That's a half-fact. WMD's was just an issue, as Wolfowitz put it, "that
everyone could agree upon". Everybody on both sides of the aisle in
Congress, who had access to the same pre-war intelligence as Bush, reached
the same conclusion about the existence of the WMD's. Personally, I'm
convinced that the bulk of them went to Syria or were destroyed in the 6-12
months leading up to the war.

However, any suggestion that those who believe in an Iraq/al Qaeda
connection are now losing faith in the substantivity of that relationship is
false. In fact, I think that the terrorist attacks in Iraq over the last
year demonstrate that the terrorists had a much stronger pre-war foothold in
the country than anyone could ever have imagined.


I agree, which means that NYOB's position is no longer unilateral.

* President Clinton: ...generally praises
Clinton as a charismatic, sharp thinker who couldn't get the CIA,
Pentagon and FBI to deal with terrorism issues.

Sure...no partisan bull**** there.

"It was Bush's fault that we had 9/11"
But...
"It wasn't Clinton's fault that we had the 1993 WTC attack, the deaths in
Somalia, the bombing of the Khobar towers, and the bombing of the USS Cole
BECAUSE THE CIA, PENTAGON, AND FBI WOULDN'T LISTEN TO CLINTON!?!?"

He conveniently blames the CIA, Pentagon, and FBI for inaction under
Clinton...but gives them a pass and instead faults Bush for 9/11. Clarke is
a scumbag, two-faced liar, who is in cahoots with Rand Beers in getting Bush
removed and Kerry elected.

Clarke was *the* senior anti-terrorism expert for Reagan, Bush I,
Clinton and Bush II.

Then he did a pretty ****ing miserable job! Would you want his resume?

BTW--He was the "czar" since 1993...so he wasn't the "czar" under Reagan and
Bush I. Just look at the attacks that happened while he was in charge:

1993 WTC bombing
Khobar Towers
USS Cole
9/11

You are right, it is a half fact. It wasn't WMD or terrorism, it was the
threat that they posed to the US, as pointed out in GWB's Cincinnati
speech, no WMD, no terrorism, no threat.

Iraq over the last year demonstrate that the terrorists had a much
stronger pre-war foothold in the country than anyone could ever have

Flawed logic. We opened that box. Pre-war there were no terrorist
attacks in Iraq. I would also suggest calling all the attacks in Iraq
"terrorist" isn't accurate. While some attacks are, perhaps even al
Qaeda, others are Bathist remnants, religious sects, and ethnic squabbles.

Only to demonstrate the difference between unilateral and multilateral
(even though the 'multi' is only 'bi' in this case).

Personally, I couldn't give a rat's ass what Harry, b'asskisser, or
DSK have to say about anything. I keep wondering why gas prices are
going up when the whole reason (according to the group) that we
invaded Iraq was to "get their oil."

If my using your post in this manner was offensive in any way, I
apologize.

Of course not. But to agree with another conservative is akin to
homosexuality and naziism in the eyes of a few frustrated liberals here. Oh
well...in another 7 1/2 months, it'll be all over, their guy will have lost,
and we won't have to hear from them for another couple of years.

Well, I didn't really agree 'cause the first time I saw it I disagreed
