This is great, but the problem is with Bush. Why does the White House remain silent on this? I just do not understand this after hearing the radical leftist Moon-bats saying in the media, "Bush lied people died" crap!

Looking at the politics of the issue, President Bush's blue ribbon commission on WMD, the Iraq Survey Group issued a final report and an then an addendum to the final report saying that there was no proof that WMD were shipped out of Iraq. Even more importantly, to have the administration now admit that they were outsmarted by Saddam Hussein and made fools of by having such failed intelligence that we allowed Iranian operatives (Ahmed Chalabi and the infamous informant "Curveball") to convince us that there were "massive storehouses" of WMD in Iraq, could be politically devastating in an election year. The administration appears to have made a calculated political decision to cut their losses on WMD and defend the war on the grounds of spreading democracy to Iraq.

What would be the point of President Bush saying anything? You'd never see anything about it on the news or read anything in the newspapers. By him saying anything the only thing it would accomplish would be to let those against the President and Admin know just how much he does know so they could put their anti-Bush spin on it before it was then swiftly swept under the rug just like everything else, so the public can't learn the truth.

As smart as he is, I believe President Bush realizes this and has elected to give them as little fuel for their fires as possible by staying silent.

The same thing was true of Bush, Sr., no matter what egregious calumny was cast at him and his administration (most notably during the Clinton/Bush campaign,) the White House remained silent. Easily disproved slurs and pseudo-facts were dispensed daily by the DBM, the masses sucked it up, and Bush Sr. stared into a corner and wept.

The evidence for the WMD has been percolating throughout the Iraqi War, but do not ever think our current POTUS will even whimper about it.
