I say Tantaros is a terrorist trying to kill Americans. There. Now she's accused. Let the waterboarding begin.

[garthggarth]

Republicans are bullies who show no respect for anyone who respectfully disagrees with them.

They can't touch Obama, at the moment, so they go after the Speaker...

It's ludicrous, adn the rest of the world sees it as juvenile.

Tantaros is a shill for the fascism slowly taking root in the U.S. The intelligence was cherry picked and wrapped in a bow. George Tenet was pressured to hastily produce an NIE (national intelligence estimate) to implicate Iraq.

This bitch would be singing a different tune if it were a different president who had done this. She's a lying, unreliable, inhuman fascist.

So if I have one molecule of anthrax, I have a WMD? I think lives are a better measure. But I'll drop that, because you refuse to answer it, why? I don't know

I was hoping for a definition that was harder to reach than mine, but fine, we'll go with yours. Next question. Do you merely need to have the chemicals or biological agents intact for it to be considered a WMD?

Or do you need the chemical loaded into a working missile or delivery system and as soon as you push the red button people die?

@LordVigeous666999 WMD=Biological, chemical, or nuclear weapons. Saddam had none of these.

[LordVigeous666999]

Did you know about that? Of course you did not. Because of two things; 1) you don't watch FOX, so of course you are not informed on the war, liberals need to keep you stupid, to keep you on their side

2) you don't have friends and family over seas like I do, so you don't pay attention as much. I'm playing with a little more investment

thats just 2 OTHER reasons that Bush cited Pre-war, there is pretty long list

[LordVigeous666999]

this is just one of the OTHER reasons, Bush cited pre-war. He also cited Saddam having terrorist connections. And seeing as during the war, we picked up Al-zarakwee, (sorry for bad spelling), in Iraq, who was the Leader of Al-qida in Mesopatamia, and endorsed by Bin Laden, with an Iraqi Passport, I think that was justified

As well as the terrorist training camp in northern Iraq, you know, the one we were negotiating with Turkey, to use that country as a launching pad to attack?

[LordVigeous666999]

To your question; Bush cited saddam firing missiles at US planes in violation of the 1st gulf war peace treaty. as you know, we had control of the south and north air space of Iraq to protect the kurds and the shites that saddam had a tendency to kill a lot. He fired upon our planes over 3,000+ separate occasions. And this is a low estimate, do the math, this is about once a day

And no one was killed, true, but if someone fires a gun at you, you don't say, "don't stop him, hes a bad shot"

[LordVigeous666999]

how is it parsing words to ask what a WMD is? A pistol kills a single person with one pulling of the trigger. A nuclear weapon can kill millions with a single pushing of the button

why is it parsing words to ask, at what number of lives, you draw the line? I need to know this, so I can tell you if we found WMDs or not

[adamsfall]

@LordVigeous666999 Okay, so the term WMD is rendered meaningless by your parsing of words. And what are the other reasons that Bush indicated PRIOR to the invasion? And, I believe it was the Germans who said that "curveball" was not reliable. What did the weapons inspectors themselves say? maybe you should research that.

[LordVigeous666999]

@adamsfall

So there were no WMDs between 91-03? And you cannot define what a WMD is? How do you know there were none there, if you cannot define what was not there?

and after we finish this WMD thing, then we can talk about all the other reasons BUSH said we needed to Iraq for. You know, the reasons that were used to get the authorization to use force from congress? Before Colin Powell made a fool of himself by blowing the intelligence out of proportion to get UN support, which he failed in

[LordVigeous666999]

And before I can answer your question, I need to know how you define a WMD. How many deaths in one fell swoop? 10,000? 100,000? 1 million? 10 million? When does it become a WMD?
