The democrat party and their base have continually worked to undermine America in the war on terror and have given moral support to our enemies. They have lied about the war in Iraq for political gain. Saddam Hussein was a serious threat to this nation. But lying about Iraq has never even been enough. The democrats have also acted as the civil rights movement for terrorists as well. They have... fought for civilian trials for terrorists. They have fought to stop the Commander-in-Chief from intercepting enemy communications coming across our borders (though now they use that power?) This despicable behavior has divided America and seems to have been completely for that purpose, they were playing for political gain. This is made obvious by the fact that Obama still uses all of the powers that the democrats were supposedly against.

Not well known but it was Ramsey Clark, the democrat party Attorney General under Carter, who served as the defense attorney for Saddam Hussein against the United States. Ramsey Clark did not deny the genocidal nature of Saddam but actuall argued that he was justified in the mass murder of his own people. Ramsey Clark even cried when Saddam Hussein was found guilty and sentenced to death. In Saddam Hussein’s final letter he thanked all of those left-wingers (the democrat party) in the west that supported him. It is sickening that this is now a part of the democrat parties history.

If this article is 100 percent true, it’s a game-changer. The biggest attack the Democrats have used against the Republicans the last seven years is gone. George W. Bush would have to be rated as one of the ten best presidents in U.S. history. Bush-bashing in 2012 will have greatly diminished appeal as the facts get out.

The facts on these things do get out eventually. In the 1970s, for example, the left proclaimed that the Soviet Union was on the whole a success and the media went along with it. Eventually, however, the facts came out.

If Mr. Lacey can document his sources so we can be 100 percent sure of this article’s accuracy, we need to make sure that every American hears these facts.

I remember the news reports of the poor Iraqis having to use radioactive barrels for their water. Of course, this went away when the flack about the yellow cake broke.

1. There were buildings on Iraqi bases that were off limits because people got deathly ill upon entering.

Or even being in close proximity of some of those buildings.

There was one (I won't say where) that had yellow "DO NOT ENTER" tape around its perimeter because people had gotten burning sensations in their eyes and noses just from being near the building.
