So, if our 25 year old son were serving a meal in a restaurant and was shot by somone. That would be okay because he was not pure, because perhaps he was not a virgin.

You liberals are amazing in your lack of logic.

I'd suggest you enlist in the United Ststaes Military and defend Americans; instead of the mamby-pampy pro-this spend America - Tax America /pro-that -Give it to the welfare state unemployed lazy Democrats. When will you Liberals ever become PRO AMERICAN?

"Valerie Plame a WMD analyst at the CIA. The WH did not know of CIA WMD concerns, something that should have come from her desk...."

Back in 2002 her husband was giving speeches around the country opposing the war because he felt Saddam would use WMD on our troops.

They are lying!

Man, did you hit the nail on the head!Saddam had six months to move his WMDs before we attacked. In Oct 2004, it came out that Russian advisors were overseeing the move of the WMDs to Syria for Saddam. The news lasted exactly one news cycle and then disappeared off the radar screen. No one in the MSM picked it up--deliberately.

I wonder why Powell waited until there was success in Iraq to spill his guts? Waiting to see which side he should take? I don't blame Rumsfield for not being "pleasant" with Powell either. He was probably part of the leak crowd too.

This is the beginning of the end game.

For 18 months there has been a constant refrain of "Bush LIED".

Now, the darling of the media, Colin Powell himself comes out and says what any thinking person already knew, the CIA dropped the ball.

I can't wait to hear how the MSM is gonna spin this one.

Cheers,

Thanks for a very coherent, succinct and well phrased post summing it all up beautifully. I can't stand Powell! He is a passive aggressive phony! don't trust the man!

That line caught my eye as well. Just remember, this is what the BBC says that Powell said. The exact context may be different than what the article intimates.

An Iraqi former commander just said this week Saddam moved his WMD's to Syria 6 wks before we invaded Iraq. He said NO one has looked in Syria but that's where they are.

"Mr Powell's former chief-of-staff Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson made the damning allegations last month,..."

I've never really trusted anyone who calls himself "Lawrence"...

I read our satellites have images of truck convoys moving from Iraq to Syria.

What do you think was in them?

Also, people have to stop and think what is WMD? Do we have to find 2 TONS of anthrax, before it's WMD, when, in fact a few ounces can kill thousands of people? And how easy is it to hide a small envelope? How can we discover it when we have an entire country to search and we are not allowed to even inconvenience prisoners, who might know where they are?

I suspect that the Boy Assad will soon fall.

He isn't his old man by a long shot.  His almost comic attempts to pull of the strongman role have been so amateurish to be almost laughable.

I give him 6 months.  By coup or by assassination, his days are numbered.

Cheers,
