Mark my words, WMD will be found!
And you will look like an un-American fool! They may find them 4 months before the election, and your Dean and all you liberals will really hand the election over to President Bush.

That was a statement declared to me from a "friend" who can't stand the heat about the intelligence info.

When I replied with "Oh yeah, I remember Poppy Bush was CIA, gee, why would WMD show up just months before the election?"

He said: "Of course you liberals will spin it that it was planted."

He's ignored me since then.

Mark my words, my friend will one day admit his retirement plan SUCKS, and he will not be able to retire as soon as he thinks he will.

1. You bet your ass we'll spin it like it's been planted.
Because it will be true. And tell the little freeper we'll give them twice as long to find those nasty WMD's as they gave Hans Blix. Oops, times up.

2. One time I agree with Alan Colmes
Dem's need to stress We WANT WMD's to be found - not for Bush's sake, but for the credibility of the United States in World Affairs.

8. Credibility? What Credibility?
The emperor has ruined our credibility. He and the rest of the Republican Party have drug the once good name of ours through the mud and the blood.

There are no WMD in Iraq except for the ones we sold them in the Raygun years!! And it's quite obvious that Clinton destroyed all of those that were left after Raygun and Rumsfeld took their profits.

The only way we restore our good name is to do right by the Iraqi people. We must do whatever it takes for those poor invaded people to be able to tell the rest of the world.."Ya know...them yanks ain't too bad, after all."

Hope we find WMD.....jeeez

3. I don't think the CIA will be in any hurry to help the Bushistas
And, judging from the "quality" of excuses and lies coming out of the administration, they won't be able to plant them on their own.

5. WMD can't be "faked" is what I understand.
They can trace back the source on Anthrax, and probably ALL bio/chem and especially nuclear deposits.

So even if they find a plutonium cookbook, they will probably find Cheney's handprints all over it.

Hah, I wish.

4. It might be too late for that now.
ABC, NBC and CBS are tonight runing the quotes from severly pissed off US soldiers who are stuck in Iraq indefinitey. To me, this is a TELLING shift in mainstream media's attitudes towards bush & co.

So, plantimg WMD now, and getting the media to accept them as genuine, just got a HELL of a lot harder!!

7. It's the intelligence
Either the intelligence showed that we knew Iraq had weapons or it didn't. Whatever we find now by accident is not the same thing as knowing there was actually a weapon in Iraq before the war. Intelligence that showed imminent threat. Get off finding the damned weapons!!! It just let's them dodge the fact that the intelligence was a pack of lies.
