Can someone please explain to me
The amnesia or lack of interest in regards to the Duelfer report???

THIS IS HUGE NEWS - and thus far, I have not read any comments on DU on it.
Kerry was absolutely correct when he stated wrong war, wrong time, wrong place.

And here is something I have been wondering about - if they could not find any WMD, and have determined that Saddam did NOT reconsitute his WMD programs - then does that not mean that he did, in fact, disarm??? He destroyed his pre 1991 arsonal, and did not have ongoing active programs......does that not mean that he DID comply with UN resolutions???

He was no threat to the US. Why won't anyone state the obvious....BUSH IS A WAR CRIMINAL AND HE SHOULD BE IMPEACHED FOR THIS. And I don't care if the election is only 26 days away.

Am I alone in my outrage???

1. No. It's just that we've already known this for nearly a year.
Our outrage is now directed towards getting out the vote.

5. Well - I suspected as such
But I did not know conclusively until last night when the report was released.

I am appalled frankly. As I see it - voting him out is not nearly punishment enough for his crime...not nearly enough.

How many are dead - 10 000, 15 000, 50 000??? Because of a feeble minded, narrow viewpoint of a bitter cowardly and paranoid president.

As Howard Dean would exclaim - AAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!
It makes me so very very upset.

2. No you're not alone
The bigger problem is. Is that NO ONE including bushco is surprised by the report.

3. Well, I doubt you are alone
But this isn't a smoking gun; it's just confirmation of stuff we have known for a while. It puts the official seal on it, but probably provides enough cover to protect President Bush from actually facing a war crimes tribunal.

It is a little sad that it isn't more shocking, i suppose.

4. Because no matter what the reality is
voters for bush are not interested. IT IS A CULT. When have cult members ever been interested in reality? As for undecideds, I don't give them much intellectual credibility either. They have ignored ALL warning signs so far this administration has engaged in pure propagandic falsehoods.

7. Media Hairdos are reporting as if this was just one guy's opinion.
By framing the report this way, there's wiggle room for war criminals.
