Have you wondered where Hillary is....
Right Wing Sparkle
with this "Bush lied" crowd? It's interesting. Hillary is the Democrats best chance at the White House in '08. It will certainly be a bloody fight if anyone tries to take away the nomination from her. But there is this loud roar from the Democrat side saying that the intelligent information regarding Saddam was manipulated by the Bush administration. But the thing is, their number one chance at the White House felt very differently:
In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program. He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including al Qaeda members ... It is clear, however, that if left unchecked, Saddam Hussein will continue to increase his capacity to wage biological and chemical warfare, and will keep trying to develop nuclear weapons.
- Sen. Hillary Clinton (D, NY), Oct 10, 2002
The intelligence which the president shared with us was in line with what we saw in the White House"
-- - Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton, 2003

Here are a host of quotes from prominent Democratic leaders that they probably don't want you remembering.
The the most telling one? Well, it's by the guy who will probably give Hillary her bloody fight for the nomination..John Kerry.
[Without question, we need to disarm Saddam Hussein. He is a brutal, murderous dictator, leading an oppressive regime ... He presents a particularly grievous threat because he is so consistently prone to miscalculation ... And now he is miscalculating America's response to his continued deceit and his consistent grasp for weapons of mass destruction ... So the threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is real ..." Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Jan. 23. 2003.
There is even a quote on that link of Bill Clinton as President asking for military action because of Saddam's WMD program.
So the question is this. If Bush lied, then didn't Both Clintons and Kerry and the rest lie as well?
I heard Arianna Huffington asked this question on the radio yesterday and she said, "But they didn't go to war." How strange. You mean it's only a lie if you go to war? If we hadn't gone, then it becomes the truth?
What a game the Democrats play.
