We helped do it. We made them play the WMD car way too early!
Edited on Mon May-17-04 10:14 AM by John_H
With the media actually starting to do their jobs, Chimp in free fall, and Rummy about to hit the long road back to some drug company's corporate suite, they're forced to go with the WMD's.

Of course the round is destroyed, preventing any independend analysis, but it'll be more than enough to bring the whores back into reality--their reality that is, which is that Chimp can do no wrong, and Rummy is that funny guy at the Pentagaon briefings.

My point is that a round of Sarin isn't enough. Too many young Americans have died, too much credibility has bee squandered, too much of the moral highground has been lost to stop the Bush hemorage. I mean, Americans are too smart to let this work, have too much common sense, too much goodness. Don't they? Or do you think.....nah.

On edit: As I wrote below, many Freepers are going to go get ceremonial bridge work and fillings today in honor of the "WMDs,"
and a few will be posting here. It's just way too late Freeps. C'mon,buck up. You guys like being in the opposition better anyway.

6. The sanctions were certainly working for the 800 American soldiers
the thousands who are maimed, their families, nearly ten thousand iraqis, and America's moral power in the world.

Surely many Freepers are going to go get ceremonial bridge work and fillings today in honor of the "WMDs," but I still think a month from now it'll be long gone, and Chimps long slide to the astroturf ranch will be progressing full steam.

5. Nope, this was unexpected
Some of the Iraqi Resistance Fighters (hereafter referred to as IRF) found artillery sheels. These were old chemical weapons shells that were long past their shelf life. They used these shells as a bomb like they would any artillery shell they found.

Basically, it's much ado about nothing.

7. Who didn't know this was coming?
Edited on Mon May-17-04 10:35 AM by sampsonblk
The day after Colin Powell said the WMD evidence was "misleading," the military announces it found sarin a few days ago. No independent corroboration.

Rove. Hughes. Bullshit.

Edit = typo

11. The problem is that, right on cue, the whores are playing it as "it".
Edited on Mon May-17-04 11:08 AM by John_H
The proof. The find. The vindication.

My point is that the bump Chimp will undoubtedly get is so early that it is irelevent as far as the election goes. They had to wate WMD to stop Chimp's free-fall, which it will temproarily, and to save Rummy's ass instead of provide a crucial bump after our convention or late October.
