Bush claimed that Iraq had nuclear,biological,and chemical weapons
hidden away. NO SUCH WEAPONS WERE FOUND! Don't you
read the freaken newspapers?


Little has been found to date, but even if none had been found, how would
that prove Bush's claim to be a lie?


If none have been found so far, there isn't any WMD.

So, in that case, how would you characterize Bush (and Powell)
statements about WMD?

Would they be:

fibs?

little white lies?

a grave misunderstanding?

exaggerations?

Because of Bush's beliefs he has plunged this nation into a war where

about 1000 US troops have been killed so far and many.many. more

maimed and wounded.

Bush has created a $400 billion deficit because of the war.

The chances of Iraq becoming a democracy are slim to none.

Would you have been saying the same thing a few weeks ago? Would it
also have been true of Saddam Hussein?

Bush has created a $400 billion deficit because of the war.

What was Clinton's excuse? He increased the federal debt by 1.4
trillion dollars in 8 years of pre-9/11 peacetime.

Why? Because the entire country has been searched?

The burden of proof is on those who say that such a thing exists,
despite efforts which to date have found nothing.

For several months Saddam Hussien was not found, did that mean he
didn't exist either?

Bush made a pre-emptive war on a sovereign country for reasons that
were lies.


There were several reasons given, which were lies?


How about , to start with, the Bush administration lie about WMD.

How about the Bush lie about Iraq posing an immediate threat to our
national security?

And what proof do you have that these are lies? You seem pretty ****ed
about this. You aren't a Howard Dean fan by chance?

LOL! Which would explain his poor temperament today, given Dean's abysmal
performance in the Iowa caucus last night...
