Allright, that's it, I've had it!
Tomorrow I'm flying over to Iraq with whatever WMDs I can dig up around here and I'll toss them down and old well and point the boys in the right direction.
Let's see, I can spare a few cans of Sarin, a half a bottle of Anthrax (don't ask), and a few pictures of Maureen Down (REALLY don't ask). That should be enough for starters.
Anybody else spare some WMDs?

Good stuff from Steyn.
To: Pokey78
But on this issue he was right, and there's nothing to be gained for British Conservatism in subscribing to theories of deliberate deceit that in America are exclusively the province of paranoid cranks.Some of those paranoid cranks have chimed in on Free Republic.

Sir Max, the liberator of Port Stanley, has somehow morphed for this war into Belgrano bore Tam Dalyell: his thesis is that Blair and his American masters lied to the world about Saddam's arsenal in order to justify an invasion that would prove no such arsenal existed and that they were a bunch of liars.An excellent point, which only further underscores how ridiculous this entire whacky left tin-foil mad hat conspiracy theory is.

You know, this is one of those Steyn columns where I highlight a great sentence to comment on it, and then along comes a better one, and then a better...BTT.
And yeah, Travis...that one took this out of the "funny" category.

One minute Steyn's writing makes me laugh, the next I am crying ... but ALWAYS, Steyn makes me think, and I like that.

I'm pretty disgusted with Ian Duncan Smith. I thought the reason he was't considered "charismatic" was the reason the Torys had not won. Actually, it's because the guy is an immoral boob. He KNOWS there were WMDs, and for him to jump on the bandwagon bashing Blair for political purposes, is just disgraceful. A man without principles is a man without principles whether he's charismatic or not.

Hot diggity dog! I really love the way Mark Steyn expresses himself via the written word!

"It would obviously be easier to wait and pick the evidence of WMD out of the rubble of Birmingham"Yes. Or Chicago, Los Angeles, or Washington.
The invasion of Iraq was obviously wise and in the best interest of Britain and America and their allies. Those who criticize Bush and Blair know this (unless they are stupid).
Once again, Mark hits it out of the ballpark.

Mark Steyn is now my journalistic hero! (OK, I admit that he already was, but this is one of his best ever.)

his thesis is that Blair and his American masters lied to the world about Saddam's arsenal in order to justify an invasion that would prove no such arsenal existed and that they were a bunch of liars. He makes me so jealous sometimes - how does he come up with lines like this? So simple, so succinct, so good.

That's what counts: capability, not inventory. It would obviously be easier to wait and pick the evidence of WMD out of the rubble of Birmingham, but for the Americans it is capability that's the determining criterion. Great line!

To: Pokey78
Man, this article is just chocked full of one-liners, each of which could carry a whole article by itself. How does he come up with this stuff at this frequency? This is a masterpiece of satire and hyperbole.

Some of those besmirching British victory in a noble cause should be ashamed of themselves
How true, but the BBC knows no shame.
