David Kay Stands Down as U.S. Special Advisor on Iraq WMD. More to follow...

[RandallFlagg]

I have a feeling that we already have enough evidence to convince a guy like this and how better to make it more credible in the eyes of the world than to have a skeptic admit that the evidence was solid.

I thought I just said that..

Must be the FRecho..

[ex-snook]

I don't have a lick of sympathy for a guy who spent a billion taxpayer dollars on a snipe hunt."

"Intelligence dupes, Their What's for Dinner". Hey a lot of people ate yellow cake in the story based on forged intelligence. I wonder if we will ever find out who prepared the recipe and baked the cake? Bush knew that Clinton was conned with the aspirin factory 'intelligence' but still ate the cake story.

[Mo1]

Well, we have found the recipes, most of the ingredients, the bowl, the mixer and the oven ... the only thing we need to still find is the batter itself

And they will find it

[JohnGalt]

As much as the Bush Team wants this story to just go away, the "true believers" won't let him.

[VRWC_minion]

Here's an angle. What if he did find evidence but the gov't is suppressing it and he doesn't want to take part in that ?

[BagCamAddict]

Then he would probably end up committing "suicide" at some point, to keep him quiet.

[nuffsenuff]

Sorry dude...

I went to the last post (Mol's) and it was what I was thinking.

Didn't mean to steal your thunder.

[RandallFlagg]

Oh, well. Great minds alike, and all that..

[johnb838]

Forced out by Dick Cheney's Flying Monkeys...

[nuffsenuff]

True.

[familyofman]

David Kay moving from WMD hunt to Snipe Hunting School instructor emeritus.

[Belial]

Well, we have found the recipes, most of the ingredients, the bowl, the mixer and the oven ... the only thing we need to still find is the batter itself

I bet you believed in Santa Claus well into your teens, too.

[johnb838]

Two Questions:

1) How many spider holes in Iraq?

2) How many jugs of nasty, nasty poison would fit in a given spider hole?

3) Why did Iraq need so much "pesticide"?

"Karl Rove could be one of the best political strategists I've ever seen work."

Well, maybe. But Tenet made the appointment, not Rove. And Tenet is a Clinton appointee.

It was time for Tenet to go a long time ago. Like, 9/12/01. I just don't trust having a Clintonite in that position. And while I'm at it: same goes for Mineta.

[nuffsenuff]

This is true but I think Tenet's on a short leash.

He's screwed up so bad that he's just passing down the orders from Bush. He's being used for increased credibility purposes now.

Ex-U.S. Arms Hunter Kay Says No Stockpiles in Iraq

Have you seen this?

[cyncooper]

Hey a lot of people ate yellow cake in the story based on forged intelligence.

You're wrong. The story was not based on forged intelligence.

Or forged documents either.

Disinformation is not appreciated here.

The British have stated flatly that their information has nothing to do with forgeries.

[PhiKapMom]

Kay has been planning to return to his previous job for sometime. Heard about this before the first of the year.

[PhiKapMom]

Think is a great hire since the guy is skeptical but he knows about the WMDs from previous times. My guess is that they want to find evidence of where they went. People forget that these WMD's are like finding a needle in a haystack they are that small.

Because of the UN going back in Iraq, the scientist had plenty of time to get the WMD's to another Country or bury so they wouldn't be easily found.
