"the daughter of kerry's tits "

I think that's supposed to be "the tits of Kerry's daughter," but I like your version better.

THis story will be dead by 5 pm. - and David Kay etc. will be all over the airways dismissing it - Scott Ritter will probably be on Larry King Live....what a disaster the media is - we don't stand a chance.

Sadly, I suspect you will be proven right. Has David Kay already been on the air this morning, playing this down?

Hey peach, the artillery shells have two chemicals in differant bladders, they do not mix and make sarin gas untill the thrust of the shell going down range causes them to combine.These shell were blown in place so the mixing was not complete, just partial.

I was thinking if it is 5 years then it can't be from the Iran-Iraq war.

I've already heard the spin "They may not have known the shell contained sarin".

That is the dumbest thing I have heard, the statement about antidotes, not what you said. First I would never want to get gassed thats bad enough. 2nd if its to the point I have to use the antidote thats worse. Last the antidote itself messes you up and can leave you with health problems. Think about something like nerve agent how bad it must be to mess with the human body, so the antidote would have to be something just as strong. In fact there are antidotes for the antidotes.

Does Sarin gas sit mixed and ready to use for lengthy period of a time?

The 'shell' contains 2 elements, which while separated, are inert. When the shell explodes, the 2 elements mix and become lethal.

I would guess, in their inert stage, they would have a long shelf-life.

Well, what happens now?! The theory has always been that if anyone

uses biochems against us, then our response would be big time fierce . . .

Uh huh...right...thats what I remember too. Don't worry...our response will be as PC as possible.

yeah that was one helluva fast spin reaction to this discovery. The phone numbers and talking points from the DNC/Kerry campaign HQ must have been taped to the monitors at MSNBC, CNN, etc.

You're probably, sadly, right.

By this time I really thought that new media (Free Republic and other internet sites) would be more powerful than Old Media.

"The Tits of Kerry's Daughter"

Sounds like a porn novel written by a horny Al Franken.
