"As a member of the House Intelligence Committee, I am keenly aware that the proliferation of chemical and biological weapons is an issue of grave importance to all nations. 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."

No. When the democrat left wing liberal loonies lost the White House, they all changed their tunes.

Let's see. She said that in 1998. This was after Saddam had blocked the previous inspections in 1991. When the UN inspected in 2002-2003, with much more but, admittedly, not unlimited access, they found no evidence of any WMD's, and it turned out that there were none. I don't suppose it had occurred to you that things can change over time? The ability to change your mind when facts change is not, as Bush supporters seem to feel, a sign of weakness or flip-flopping. It is rationality.

No, but the only people who actually tried to make a connection with 9/11 and Iraq was the Bush administration. You can't sit there and tell me that Iraq had anything to do with 9/11. If you're going to invade Iraq then don't B.S. the American public with stories of Al-Qaeda & Saddam working together hand-in-hand. He took advantage of the situation and you d*mn well know it.

Amazing how many people don't get how that whole "inspection fiasco" run by Hans Blix just gave Saddam enough stalling time to rid Iraq of whatever evidence there was.

He wouldn't have been the first politician to have used a rather creative interpretation of the truth.
