The search for "Weapons of Mass Destruction" in Iraq has officially ended. Democrats and anti-war nuts from the "wrong war, wrong place, wrong time" crowd are making a big deal over the announcement, as if there were no WMD found at all. I'm not the only one who noticed that the GOP is letting them get away with it.
Bush would do better to explain to the American people just what U.S. forces did find in their search for banned weapons in Iraq - starting with, for instance, the 1.8 tons of partially enriched uranium Saddam had socked away. [...]Maybe now we'll start looking for WMD elsewhere, like Syria or Iran.And if Bush needs more ammunition to refute Pelosi, he could cite the discovery of Sarin gas-filled artillery shells. [...]
And if the White House wants some dramatic imagery to show how easy it was for Saddam to hide banned weapons, how about those photos of the 30 Iraqi jet fighters that weapons searchers found buried in the sand near Baghdad.

So you have no problem with the fact that Bush lied his way into a war that has cost over 1400 American lives?
(Cliche alert)
Better to fight terrorists in the streets of Baghdad than the streets of New York.... (Of course, terrorism in Iraq was not a threat until AFTER we invaded.)
This is a war to protect our freedoms.... (How, exactly, were our freedoms at risk from what happened in Iraq prior to our invasion?)
Saddam was responsible for 9.11.... (I'm not even going dignify that egregious display of ignorance with a comment...oh, wait...I just did.)
I see the Administration's propaganda machine's hard work has not been wasted. How sad.

Who was part of it? Syria was part of the U.N. control committee. Mr. Kay, whom the liberal media quote liberally in their "See, No WMD's!"-type coverage, conveniently omit the fact that he spotted many heavy truck caravans moving something from Iraq to Syria just prior to the war. Now what do you suppose that might have been? The war is probably preventing your death, Jack, since they are concentrating there instead of here. Is that worth it to you?
