Ari jumps the shark (yet again)
"I think the burden is on those people who think he didn't have weapons of mass destruction to tell the world where they are."

4. Well....
"I think the burden is on those people who think he didn't have weapons of mass destruction to tell the world where they are."


Perhaps they sprang from the fevered imagination of the current administration?

5. At least they're consistent
Before the invasion, Smirk said Saddam had to prove a negative....that he didn't have WMD. Now, those who point out that the WMD have been destroyed by UN inspection regime, must tell "where they are".

This could go on for an eternity. Now that we know he doesn't have them and that they are destroyed, Smirk can demand to know "where they are" for an eternity.

Would be cute if he were a schoolboy on a playground in the third grade neener neenering someone. These are the Adults in charge?????

:shrug:

7. Whaaaa????
That's the most incomprehensible piece of crap I've ever read. Isn't that kind of like a prosecuting attorney saying to the defense "I think those who say that the defendant didn't kill anyone has an obligation to show me where the bodies are."?

13. You nailed it!
That is the biggest bullshit statement I've seen out of Ari fLIEscher in quite some time. Interestingly enough, Dann Coulter was saying the exact same thing in a recent interview.

8. That makes no sense.
If someone thinks that WMDs DID NOT EXIST then why would they speculate on the location of something that they think DID NOT EXIST?

10. Excuse me Shithead !
The burden of proof is on those that go to war and kill innocent people! It is up to you to proof you did it for a legitimate reason. Where are the WMDs? The burden of proof is on you!

17. As John Stewart would say: "WHAAAAAHHHHH???!!!???"
If we think he DID NOT have them, we therefore have to PRODUCE THEM to prove our case?

News flash, moron! When we say he didn't have them, we're not saying he gave them to us! We're saying they DON'T EXIST!!

These people have lost their minds.

19. Remember, this is the same man who said
that all Americans "need to watch what they say, watch what they do."

Perhaps he should take his own facist advice.

36. In all fairness
to Ari it has to be understood that he IS just a spokesman for Bush. Echoing the presidents thoughts (loosely speaking).

22. BUSH BASED HIS DECISION TO HAVE OUR KIDS KILLED
on the basis that iraq could not tell us "where their wmd were not located." Ari knows the moron base will consume his words but the base is getting smaller ari. Dumbass, cowardly logic. JUST TELL THE DAMN TRUTH AND LET THE RESIGATIONS FALL WHERE THEY MAY.

24. The nonexistant WMDs are right over there
The fact that you do not see anything is proof that they never existed.

I wish someone in the WH press corps would ask it!

25. We here at DU addressed this issue a long time ago.
The weapons of mass destruction were destroyed prior to the Fall of 1998. As I recall, UN inspectors were busy sifting through chemical-laden sand and debris about four days before the bombs started falling.

I wish Ari would listen once in a while.

28. Poor Ari.
He's obviously in need of a good stint in a nuthouse. We should all send him Gatorade-he has to be sweating his nuts off at this point.

29. Hunh? Wha...?
"I think the burden is on those people who think he didn't have weapons of mass destruction to tell the world where they are."

I don't think he had weapons of mass destruction so I have to tell the world where they are? How the hell am I supposed to know where something is that I don't think existed in the first place?
:wtf:

That makes my head hurt.

34. pretzel logic
The following statement is true.
The preceding statement is false.


maybe it's a zen koan - an unsolvable paradox that will shutdown all thought. I guees we'll find out when we see Ari catch the fly with his chopsticks.

35. Hey Ari! Al Qaeda Has All Of Them
They snuck them out of Iraq while we were looking for Saddam & Sons.

Don't believe me, Ari? Prove al Qaeda doesn't have them!

People who don't believe that the war has made al Qaeda more dangerous have to prove that al Qaeda doesn't have WMD's now.

Happy now, Ari?

37. well, how bad is this?
I had a DREAM about him the other night.

he had a brand, spanking new rug on his head...luxurious, dark brown, and he said something that made me laugh hard.

maybe that quote was it.......the dream was premonitory.
