"I have very important things at my disposal that I have been ordered to have, to keep, and I've kept them,"This is ridiculous! What needs to be found in order for officials to determin it's a smoking gun?
If this is not what Bush and Powell were referring too as WMD/NUCS and the stuff the inept UN was looking for as illegal, why was this guy ORDERED to keep, and hide it?

What needs to be found in order for officials to determin it's a smoking gun? I read in a different article that the Administration has said this is not the smoking gun. I wonder whether Bush is down playing this so the Democrats continue to attack him on WMD. Perhaps he knows there are more revelations to come.

For some folks, 9/11 was not a smoking gun on Al Queda either. These folks are called liberals.

I read in a different article that the Administration has said this is not the smoking gun.to be exact, they said it wasn't a smoking gun that a weapon had been produced only that a program would be in place once the sanctions were lifted.

The only think I can think is that liberals, being seriously mentally ill and self- and other- desturctive (we can tell because they are actively trying to destroy the wrorld) in their heart of hearts really want to some bad terrorist action, like some cities nuked, or mass causalties. Since overpopulation is one of their theme songs, large loss of life is actually desirable to them.
