Heard John Loftus on WABC radio last night....

[Postman]

was on the Batchler and Alexander program.

He said it would be foolish for the Democrats to go after Bush with the WMD issue because it's gonna blow up in their face due to he-(Loftus)having inside information that the WMD's were dumped over the border in Syria and are at three different locations inside Syria.

Loftus said that the one group of Weapons Inspectors that were leaving Iraq were a "hunter" group. But still remaining in Iraq was a "dismantling" group of inspectors presumably dismantling "found" weapons.

BS?

An exodus of WMD's out of Iraq and into Syria would not have been detected by satellite imagery?

Syria would accept these weapons and in so doing, invite the wrath of the US military?

Saddam Hussein, knowing invasion was coming, would not use these devastaing weapons but send them to Syria in the hopes of recovering them once he regained power in a US military occupied Iraq?

Isn't this all wishful thinking by desperate, power-hungry liars who have been busted dead to rights?

1. Like many right-wing ideas ....

you don't have to prove it to make it true. It just is because they say so.

[private_ryan]

2. the same guy who said Saddam was killed in the first bomb

nuf' said.

6. Right. Generalissimo Saddam is still dead.

Guess that's one of his doubles we de-loused.

I wonder, have we found any of those doubles?

[Minstrel Boy]

3. And yet Iraqis in custody for months, despite blandishments to squeal,

emphatically assert the WMD were destroyed years before.

For God's sake, it's nearly a year now, and still no WMD. Why hasn't that stark fact blown up in Bush's face?

4. I like Loftus but

awhile back he said the same thing but that the WMDs were hidden in the Iraq desert.

5. Loftus has good sources

If the BFEE and Mossad is saying the WMD's are in the desert than dammit, that is where Mossad and the BFEE PUT them.

Like Saddam, when they need to find the hidey hole they will find them and Loftus probably has inside info on this.

Remmber PNAC NEEDS one more war (Syria) to advance --- and finding the wmd's in the Syrian desert MAY be the excuse to head of the next election.

Just aperspective.

I am HOPING this is what Loftus is alluding to.

I like John too, but sometimes find his sentiments and info do not coincide with mine.

I tend to trust his info tho...

7. Condi says not

And I think she probably knows.

Rice: No Evidence Iraq Moved WMD to Syria
http://www.newsday.com/news/nationworld/world/wire/sns-ap-us-syria,0,5752765.story?coll=sns-ap-world-headlines

The United States has no credible evidence that Iraq moved weapons of mass destruction into Syria early last year before the U.S.-led war that drove Saddam Hussein from power, National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice said Friday.

8. I used to like Batchelor and Alexander

when it first aired right after 9/11. Then they started Eisner's signals and slanted more to the right. They did a hatchet piece on Clark when he first entered, trying to diss the Draft Clark movement when they had none other than Katrina Vanden Huevel on as their guest.
Last I heard Alexander left B&A because he got into a fight with Bathchelor over Faux News whore Monica Crowley, and how she was a guest too often.

I agree with Loftus that we shouldn't overplay the WMD situation. Yes * exaggerated the threat, but if we find anything spinable by the media, imminent threat or not, it will hurt us.
