Why did Bob Graham (D-FL) of the Senate Intelligence Committee know to vote against the preemptive war resolution? Think he had access to bad intelligence?
THIS Bob Graham???? "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... We are in possession of what I think to be compelling evidence that Saddam Hussein has, and has had for a number of years, a developing capacity for the production and storage of weapons of mass destruction."
Sen. Bob Graham (D, FL), Dec. 8, 2002
Strongly recommend you go and read SI's DON'T START THE WAR thread
Yes, go read Pitytimes "Support the terrorists" thread. you must be proud....
most of the GOPwinger folks who post here, argued against us and said the country was full of WMD and Al Qaeda connections.
yep right again Pitytime...right wingers like Hillary:
"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
and like Liveshot 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
yep, those right wingers are a dime a dozen, HUH?
and don't forget Rockefeller:
"There is unmistakable evidence that Saddam Hussein is working aggressively to develop nuclear weapons and will likely have nuclear weapons within the next five years . . . . We also should remember that we have always underestimated the progress Saddam has made in development of weapons of mass destruction."
Sen. Jay Rockefeller (D, WV), Oct 10, 2002 |
