<Frankly, truthfully, I wish all this were not so. It would have been much better for the world if every farfetched claim of Bush / Cheney / Rice / Powell had proven true.>

Yeah, whatever. Had Saddam possessed WMD as we had believed, he would have certainly used them in defense of his brutal regime. We would have dumped sarin gas all over the country to save his sorry ass. That would have killed huge numbers of our troops and countless numbers of Iraqi people.

Bottom line is that we removed the threat of his worst case scenario. It is totally insane to argue that you wish the son of a bitch had the WMD to kill more people. It is obvious that you believe in this idealist mantra that we should run all of our foreign affairs by officials in Paris before we make a decision. I disagree with your Kerryist support for a diplomatic approach. I have absolutely no regard for the competing interests of our economic adversaries in Western Europe. They are the most corrupt business leaders in the world, protecting their own interests at any expense. How many French companies were on the list of names accepting bribes from Saddam?
