WMD found!
Get ready for THAT headline.

I'm sure Bush would like his planted WMD to cure a bit more time buried in the desert, say, a few more months (til just before the election).

But with this prisoner torture scandal running out of control, they might just have to unearth the "evidence" early.

Stay tuned.

1. Nah...Bin Laden will be "found"
The WMD search is the backup October Surprise.

4. Ugh, I am seriously dreading that day/week/month/year.
The ass-kissing, history revising, and requests for sainthood will be relentless.

6. don't bet on that scenerio!
Nancy HATES the bushies and will NOT allow her 'ronnie' to be used for their political benefit.

8. She may not have much choice.
But, you're right - she's already nixed several proposed memorials and such, so she'd certainly try.

I have to admit that I respect her for that.

10. Spot on!
Edited on Sun May-09-04 12:51 PM by VolcanoJen
Nancy has put the kibosh on the Reagan dime, Ronald Reagan University in Colorado, and Reagan support for Bush's ban of stem cell research.

The signal she's sending out to conservatives is loud and clear: Don't you dare exploit my Ronnie for your personal and political satisfaction.

Nancy is every bit as beloved to conservatives, especially older ones, as her husband. The public will respect her wishes.

5. First Osama will be found
and if that doesn't work, WMDs will be "found" and/or Reagan will "die". I'm still betting on the Osama capture.

3. The WMDs have already been found, they are the photographic...

proof of US war crimes that has hit the headlines. They have destroyed whatever credibility the US had in the world. They are true WMDs.

9. I don't know. Wouldn't you think we would have done it by now?
Any report of WMDs now will look incredibly suspect. You'd think that they wouldn't be stupid enough to do it now.

Oh, wait. This is the Bush Administration we're talking about....

11. Depends
If we find an old drum of anthrax that hasn't been used in years, then it won't mean much. But if we find every type of WMD that * claimed Saddam had (and the ability to get nukes within 3-4 months) then the media will blare it non-stop. I can pciture the smirk on Paula Zahn's face the day they "find" those WMDs.

13. I think it's probably more likely that we'd plant them in Syria, etc.,
and claim that we have proof that Saddam transferred them there shortly before the war started.

But, you're right - no matter how "fixed" it looks, the media will still trumpet it as proof. Ugh....

14. Have you heard about John Loftus?
He's some intelligence "expert" who claims the WMDS are in Syria, and that this whole WMD mess will blow up in the Democrat's faces soon.

15. I'm been hearing/seeing rumors of that for some time now.
I always figured that if there was any truth to them that the media would be pursuing them relentlessly.

12. Where? Next To A Pipe Line?
The only way our military could find WMDs today is if they are within 10 feet of a pipeline they are guarding or in the "Green Zone". We don't have people out there trapesing around in the countryside, if they did they would be dead meat.
