The U.S. government has taken a beating for supposed failures to find weapons of mass destruction in the press, and from political opponent

First of all, with the Dims being intellectually bankrupt, we have evolved to the point where the press tells them what to say.

But the only reason that makes sense to me for the Bush administration willingly taking a beating is that they WANT to appear weak. If Iraq is flypaper for international Islamist terrorism as even now Victor Davis Hansen allows, then appearing weak should encourage terarorists to flock to Iraq to get killed and leave to us their laptops and cell phones. Bush is a poker player and he is getting the enemy to invest in a losing hand. The "enemy" is evidently the Islamists, the MSM, and the radical left.

This stuff is dangerous. Shells from WWI are still killing French farmers.

The BIG LIE, told so often by the DBM, has been reality so long now that we all just take it for the TRUTH.

WE did NOT go to war with IRAQ because of WMD! WMD was only ONE reason among several, all outlined in the resolution passed by the US Congress.

If not for BLAIR's request and OUR subsequent capitulation to go ONCE more to the UN with OUR PROOF of WMD, so he could get cover with the British people, we would not be in the position today vis a vie, WMD's.
