. If Johnson was alive, we should be hanging him from the highest place.
How much more operational can you get in Mr. so-called ex-official?
The war is over.
America has destroyed your Ally, Saddam in the process.
We have shaken up the entire world AND international terrorism in the process.
Regardless of this petty and unsubstantiated "charge," of "deception" the War is STILL supported by 75% of the American people.
Ergo, in 2004 Dubya will slaughter ANY RAT candidate for President.
Yes, but what relevance is that statement? The accusation was about people who have not even started to question the WMD search 2 months after we occupied Iraq. The statement was that common sense is not being used, and implied that it would be more productive to bolster the arguments made against critics rather than use ad hominem terms like "hysterical" and "ludicrous".
Hiding or moving is a reasonable argument, IMO. But the arguments of critics are not unreasonable either--better formulate some rebuttal.
Actually Bush admin officials said to give it at least a year.
