So, 500 tons of yellow cake is not WMD or planned for WMD? Or did you conveniently forget about that one too. Just in case you are wondering, it ended up being shipped to Canada for some idiotic reason and that was after Saddam was ousted.
And I suppose you will have no problem facing the survivors of Halabja to tell them that Saddam did not have WMD’s. It takes just the size of a briefcase to hold all the precursors to produce WMD’s but are you also self induced to believe he didn’t have them until the bombs came crashing down. One quick dump into the Tigris and all is forgiven in your world.
Then if you really want a capper on your crap, go to the vets with what was called Gulf War Syndrome and tell them the same thing face to face. I know several personaly if you would like to start a list.
Rove disputes claim he encouraged funding of Planned Parenthood

Karl Rove told The Daily Caller on Tuesday that he’s disputing a new book claiming he advised the leader of breast cancer group Susan G. Komen for the Cure to reverse course and pledge to start funding Planned Parenthood again.
Reached by phone, the prominent Republican strategist said the charge made by former Komen senior vice president Karen Handel in “Planned Bullyhood” is “not accurate.” He declined to elaborate.
Handel writes that Rove was among those advising Susan G. Komen for the Cure to reverse course earlier this year after announcing it would stop giving money to Planned Parenthood, which has clinics that perform abortions.
Komen eventually announced it would restore funding to Planned Parenthood after finding itself embroiled in a public relations fiasco as pro-choice and other liberal activists protested.
The author recalls Susan G. Komen for the Cure CEO Nancy Brinker telling her that “I’ve talked to a lot of people. And even Karl says we have to backtrack.”
Handel, who said she didn’t know who “Karl” was at first, recalls Brinker clarifying that she was talking about Rove.
Conservatives reacted to the report with disappointment on Tuesday. “Ever had concerns about Karl Rove? Add this to the list,” RedState editor Erick Erickson wrote on Twitter.
If the allegation is true, it would mean that Rove was advising Komen to restore Planned Parenthood funding as Mitt Romney and the other Republican candidates for president were railing against it.
Reached by TheDC, Komen wouldn’t directly address the claim.
“The book, like many books, contains the author’s personal recollections and views about the organization and its leadership,” spokeswoman Andrea Rader said. “We won’t comment on her personal views or her memory of events. We are moving forward and we are completely focused on our mission to end breast cancer and help women worldwide.”

According to the Post, Handel recounts a conversation with Komen CEO and founder Nancy Brinker in the book as follows:
“We’re so sorry,” said Nancy. “We’re so sorry. But we just have to reverse course.” [...]
Nancy’s reply stunned me. “Karen, I’ve talked to a lot of people. And even Karl says we have to backtrack. There’s just no other way.”
“Karl? Who’s Karl?”
She looked at me strangely as if I should know exactly who she was talking about. She said, “Karl Rove!”
Rove today told The Daily Caller that the account was “not accurate” although he did not elaborate for the website when reached by phone. He indicated he was disputing the account.

***FYI
Sadly, Laura Bush is not pro life like her devoutly pro life husband, Pres. George W. Bush.
Laura Bush and Nancy Brinker are long time friends.
Nancy Brinker’s sister, Susan Komen, died at a young age from breast cancer, and Nancy Brinker established the Susan G. Komen charity in her sister’s honor.
When Pres. Bush appointed Nancy Brinker as Ambassador to Hungary and then as White House Chief of Protocol, I’m sure it was because she’s obviously an accomplished professional, AND she’s also a long time family friend, insider and political contributor.
As many years as Karl Rove was part of the Bush family circle and campaigns, there’s NO way he wouldn’t be on very familiar and friendly terms with Nancy Brinker and the Susan G. Komen charity founded by Brinker.
