I am so sick of that weapons of mass destruction argument! No one EVER points out how much time Saddam Hussein was given to hide and distribute them with other ragheads.
The WMD argument is a legitimate Bush gripe, no matter how you look at it. We went into Iraq with a primary goal being the removal of Saddam’s WMD’s. It turned out there were no WMD’s in Iraq, and we were all misled by bad intelligence.
Even if Saddam somehow succeeded in smuggling them out of the country, as you seem to think is the case, then it’s even more disastrous for the Bush Administration; not only did Bush and Cheney fail to destroy the WMD’s but they were hoodwinked into believing there were no WMD’s when they had in fact fallen into the hands of other Muslims.
As am I. . . it is not even an argument, it is an assault upon the laws of logic. "We found no weapons of mass destruction, therefore, there never were weapons of mass destruction." CONCLUSION: Saddam was innocent and Bush was GUILTY!. . Bush lied, people died and yada, yada, yada.
Good point. Also, where in the world does the Assad regime in Syria get stockpiles of chemical weapons to use against their own people? We know it wasn’t produced in their own country. Stupid media in our country. Anything to make their lefty benefactors look good at the country’s expense.
Not only that, they did find a location with a lot of WMD type material, gas or poison, I forget exactly what it was, but it could have been used to kill a massive number of people.
It got very short shrift in the media.
Most of it went to Syria.
