Saddam was not supposedly an "imminent" threat, then why did Bush spend so much time and effort talking up the fact that they were going to find oodles of WMDs just as soon as they got into Iraq

Because he believed it, the CIA having told him that he would. The "imminence" of the threat was not directly related to whether Saddam had WMDs (everybody believed he did), but on what he intended to do with them in the near future.

Since you are no fool, you obviously know this too. You are just adopting every dishonest partisan argument out there, as well as insulting me with charges that project your own style onto me. Your arguments have become as offensive as they are dishonest. I'm done wasting my time with you.
