Great retort to "Everyone in the world thought there were WMDs!"
Randi nailed it a few minutes ago. "Then why didn't everyone in the world join our little coalition of the willing? Why didn't we have the international allies that we needed?"

Hmmmmm... :dunce: :dunce:

4. My retort: And everyone in the world waited for weapons inspectors to
confirm or deny that there were WMDs. Everyone but the dictatortot.

10. Your answer is very similar to my own: "If the inspectors had
been given the chance to complete their inspection before Bush decided to run them out of the country and start dropping bombs, everyone would have known that the sanctions had worked and Saddam had disarmed."

5. I always say, "Really? I never bought it for a second"
and follow it up with "When an old lady in an obscure town in flyover country knows more than the government does, isn't it time to start asking serious questions of the government?"

8. Even those on planet Gorgon knew saddam had WMD
but they could not afford to send their sons to fight the battle against the evil leader of Iraq, because the sons of gorgon are republicans and republicans do not die in battle, they die of drug overdoses and clashes with jealous husbands, while waving their patriotic flags. All the while being praised by free republic members for their patriotic service.
