What politician would have voted for the IWR if bush had said...
"We have to invade Iraq because they have known, UN-inventoried, UN monitored, UN-sealed since 1991 "WMD""?

NO ONE would have voted "yes", and the American public would have been far more than 56% opposed to any invasion of Iraq.

And of course that's NOT what bush did say; bush said Iraq had UNMONITORED, HIDDEN "WMD".

I don't give a damn what anyone wants to call high explosives; they are conventional explosives but if you want to call them "WMD" or "chew toys" I don't care; they were known, UN-inventoried, UN monitored, UN-sealed since 1991, they WERE NOT HIDDEN UNMONITORED ANYTHING.

What any rightwingnut talking idiot wants to call them DOES NOT MATTER. What matters is they were left unguarded by bush and they've been used to kill our troops ever since, and God only knows whose hands they're in now.

And by the way, folks...don't forget that not only has bush not bothered to secure Iraq's arsenals...he's also STILL not bothered to protect ours; not our WMD storage sites, not our leaking chemical weapons sites, not our nuclear plants or facilities.

Imagine what a few pounds out of the 380 tonnes could do to any of those sites of ours...feel safer yet?
