The truth: Did liberals believe that Iraq had WMDs? YES
Did liberals give their approval to invade Iraq? YES
Did conservatives think that Iraq had WMDs? YES
Did conservatives give their approval to invade Iraq? YES
Did other countries believe that Iraq had WMDs? YES
Did Iraq have WMDs and use them on its people? YES
Was it likely that Saddam was still hiding WMDs? YES
Did we find any when we went into Iraq? NO
Was any evidence found that WMDs had existed in Iraq? YES
Does it follow (logically) that someone lied about WMDs in order to invade Iraq? NO - That is stupid logic.
- we know Saddam was a liar. And he stonewalled inspectors at every turn. As a buffer in the Middle East, it was in Iraq's interest to keep the world guessing about WMDs. Also it served to keep Iran in check.
Was invading Iraq a mistake (in hindsight)? Depends on whom you ask.
Are liberals morons for continuing to bring up WMDs? YES.
Will they ever shut up about it? NO - You can't fix stupid.
