Dr. Joseph Goebbels, the notorious Nazi propaganda minister, once said if you repeat a lie often enough, the people will come to believe it.
One of the biggest lies perpetuated by the DemocRATS in recent years is that "Bush lied, people died" with respects to Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein's WMD programs.
I am currently reading "Shadow Warriors: The Untold Story of Traitors, Saboteurs, and the Party of Surrender" by Kenneth R. Timmerman.
On page 119, Timmerman writes the following:
"In his interim report to a joint session of the House and Senate intelligence committees on October 2, 2003, David Kay emphasized the breathtaking scope of Saddam's weapons programs. The entire country had been a gigantic weapons plant, he said. There were over a hundred major facilities engaged in various phases of the WMD effort, and hundreds more depots where weapons once had been stored. Sophisticated concealment efforts by the Iraqi Intelligence Service (IIS) had succeeded in keeping the most sensitive aspects of Saddam's WMD programs from international inspectors over the years."
Timmerman then goes on to list the findings of the Kay Report in specific detail.
But to this day, the majority of the American people have been sold on the DemocRAT crock of crap that there was a "failure" in our intelligence reports and the liberation of Iraq was a big mistake, or worse, deliberate lies from the Bush administration.
Now we know who was telling the real lies. But it's too late. The political damage to the GOP accomplished in the 2006 and 2008 elections has succeeded in placing the radical left in charge of the executive and legislative branches of the federal government. Anyone who followed BHO's policy pronouncements during the campaign knows full well what he plans on doing to our military.
Genius. Of course that is what happened.
And Bush must have known that he would be looked on as a dunce and a murderer, to take it all onto his shoulders, in order to protect the American troops in harm’s way, as well as any targeted place in our or the other western countries that Al Qaida would have chosen.
This makes perfect sense. I may not agree with Bush on everything, but that was some serious courage. Not too many other Presidents would have had the b*lls.
The guy who did supply Saddam with the pecursors for Saddam’s WMD used against the Kurds and Iran was prosecuted back in 2005. And yes, he bought some of those precursors from the USA, but that in no way was the USA giving Saddam WMDs as many here at FR think as do most liberals swear to.
“Man who supplied Saddam’s chemicals guilty of war crime”
December 24, 2005
“A DUTCH businessman was found guilty of war crimes and sentenced to 15 years in prison yesterday for helping Saddam Hussein to acquire the chemical weapons that he used to kill thousands of Kurdish civilians in the Iran-Iraq war.
The ruling by a court in The Hague — which could have an impact on the trial of the former Iraqi dictator in Baghdad — also said that genocide had been perpetrated against Kurds in Iraq after Saddam accused them of collaborating with Iran. “

Right from the get go, we gave Saddam plenty of warning that we were coming, so he had at least 30 days to move his WMD’s and/or equipment and labs for developing WMD out of Iraq. I am certain a lot of stuff went to Syria.
I think no matter what proof exists about Saddam’s WMD (remember the Sarin gas he used on Iranians, then on Kurds?, liberals will still cry there were no WMD’s. Of course, if Barack Obama says there were WMD’s, then the liberals would believe him, as he is their Messiah and his word stands.
“... the media would have crucified GW for not protecting this country......”
He is is getting cruicified and will do so until the Son of God returns.
Unfortunately, I am afraid you’re right.
I only have one main issue w/ GWB- why won’t he pardon Border Agents Compean and Ramos? Is it because he is very close to his appointed US Attorney, Johnny Sutton? That is my only ‘beef’ w/ Bush. Other than that, he’s done a good job with what what handed to him when he became Pres. We’ve had no more terror strikes on US soil since 9/11. I fear what happens while BHO is in office. Caviar parties with his radical associates and/or the Taliban?
Sure describes the democratic party and main stream media's philosophy in recent history.

Thanks. Good stuff.
