JUST GREAT: U.N.: Weapons equipment missing in Iraq

1. It seems to me this is all the same stuff Kerry was talking about

just before the election. Everyone was so focused on the one facility that lost materials, without realizing of course that it was just the tip of the iceberg. This has continued to be one of the biggest things to me. If you were so certain there were WMD's, don't you think you would plan to guard all the facilities where you thought that stuff would be? Hmmmmm...not if you know they aren't really there, and not if you want the conventional weapons and equipment to end up in peoples hands so that you can get your never ending war.

But never mind that...never mind that Rumsfeld apparently thinks releasing photo's violates the Geneva Convention, but the torture part itself does not, never mind that Bush is trying to dismantle social service programs, never mind that Haliburton, fraud and all, gets bonuses that we pay for, never mind that we are building permanent military bases in Iraq, never mind that we have a fraud riddled election system, never mind that every citizen in this country does not have equal rights, never mind the weakening of your ability to sue businesses that operate unethically or illegally, never mind your weakened bankruptcy protections from companies that feed off of your need, never mind the religous propoganda, never mind that we are entering an energy crisis we can not even imagine, never mind the weakening of our educational system, never mind that the environment is being destroyed for business under bullshit deceptive program titles, never mind that pro-corporation henchman keep getting appointed to government regulatory agencies, never minmd that your pensions are not safe, never mind that your civil rights are being taken away....

oh, just never mind.
