This whole idea that we were supposed to wait until Saddam was in a position to immediately attack us with biological, nuclear and chemical weapons before we did anything to stop him is mind boggling.

I guess some believe that we should have allowed Saddam a fair chance or something.

Unbelievable.

active strains, actually would've — were still active when we found them — Botulinum toxin, one of the most toxic elements known.

Of course we can all make this at home if we know something about canning David, but you build it up okay. Since you've had no luck finding 29,984 munitions or all those other tons and liters of WMDs Bush talked about, may as well base your entire argument on something anyone that cans could accidently make...and a whole vial at that!! Simply bone chilling....

Can you name a left wing/communist/Islamonazi dictator/tryant that the rats of America haven't loved?

I will be 65 next month, and I can't thing of one that they haven't loved from Mao to Castro to $oddomite.

This is an excellent summary of the suicidal wet dream of the left wing in America and around the world.

This whole idea that we were supposed to wait until Saddam was in a position to immediately attack us with biological, nuclear and chemical weapons before we did anything to stop him is mind boggling.

The Democrats are not deep thinkers.

This is an example where we need to take on some activism. This is, after all, what FR is all about (grass roots efforts). If the lefties and their willing cohorts in the media have it there way, Mr. Kay's comments will never (EVER) see the light of day.

I am going to create a simple, easy-to-read HTML file that anyone can attached to an email. Attach it to an email and send it to everyone you know.

Please FRMail me and let me know if you want a copy.

Okay, we'll put you down as not minding being the target of a botulinum toxin attack since it's such a minor biological weapon.

Nope, can't think of a single one.

After I read your reply re Castro to add to $oddomite, I tried to think of a single mass murdering left wing dictator who wasn't loved and adored by the lefties.

I could not think of a single one.

I thought the anthrax strain in the mailings was the Ames variety. US grown.

In Laurie Mylroie's book Bush Against The Beltway she shows how the Ames strain got to a British firm which was later purchased by an Arab. With eight years of Clinton "security" it wouldn't be that far-fetched that the same malignant neglect which allowed secrets to go to China would also allow other assets to be put in other wrong hands.

C'mon. Give the loser some credit. His CIA caught a lot of video bootleggers for his Hollywood friends! Sheesh. It was a matter of priority!

While you're at it put me down for not minding being the target of imaginary WMDs either. Since they don't exist at the level given as fact before the war I won't mind not being the target of those either

This is why liberals hate Fox - it gives parts of the story that liberals don't want the public to hear. The liberals' hatred of Fox is really a cry for censorship, and by demonizing Fox they are trying to censor it in the only way the law allows, by trying to sully its reputation.

FOX was doing a morning show in Philidelphia a few days back. I couldn't believe the stupid liberals there. They had protest signs against FOX news they were waving in the back ground.
FOX, being the adults, ignored them. Once, they did comment on them and laughed, but went on about their business anyway.
Liberals hate Constitutional rights. They stand in their way.

" . . . all those other tons and liters of WMDs Bush talked about . . . "

And Clinton talked about and Hans Blix talked about. The belief in saddam's WMD programs was widespread and not confined to the Bush administration. And from what Kay has found so far, it is clear that Saddam was ready to ramp up his weapons programs on the day after U.N. inspectors declared he was clean and went home. His intent was to wear down the will of the U.N. to monitor him, then start right up again once they gave up. That was Clinton's belief, and Bush shared it.

And the left wing here, France, and Germany wasted plenty of valuable time screwing around and allowed Saddam to hide them.
We'll find them, even if he shipped them to Syria. Once Iraqi's feel secure enough, they'll talk.
Good things come to those who wait.

Someone needs to wake up the WH.

What would you like the President to do? Hold an impromptu press conference?

Oh wait. He did that on Friday, on the way to his helicopter. Talked specifically about Kay's report.

Maybe he should address the American people?

Oh wait. He did that on Saturday, during his weekly radio address.

When are folks going to realize the message is intentionally being ignored by the media? Geez. I think Hell would freeze over if people quit blaming the GOP and started blaming the media and Democrats.
