And David Kaye said that in the area of research and development of WMD, the situation found was far more dangerous than anything suspected and he stated PRESIDENT GEORGE W. BUSH was 100% correct in getting rid of j-f-sillykins soul-mate, saddam.

"A small amount of the nerve agent sarin was found in a shell that exploded in Iraq, the U.S. army said Monday in the first announcement of discovery of any of the weapons on which Washington made its case for war," reports Reuters. In the Washington game of pulling back the goal posts whenever the opposing team gets close to scoring, the Democrats will dutifully downplay this report. Recall their selective reading of David Kay's report. They ignored Kay's finding that up until the beginning of the war Iraqi scientists were "actively working to produce a biological weapon using the poison ricin."

Monday's news confirms what Kay reported to an indifferent Congress: "We know that terrorists were passing through Iraq. And now we know that there was little control over Iraq's weapons capabilities. I think it shows that Iraq was a very dangerous place. The country had the technology, the ability to produce, and there were terrorist groups passing through the country -- and no central control."

The Democrats seized upon elements of Kay's report to advance their claim that Iraq under Saddam Hussein was less dangerous than assumed. But Kay was trying to explain to them that Iraq was more dangerous than even Bush's pre-war picture allowed: "I actually think what we learned during the inspection made Iraq a more dangerous place, potentially, than, in fact, we thought it was even before the war."
