If President Bush Lied About WMD's in Iraq, Then Why Didn't He Plant WMD's There To Cover His Story ?

Question

Some 'people' say he's responsible for 9/11 too. . . . . ok, so if he could pull off that GIANT conspiracy. . .. . .. then how hard would it have been to have the military 'uncover' WMD's in Iraq ? And then the Republicans would have ALL won overwhelming victories in the November elections !!!

I'd just love to read any 'logical' responses to this !!!!

Hey argle bargle gargle - Newsflash. . . We Got em !!!!

Answer 1

This is all about American traitors. Democrats are power hungry and will do anything to gain it, including destroying America. The democrats talked tough again Iraq, but when it came down to it would sell out for control of both houses. Traitorous pukes!

"One way or the other, we are determined to deny Iraq the capacity to develop weapons of mass destruction and the missiles to deliver them. That is our bottom line."
--President Bill Clinton, Feb. 4, 1998

"If Saddam rejects peace and we have to use force, our purpose is clear. We want to seriously diminish the threat posed by Iraq's weapons of mass destruction program."
--President Bill Clinton, Feb. 17, 1998

"Iraq is a long way from [here], but what happens there matters a great deal here. For the risks that the leaders of a rogue state will use nuclear, chemical or biological weapons against us or our allies is the greatest security threat we face."
--Madeline Albright, Feb 18, 1998

"He will use those weapons of mass destruction again, as he has ten times since 1983."
--Sandy Berger, Clinton National Security Adviser, Feb, 18, 1998

"[W]e urge you, after consulting with Congress, and consistent with the U.S. Constitution and laws, to take necessary actions (including, if appropriate, air and missile strikes on suspect Iraqi sites) to respond effectively to the threat posed by Iraq's refusal to end its weapons of mass destruction programs."
Letter to President Clinton, signed by:
-- Democratic Senators Carl Levin, Tom Daschle, John Kerry, and others, Oct. 9, 1998

"Saddam Hussein has been engaged in the development of weapons of mass destruction technology which is a threat to countries in the region and he has made a mockery of the weapons inspection process."
-Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D, CA), Dec. 16, 1998

"Hussein has ... chosen to spend his money on building weapons of mass destruction and palaces for his cronies."
-- Madeline Albright, Clinton Secretary of State, Nov. 10, 1999

"There is no doubt that ... Saddam Hussein has reinvigorated his weapons programs. Reports indicate that biological, chemical and nuclear programs continue apace and may be back to pre-Gulf War status. In addition, Saddam continues to redefine delivery systems and is doubtless using the cover of a licit missile program to develop longer-range missiles that will threaten the United States and our allies."
Letter to President Bush, Signed by:
-- Sen. Bob Graham (D, FL), and others, Dec 5, 2001

"We begin with the common belief that Saddam Hussein is a tyrant and a threat to the peace and stability of the region. He has ignored the mandate of the United Nations and is building weapons of mass destruction and th! e means of delivering them."
-- Sen. Carl Levin (D, MI), Sept. 19, 2002

"We know that he has stored secret supplies of biological and chemical weapons throughout his country."
-- Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002

"Iraq's search for weapons of mass destruction has proven impossible to deter and we should assume that it will continue for as long as Saddam is in power."
-- Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002

"We have known for many years that Saddam Hussein is seeking and developing weapons of mass destruction."
-- Sen. Ted Kennedy (D, MA), Sept. 27, 2002

"The last UN weapons inspectors left Iraq in October of 1998. We are confident that Saddam Hussein retains some stockpiles of chemical and biological weapons, and that he has since embarked on a crash course to build up his chemical and biological warfare capabilities. Intelligence reports indicate that he is seeking nuclear weapons..."
-- Sen. Robert Byrd (D, WV), Oct. 3, 2002

"I will be voting to give the President of the United States the authority to use force -- if necessary -- to disarm Saddam Hussein because I believe that a deadly arsenal of weapons of mass destruction in his hands is a real and grave threat to our security."
-- Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Oct. 9, 2002

"There is unmistakable evidence that Saddam Hussein is working aggressively to develop nuclear weapons and will likely have nuclear weapons within the next five years ... We also should remember we have always underestimated the progress Saddam has made in development of weapons of mass destruction."
-- Sen. Jay Rockefeller (D, WV), Oct 10, 2002

"He has systematically violated, over the course of the past 11 years, every significant UN resolution that has demanded that he disarm and destroy his chemical and biological weapons, and any nuclear capacity. This he has refused to do"
-- Rep. Henry Waxman (D, CA), Oct. 10, 2002

