You mean the 500 tons of yellow cake that was recently shipped out of

No, I'm talking about the *non-existent" yellow cake from Niger. The 500
tons you are referring to, predates the 1991 Gulf War. You do, of
course, remember the 1981 Israel bombing of the Tuwaitha nuclear
facility, back when Saddam *did* have a nuclear program. That is the
yellow cake you are referring to and it had been cataloged and under
control of UN inspectors since shortly after the 1991 Gulf War.

But keep trying, sometime, somewhere, you may find a small bit of truth
in Bush's buildup for war. Then weigh the cost, 500 tons of yellow cake,
4000 young American lives, 500 tons of yellow cake, $500 billion. Of
course, $500 billion isn't worth what it was before the present
administration.

So, in the six weeks leading up to the war, while France, Russia, and
China were stalling. What do you think was in the massive convoy that
left for Syria, and where did hundreds of Iraqui scientists go during
that time.. They have never been accounted for. Of course, the
democrats know as much as anyone, but are willing to throw Bush under
the bus, knowing he can't say anything without selling us out...
pffffttt....

The primary sources of the information contained in the book have denied
the Suskind's claims.

I'm not sure this is completely accurate. My understanding is the Richer
has denied the claims, and has stated McGuire gave him permission to make
a *specific* denial statement. NPR was interviewing Suskind, and he
states the McGuire "denial" is the result of confusion, and, after he has
read the book, will confirm Suskind's version. He also states that he
has all the conversations on tape.

But I do agree, one has to be very careful during an ongoing "he said,
she said", especially during an election year. It will take time before
all this shakes out, but, remember, these accusations are about Bush, not
about McCain.

I thought we passed the $500 billion mark a long time ago...

I think that is what we have *spent* short term. Adding in the long
term, care of vets, federal debt interest, etc., I believe the number
will be @ $5 trillion.

Of course you know, Syria supported *Iran* in the Iran-Iraq War? Of
course you also know, Syria was part of the coalition against Iraq in the
1991 Gulf War? Of course you know, Syria was one of the countries that
tortured terrorism suspects for the CIA?

So, knowing all of this, explain to me, why, Syria would accept WMD, with
the world's superpower about to invade Iraq looking for them?

On the world news last night they had a piece about Iraq not spending
their surpluses on rebuilding. Largely because their thought is that
the U.S. blew it up, the U.S. should fix it:

Unbelievable...there must be quite a few American leaders getting their
hands greased to allow this to happen.
