FWIW, ladies and gentlemen, WMD in Iraq

Here is a 129 KB PDF of a 4-page fax sent from the House Permanent Committee on Intelligence to Senator Rick Santorum's office. Quite a few chemical "weapons munitions" have been found since the Iraqi incursion.

So, did President Bush lie about WMD's considering that it appears that Saddam Hussein managed to get rid of most but not all of them? "About 500" have been found in three years. How many more are in the hands of the Islamo-fascists?

More on this here and here. Oh! Goodness! That first one is a Fox News story! That couldn't be true, could it?

I'm amazed that this did not come out during the 04 election. It must have been tempting.

Brian,

And now I see that the "weapons munitions" aren't considered "real" WMD's, mainly because they're old and would not have been any part of a buildup between the Gulf War and the Iraq War. Thus not much about it in the news.

Thanks for chiming in!
