Warner: New Report Backs Iraq WMD Claims
Edited on Tue Jul-20-04 09:40 PM by southernleftylady
WASHINGTON - An upcoming report will contain "a good deal of new information" backing up the Bush administration's contention that Saddam Hussein (news - web sites) pursued weapons of mass destruction, Senate Armed Services Committee (news - web sites) Chairman John Warner, R-Va., said Tuesday.

1. 'Pursuing' and 'stockpiles' are two different things. Spin...

2. Yeah, I didn't see anything in the article
that hadn't already been said. 'But he wanted to have the weapons we told you he had! he really, really wanted them, don't you see what a threat his desire to have them was to the world?'

3. All republicans are liars...every last one of 'em
All you have to do is see the "R" by their name and you know they are lying. You know they are trying to cover for the nazi we have as a president. You know everything they say is an attempt to cover some crime up. They all suck...they are all fascists and deserve to be in jail for the rest of their worthless lives.

The operative words are "continuing interest in maintaining the potential."

"I'm not suggesting dramatic discoveries," Warner told reporters, but "bits and pieces that Saddam Hussein was clearly defying" international restrictions, "and he and his government had a continuing interest in maintaining the potential to shift to production of various types of weapons of mass destruction in a short period of time."

If that is not double speak, I do not know what is.

5. And stupid ass Republicans will believe every word.
Hahahaha! Freaking assholes probably wouldn't even get to this part of the article:

Warner said the new information covers "some weapons that predate the first Gulf War (news - web sites) that are still around and were used at the time Saddam Hussein used chemical weapons against the Iranians" as well as "remnants of what he was doing himself here in the last several years." He would not elaborate, saying he didn't want to pre-empt the report.

Hell, we probably could have gone in for the catapults they used a few years back too.
