The New York Times...details U.S. forces in Iraq finding thousands of chemical weapons during the Iraq war. "From 2004 to 2011...troops repeatedly encountered, and on at least six occasions were wounded by, chemical weapons remaining from years earlier in Saddam Hussein’s rule," "In all, American troops secretly reported finding roughly 5,000 chemical warheads

As always Snipe you’re a voice of reason around here.

Well, of course. I remember how every report of finding chemical weapons in Iraq during the invasion was quickly dismissed by the media for some flimsy reason or another, all so that they could repeat their mantra that Iraq had no WMD. But now that they’ve done incalculable damage to President Bush and the country, it’s okay to tell the truth.

Expect them to go back into full lie mode once another Republican president is in office.

The only reason that makes sense to me is there was a desire for a transition of power to the democrats.

Or Bush like many others had things on him that the evil Demoncrats held over his head. I think they have access to much info and blackmail people on a regular basis. I hope that someone has the guts to expose them even if it means the info they have against them is also exposed. I wish someone would have the guts to fall on his own sword for the sake of our Country. It is possible that if they did they then know that their family members will die. The major problem about the demoncrats is that few understand the depth of their depravity or what their modus operandi actually is.

They never pushed back because to do so would have given the UN legal justification to continue to hold sanctions over Iraq, even Iraq's new government, and there were enough votes in the Security Council to keep them in place at that time due to the axis of weasels - deVillipin or whatever his name was and Egypt's ... EGYPTS - el Baradei who was head inspector. There was at the time a big discussion about that very problem which would effectively kill the new government by tying its hands on trade, etc.

Note that Egypt, Pakistan, Iraq and North Korea were exposed for outsourcing and cooperating in WMD development in concert with Libya when Qadaffi got cold feet upon Saddam's capture. And note that el Baradei was the Axis of Weasel's and Soros's choice to replace Mubarak in the Arab Spring but it didn't work out when the Muslim Bro got the most power and installed Morsi instead.

It was kind of hard to discuss Iraq's nuclear program when it was for all practical purposes sitting in Libya which had decided to join the WOT, and with Egypt and Pakistan necessary to defeat Afghanistan's Taliban and al Qaeda.
