The wingnuts are still clinging to the WMD's in Iraq story? |
|
had a confrontation with a female wingnut today during a discussion in one of my classes. When I mentioned that we went to war with Iraq based on lies, she insisted that there were WMD's in Iraq. When I asked what happened to them, she told me they were moved to Turkey. This I never heard before. Has anyone else ever heard or is there any evidence that WMD's were moved to Turky? Was Iraq even friendly with Turkey when Saddam was in power?

2. Syria, Iran - and why not Turkey? |
|
Bullies never admit they were wrong see under Dildo Reilly- Malmedy or Coulter - Canada in Vietnam. They also never accepted that Clinton was exonerated in Whitewater or the Earth is not flat.

3. She may as well have said that ET's moved them |
|
and won't give them back. Her story is a load of bologna. If that would have happened bush would have nukked Turkey.

9. that's what I told her. Show me some evidence |
|
all she would say is a former classmate she spoke to at a class reunion who worked at the pentagon told her this. I totally dismissed her when she attempted to discuss robert McNamera with me.

4. Hannity told her they went to Iran and Syria |
|
She's confused.
Tell her to go back and have Hannity tell her what to think some more and be sure and tell her not to ask Hannity how he knows that.

7. Just slap her down (verbally) and demand proof of a single WMD |
|
That'll shut her up. If it doesn't, do it over and over until her brain cells wake up.

14. she got angry with me when I cut her off |
|
she started saying something about Robert McNamera and I interrupted her by asking her if she knew who Scott Ritter or David Kay is. I explained to her that even people in the little monkeys admin (if not the chimp himself)have admited there were none. My head almost exploded as I thought, How can these people open their mouths and even speak? I don't argue with people if I'm not absolutely certain of the facts I'm supporting. I've found that it's better to keep my mouth shut and look like a fool than to open it up and prove it. But this is absolutely driving me crazy.

11. Don't they listen to their leaders? |
|
Didn't Rummy just get all pissed at someone and say he never said they knew where the WMD were? Seems I heard the convo clip on Randi's show and she played the clip of him saying we know exactly where they are in areas around Baghdad?
They still think Iraq is linked with 9/11 even after their Chimperor said there is no evidence connecting the two.
There's no getting through to the willfully ignorant.

16. I wish I had that article handy |
|
both the rumsfeld article and the otherone where admin officials admitted there were none. I love to shove it in her face Monday. but then she'd probably just say it was a MSM article and you can't trust the press. Had another one tell me that today too, but that's another story.

22. That's one of the many reasons I love Randi |
|
She always keeps the sound bites... you can't argue with words coming from the horse's mouth!
I'd sure love to have a recording of all that stuff!

13. If They Existed They Would Be Used Against Our Troops Today |
|
Because the people who hid them are now the people attacking us. They are using everything they can find but nobody is hitting us with 'weapons of mass destruction' (just exactly what is that anyway?).

in his hidey hole.
These Bush apologists are worthless, they make it up as they go. Just ignore them.

the professor of the English Composition class I'm taking has been giving us reading assignments of great philosophers such as Lao Tzu, Machiavelli, Plato, Jefferson, Martin Luther King and Thoreau. She expects us to participate in class discussions. It's hard not bringing up current events or politics when your assignments are reading the writings of people like that.

17. Everytime I think that these bush-bots can't get any more stupid... |
|
...another one rolls around, and pulls their pea brain out for the world to see, and proves me wrong.
Even Bush's own freakin' stooge inspector, that he planted there himself said that there was no weapons program.

She didn't say they moved them to Turkey. She said "I believe they had WMD because I'm a turkey."

28. They moved them to Syria |
|
without our having any knowledge despite a massive intelligence effort (you would think) in the run up to war because Clinton destroyed the CIA or or or they actually moved them there in 1999 when Clinton wasn't paying attention or or or they moved them in underground tunnels (why haven't we found these in the 3 years we've been in Iraq?) because Clinton had them filled in to cover up his involvement in the Nicole Brown-Simpson/Ron Goldman murders. Yeah, that's it!
