Funny, it was first reported about three or four days ago on FR, with subsequent posting on FR, then Saturday it appeared in a small conservative local Tucson paper but not as a headline story, this morning FNC is talking all about it, but when I surfed the other news channels up until about 11:30 am MST, none of them even knew the stuff had been found.
Funny?
I Wonder it's that way?

Just like it didn't matter if there was proof that Clinton raped 50 women, there was no way they were going to turn on him.
No matter what is found in Iraq (WMD, mass graves, torture chambers), Saddam will always be the victim of Anglo aggression.

I had wondered whcih it would be, would the mainstream media ignore this (like the proof of Al Qaeda links) or would they attack it relentlessly?
Seems they picked ignore.

If these chem shells are from the attacks on the Kurds, then I will say that its not what I concider the WMD that brought us into Iraq - but this find is not insignificant either

The American Propaganda Machine (a.k.a. "The Mainstream Newsmedia") never rests. Thank God for the internet and other sources of information.

The weapons are probably old left-overs and not worth that much of a story... though there's no excuse for the RAT media to ignore the story completely.
The fact is, most people who understand the Iraq war --- which is most people here at FR and a majority of American citizens --- aren't all that hung up on the issue of WMD. We know Iraq used to have them. We know there is as yet no clear explanation of what he did with them. And we know that there are a thousand other good reasons why Iraq is now on the road to joining the modern world, with our assistance. And several hundred thousand good reasons why its good that Sadam is in custody.
WMD. We'll find them. I'm confident of that. But there's so much more to this story than WMD.

Still, despite the staggering political consequences of the bombshell discovery news that could mean total vindication for President Bush against Democrat charges that he "lied" about Iraq's WMDs mainstream reports consistently downplayed the story.F'Kerry You, Leftists! HAHAAAHAAAAAAAA!!!!

This may not be the sorcerer's stone for the Bush Administration but it is at least a draw because the RATS will have to turn it into a quantitative debate.
RATS will have to say we found some but not enough to count, problem for the RATS is that Iraq is a really big place and there will likely be more.

The Ieraqi Liberation Act was signed into law under Bill Clinton in
1998. So there should have, may have, been a plan since 1998.

Thank you for joining today to so inform us. These are, in fact, about 10 years old and they are most definitely WMD. Blister agents are chemical agents - they had them and we (and every other intelligence agency on the planet) knew perfectly well they had them because they'd used them in the past.
The question is, where are the rest? A chemical warfare program doesn't produce 200 mortar shells and then quit.
But your point is quite right - this will only result in an endless raising of the bar - this find wasn't enough, that find won't be enough, no find will be in the final event. But you know something? It will.
