Secondly one would imagine with all this 'evidence' you speak of we would have heard about. Perhaps Fox News? No they're too busy covering the schools in Iraq or other nonsense. How about any other major news organizations? Or even the administration? Interesting isn't it that for some reason or another we haven't had Bush, Cheney, or what's left of the neocons he brought on (hopefully the administration has had enough of them) present hard documented evidence of this 'massive' buildup of WMDs. Or at least some high tech labs other than the third world garage labs Kay supposedly found. One would think that to produce as much as Bush outlined in his 2003 SOTU speech one would need just a bit more. Oh, there have been first reports of 'found' WMDs but strangely those don't meet the muster for even Fox for more than a few days. Of course we have hangers on like the Weekly Standard still trying to drum up support and provide one man accounts of 'I saw them I just don't remember where' stories but no major press coverage, even from Fox. I'm telling you it's a conspiracy!!

The President's man, Kay, even has stated more than once that perhaps they weren't there at the levels we were told. When exactly will you accept that WMDs just aren't there at the levels we were told?

For once you are right. Put the 300,000+ decaying bodies back in their mass graves, and cover them over, as we had no reason to dig them up now did we? Saddam should be in power right now, regardless of what he has done, or what he will do. All those homeless orphans in those children's prisons? Perhaps they WERE better off there, who's to say? And Clinton was satisfied in leaving Saddam in power as his legacy, why should Bush be so picky? The 25 million citizens of Iraq don't really know what freedom is, since they have never experienced it, so what's the hurt in putting things back the way they were? I am only glad that Saddam is still alive, and we can correct this terrible injustice. Get him a shave, clean him up, even press his uniform, and put him back in his palace. Then, we can ask his forgiveness and hope he just lets bygones be bygones, eh? Certainly, we won't have to worry about any connections he might have had or still might use with terrorist organizations like Ansar-il-Islam, Hezbolla, The Al-Aqsa Brigades, Fatah, Hamas, the Egyptian wing of Islamic Jihad, or Al Qaida itself, as there never was any connection, right?

This whole thing is Bush's fault, as he incorrectly assumed there are Weapons of Mass Destruction in a country that in the past had used Weapons of Mass Destruction more than ten times in both massed battles against its neighbors, and against its own people, and that every international intelligence agency that had an opinion regarding this issue said exactly the same thing, and that the Democrats were almost in unison about this also, until the Presidential campaign started of course, and that Saddam could have defused this entire war if he just admitted that he hadn't retained any WMD's, instead of continuing a campaign of deception as if he were hiding WMDs, as the UN determined from their inspections. I mean, anyone could have seen through all that. Thanks for setting me straight.
