No it wouldn't, Al. Lots of CIA agents were convinced that Iraq did have WMD. Lots of Democrats as well were convinced of that notion. You're telling me that those CIA agents and the Democrats who believed them can also be convicted with "circumstantial evidence"?
I think it would take too long to bring you around, particularly when you are not disposed to be open minded. Let's make it easy...even if bush, the dems, clinton, believed that there were WMDs, you didn't see any of them, except for bush and hos minions, exagerating the case in the public eye as they did, none of them used language like "mushroom clouds over our cities", or assert with absolute certainty that "we know exactly where the WMDs are (rumsfeld), or that " we know now that iraq has reconstituted its nuclear program (cheney)...or cite bogus evidence about yellow cake purchases, and repeat these things ad nauseatum, despite words of caution from all sides (wilson, scowcroft, the UN, blix, baradei, even the CIA).
Wake up man...un-smell the partisan roses.
