George Bush, and the rest of his croonies said Iraq had WMD's. It was a big reason for going to war.
Surely the neocons wouldn't of lied, and lied, and lied as a reason to go to war! Ya...they did.

No because there was never any WMD's in the first place. Just a joke put out by George to fool the American public. Mind you it did work the joke. Because sadly they fell for it.

well remember all throughout the 90's it was the democrats which were claiming that iraq had WMD, it is also well documented how Iraq would not let UN inspectors into "sites".
To answer your question directly- yes WMD have been found in Iraq. over 500 Pieces of Artillery containing Mustard gas and Nerve gas have been removed along with 2 tons of low grade Uranium.
the next thing you may say is that the Nerve gas is too old - well nerve gas is stored in a binary containment style system which keeps it good for many, many decades- whereas fresh nerve gas has a shelf life of only a couple of weeks. The mustard gas was tested as good- and the uranium many can argue about what is was used for but one thing is for sure- you must first have low grade, before you can make weapons grade.
along with that there have been dozens of sites found which were of interest and were suspected of holding WMD in Iraq - as we initially took over Iraq those buildings. They were found to be completely empty- I mean completely- no furniture - no dust - no nothing.

Remember the line...do you want the proof to be a mushroom cloud? If that isn't blatantly lying to the American people I don't know what is. Maybe Saddam shipped them to Iran and they have turned them into explosive devices and are sending them back to Iraq to use against our military??? Saddam had the crap kicked out of his military during Operation Desert Storm, we were well aware he had no more military power yet our President and his staff made it seem like he was a menace to the world and especially us. It was the greatest con job the cons have pulled to date, that is if you don't count the lies they get their base to believe. Smaller government, less intrusive government and a fiscally responsible government. They have broken every standard of the republican party yet their base still cheers them on, massive debt and all.

Are you saying that Bill Clinton, John Kerry, John Edwards, Howard Dean, Nancy Pelosi, Sandy Berger and Hillary Clinton are cronies of President Bush because I don't believe that he could stand the site of them, yet they all said that Iraq had WMDs? Wise up.

Yes we did they, they were in the form of chemical, not nuclear, but they were still WMD. I guess that just goes to show how much you know! Maybe you should study more!

Yes they did, we found over 300 rounds of mortar and artillery rockets with mustard and sarin nerve agent in them. Not to mention the manufacturing areas capable of producing chemical weapons and the ingredients. For anything else you have to ask the Israelis about that raid into Syria.

And we never went to the moon, and Saddam never used WMD's on his own people...