"In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program. He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including al Qaeda members ... It is clear, however, that if left unchecked, Saddam Hussein will continue to increase his capacity to wage biological and chemical warfare, and will keep trying to develop nuclear weapons."
-- Sen. Hillary Clinton (D, NY), Oct 10, 2002

Answer 2

Agreed.......Everyone on the left seems to conveniently forget, non-withstanding the universal agreement based on intelligence gathered by the entire international intelligence community, that Saddam possessed WMD's, ALL the big ten nations and even the US (Former President Clinton as well.) that Saddam's WMD 's were still in Iraq. The UN COULD NOT, WOULD NOT, or WAS UNABLE to account for all the WMD's that the US, USSR, France, Germany, and UK actually GAVE to Iraq (ET AL) in the early 70's and 80's. These WMD's were also manifested by the UN Security Council and their inspectors. The problem is that Saddam ceased destruction of these WMD's and kicked the UN out. These same WMD's HAVE NOT been accounted for.

Be that as it may, the Iraqi people repeatedly appealed to the USA for liberation and the US delivered.

It is now up to the Iraqi people to take control of their country and if that means civil war, then so be it, but I'd like to see the US set their own "time table" and tell the Iraqi PM to "Roger-up," because we are about to leave the building.

Whether the DNC, Liberals, doves, agree with the war or not, our troops, our country, and our President, will take the battle to terrorist in any venue necessary to ensure our survival as a nation and a people. Apathy, appeasement, indifference, and indecision, are unforgivable sins.

Edit #1: I just read the answer from ccguy & he nailed this one! (Thumbs up!)

Answer 3

He didnt lie he was misinformed. He made his decision (and so did congress people forget that) based on what his advisors along with advisors from the un told him. Do ya really think he went and investigated for himself? And SO WHAT if there were no WMD's Saddam was a sick bastard that has killed hundred of thousands of his own people. Its the 21st century, there is no reason an evil person like that should be allowed to terrorize his own people like that. So to all you anti-war ignorant bastards. Lets say we are invaded by the chinese...they kick the crap outa us.....we are all being killed off by some crazy chinese warlord and no one will come to help us because people like you are in france and germany and brittain saying " war is bad"...are ya gonna complain then? freakin pansys

Answer 4

Excellent point and Waswisgirl or whatever her name is ain't to bright. It isn't like Bush is operating alone, it would have been really easy for the US military to plant WMD during special operations. WMDs are big but the USA military was in total control at severral points. The UN was nowhere to be seen contrary to Josh's comment.

Answer 5

You forget. He isn't really all that smart. Remember? He fooled all those smart Democrats into thinking he was right about WMD's and he got so excited he forgot to execute the rest of the dastardly plan. Rove must have been sleeping and Cheney was at an undisclosed location, incommunicado.

Answer 6

now you are thinking this is the point where the rubber meets the road and realty sits in .. anyone that has set down and thought things out come to the same conclusion .. If you remember they found 3 or 4 fighter jets buried in someones back yard.. If they would go to that point to hide a few plans,it would not surprise me to find whole chemical plants still buried in the desert .. I'm surprised that Baghdad was still in place when we arrived ...

Answer 7

if you didn't live in america then you were not subjected to the propaganda and you knew iraq could not have had any wmd as america had quit selling wmd to iraq. this stuff is hard to plant as it would be traceable to some country/factory and likely have a paper trail. no doubt the idea of planting wmd likely was discussed. bottom line the french, saddam, and the un inspectors were right , bush was wrong, no wmd

Answer 8

The people close enough to the president to be in on a cover-up would be too cowardly to go to Iraq to plant the WMDs.

We had inspectors combing Iraq for years. Bush knew damned well there were no WMDs there.

Answer 9

No, he was wrong about the WMDs. To lie, one must know before hand that they are telling an untruth. If Bush lied, so did Clinton (both Bill and Hill), Kerry, and the UN

Answer 10

he didn't lie about them. that's the politicians slinging crap at each other.

2 weeks before the invasion everyone believed they existed including Hillary and Hans Blix.

Planting WMD's is a bit difficult. would have made a bigger scandal don't you think?

Answer 11

Valid point. My conclusions are:
1) He didn't lie.
2) He has too much integrity to plant WMD's.

This would never occur to his enemies as they can't conceive of telling the truth & don't know the meaning of the word "integrity".
