But riddle me this, Batman: What about our own anti-war Right who swore up and down that Saddam didn't have WMD?

But now the bar has been raised by the liberal United Nation-alist (democrats). One or two are not WMDs The fact remain, if one or two were found there are many more. Who would only manufacture just one or two. To me even one is a WMD as is a single nuclear bomb.
Let me give it a shot. A small portion were Rinos, others thought nations like Saudi Arabia and Pakistan were more deserving, and others were hedging the party by proxy .....basically saying that Iraq had no WMDs in a convoluted bid to imply that there were 'other reasons' for going there. In essence diluting the liberal argument by picking it up (sounds weird, but there is a twisted logic to it).
At least that is what I think their rationale was.
Corrction, there were two shells, the second had mustard gas.
If one exist, two exist. If two exist ther are many more. Who would just make one or two, or destroy all but one or two. It is a smoking gun, but liberals cannot accept the fact that even one or two, that were used against our troops, existed.
Wonderful post kat, as always!
To the pseudo-cons, libs, lefties, and assorted Bush haters...Sarin and Mustard Gas munitions have been found in IRAQ and have been VERIFIED. To think that MORE WMD do not exist, to think that terrorist found the only Sarin filled shell in Iraq to use it as an IED is ridiculous, and continues promoting the process of believing the lies that you tell yourselves!
If ONE shell full of 4 liters of Sarin were to find its way into terrorist's hands in NY, and they modified it to allow mixing of the two chemicals to create Sarin, and placed it in a suitcase (remember how many empty suitcases that were found in NY three weeks ago...5 of them) in the subways system, 9/11 would look like an Al Qaeda training mission. Estimates by DoHD have civilian casualties at 10,000.
So many of you are misguided by hate and wrong-headed political philosophy. There is little difference in what the "end-result" would yield with the policies of the left, and the pseudo-cons of the right. At the end of the day, we are going to lose many more of our Countrymen if we do not re-elect President Bush, and continue to kill our enemies wherever they hide!
GOD bless AMERICA., our TROOPS, and our PRESIDENT!

It has always been obvious to clear thinking people that Saddam's WMD's were hidden and/or moved, not destroyed.
The media, Democrats and antiwar groups made the "no WMD's found" their mantra to bash our President and aid the enemy.
No matter what is found, the goal posts will continue to be moved because it's all about regaining political power, not the security of our country nor the safety of our troops.
Well said.
This incident proves how silly and futile continued UN inspections would have been. SH apparently ordered that shells containing chemical or biological weapons be altered to look exactly like conventional shells. Usually they were marked with a yellow stripe. The stripe was removed.
Blix and his bumbling cohorts probably saw hundreds of banned munitions shells, but since they looked like allowable ones, just passed them by. What fools!
...we need to politely inform them that their s--- sandwiches are up.
According to the Left, it was a relief to find WMDs in Iraq. Kerry's anti-Bush message was complex, and the find helps Kerry focus.
Yep. This morning I was listening to a talk show and a liberal called in to say that there were no WMDs. When the host brought up the sarin and mustard gas rounds, the caller insisted that the military was lying and that the soldiers would lie as they were told to lie. In this case, he was not moving the goalposts, but rather removing the goalposts completely.
I agree. One must eschew obfuscation at every juncture.
I am soo looking forward to this election and the debates. What has Kerry left? WMDs are found and I imagine more would be. Bin Laden hiding somewhere under a rock if he is still alive. Economy already added 865k jobs this year and its only May. Will probably be a net gain under Bush's term. We dont even need a debate. All we have to do is run Kerry's own words against himself. And after Kerry's media ad blitz, poll numbers are still static and Bush has stopped raising money for his own campaign and now going after money for the RNC. I had a die-hard democrat tell me the other day that he thinks Bush is going to win and probably by a large margin. 2 months ago, he was slobberin for Kerry. How many others are in the same boat. You dont see any stories of people not liking Kerry and then liking him after an ad or a speech by the french looking vietnam "Hero"...
It doesn't matter. The left and the media don't care if there are WMDs or how many there are. To boot, the President refuses to use his "bully pulpit" to get the message out to the world.
I am so glad I am not alone on this. "I couldn't care less" takes slightly longer to say "than I could care less" hence the usage. Just plain laziness and inattention to the english language. SIGH!!!!
Its going to be such fun going after libs when we found more and more of these things... Methinks its strategry and Kerry isnt going to know what hit him with all the revelations coming out of Iraq. All we need are a few snapshots of Saddam's torture machine which will make Abu Grarib look like a picnic. Question si will the traitorous American media run those....
There is a time and place for everything... What really amazes me and I read this last week on the Wash Times is, that even Bush's own staff gets frazzled by the constant negative media drumbeat but Bush is steadfast in his beliefs and always positive and optimistic. Contrast that with the other side of the fence and we have someone we can really be proud off.
The libs and rats will constantly undersestimate the president and get caught with their pants down...
The Rats should be happy about this finding. After all it vindicates their hero, Bill Clinton, who said that Saddam had WMDs.
Perhaps a Photoshopped picture of a hideous torture chamber with "Kerry '04" signs on the wall?
