This is a superb, comprehensive editorial worthy of a careful read. For example:

"...All of the world’s major intelligence agencies, probably to include most agents in Saddam Hussein’s own Mukhabarat as well as his own generals, believed Iraq had an active WMD program. He did, as has been recently shown, have existing stockpiles of up to 700 chemical projectiles.

"...Iraq attempted to buy uranium in Niger. The outing of Valerie Plame was not a White House plot.

"...Saddam was winning the sanctions war. He had throughly corrupted the United Nations food-for-oil program and Europe was pushing to eliminate the crumbling sanctions regime. Had Saddam been allowed to remain in power, the likelihood is that he would have resumed production and development of WMD....

In addition, the U.S. was spending about $10 billion per year enforcing the no-fly zones in Iraq and the Iraqis were very frequently challenging U.S. supremacy in the UN mandated no-fly zones.

"Democrats for truth"

Might have been possible, once upon a time, long long ago...
But today? No.

"Saddam’s regime had contact with al-Qaeda, as his own documents attest. "

And William Clinton said he attacked a suspected chemical weapons plant because he had intel data that it was being used by Hussain, in collusion with al Quaeda- he mentioned growing concern over the links between the two.

Good post, Shrinkermd but don't forget:

Saddam's goons fired SAMs at NATO jets patrolling the no-fly zone in Iraq for several years, up until we invaded Iraq and removed the threat.

The "dims for truth" completely ignore this well-documented fact.

I guess if you call movies like "Fahrenheit 911" the "truth", then yeah, maybe the democRATs are for truth.


But in this case - when it gets legs and actually produces fruit, I will believe it. Otherwise, I firmly stand that "Democrat" and "lies" are synonyms.

It is becoming increasingly clear that democrats are worse
than the terrorists, they are undermining America.
At least with the muslims you know they want to kill you.
Democrats are subversive they want to rape your childrens minds and give our country to the first totalitarian they can find.

Grand slam!

Here's another Dem challenge to the President that we should all throw back in their faces regarding "the path to 9/11":

"Admit you made mistakes"!

Clinton is concerned a TV dramatization will become the accepted version of history.

It will be accepted unless people successfully put forth other ideas that are more acceptable. Clinton & al. will have a hard time disputing the central idea: democrats are demonstrably corrupt, untrustworthy and unqualified to lead the country.
