The fact is, every top Democrat from Clinton on down said Saddam had WMD, when Bush was making the case that Saddam was a threat that needed to be reckoned with Democrats saw the same intelligence as Bush did and drew the same conclusion, that Saddam was undoubtedly armed with WMD.
And every Western intelligence agency including that of a socialist British Prime Minister, France, Germany and even Russia all thought Saddam had WMD. Putin even reiterated recently on "60 Minutes" that Russia was sure Saddam had WMD. So the "WMD" wasn't a lie. It was consensus.
So the only question that remains is what Saddam did with his WMD. Democrats and their seditious allies in the media aren't willing to ask that question, preferring instead to throw rocks at the president's integrity rather than asking why everyone thought he had them and yet they were gone when we got there.
And by the way, the Senate Intelligence Committee investigation on pre-war intelligence determined there was NO INTENTIONAL EFFORT TO DECEIVE NOR MANIPULATION OF THE INTELLIGENCE. So the Dems. can put away the simple-minded and slanderous "Bush lied" crap because at least 3 separate investigations have proven he did not. And the quotes provided above lend further evidence that Bush did not lie, but believed as everyone else did that Saddam had WMD.
Demoncrats are liars.
Keep on file for "Bush Lied" email chains I get.

Good idea!

Good compilation of old news the MSM ignores.
No. Each day, go to the DU site and post these. If we got a concerted effort, we can keep them tongue tied for a few seconds, maybe...
None of that matters a whit. The only things that matters are the lies. They must be repeated over and over.
The message is intended for the rabid semilliterate mass who barely knows what happened today much less several years ago.
The DNC mounts a humongous propaganda effort and Dingy Harry reads his script as directed.
Yep and not one of those D's had the nuts to do dick about it. If it was President Gore in 2001, God forbid, the WMD question might be more clear imho because instead of disappearing they'd be in use against American assets abroad, Israel and here CONUS at the hands of alQaeda
I have no idea. I have never looked at it, much less posted there. But, I'm certainly willing to get banned from it...
It doesn't matter. The Bush-haters will continue to say Bush Lied, no matter what. Their word-artisans will pour it on.
"Yep and not one of those D's had the nuts to do dick about it."
You bring up an interesting point. The boilerplate DemoZombie reply to all these quotes showing Clinton and others were raising a warning voice about Saddam and WMD before Bush ever did is: "Well Clinton didn't start a war in Iraq, Bush did!" My standard reply to that is "So Clinton saw the self-same threat in Saddam's Iraq as Bush did yet Bush was the only one of the two willing to take bold action to end Saddam's threat and in this equation Clinton is the one who looks good in your warped mind?" They just usually reply with a blank stare.
"Harry Reid is involved in the Mormon cult,they believe that satan and Jesus were brothers and that God had relations with Mary to Make Jesus.
In other words, He is a typical evil liberal!"
I don't think that bigoted comment has any place here. Reid's religion has nothing to do with his politics, and most Mormons are strong conservatives. Utah gave Bush the most support by percentage of any other state. I hope you will re-think your hatefulness, and your misrepresentation of Mormon doctrines.
Don't forget UN resolution 1441. The UN in it's "infinite wisdom" knew there was threat but also failed to act. That'll get you more blank stares.
