Dr. Kay has said that Bush should come clean and admit that there are no WMD. Demolib lies. They told us that Saddam had WMD. Exactly right, they sure did. "He will use those weapons of mass destruction again, as he has ten times since 1983." Sandy Berger, Clinton National Security Adviser, Feb, 18, 1998 "Hussein has . . . chosen to spend his money on building weapons of mass destruction and palaces for his cronies." Madeline Albright, Clinton Secretary of State, Nov. 10, 1999 "We begin with the common belief that Saddam Hussein is a tyrant and a threat to the peace and stability of the region. He has ignored the mandated of the United Nations and is building weapons of mass destruction and the means of delivering them." Sen. Carl Levin (D, MI), Sept. 19, 2002 "We know that he has stored secret supplies of biological and chemical weapons throughout his country." Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002 "We have known for many years that Saddam Hussein is seeking and developing weapons of mass destruction." Sen. Ted Kennedy (D, MA), Sept. 27, 2002 "I will be voting to give the President of the United States the authority to use force-if necessary-to disarm Saddam Hussein because I believe that a deadly arsenal of weapons of mass destruction in his hands is a real and grave threat to our security." Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Oct. 9, 2002 "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 We know that Saddam and bin Laden distrusted each other. So what? They all distrust one another, what possible diffrence could that make? We are faced with an impossible situation in Iraq YES, that is the KERRY chiKen Little thought process, but thankfully our President does not kowtow to france, as would J Fonda Kerry.

There is nothing to come clean about, Kay is premature. Even he knows that there is both testimonial and circumstantial evidence that stockpiles crossed the Syrian border, although we are not in a position to verify it. I posted a piece on the linkage to Al Qaida. It is true that the Administration has officially distanced itself from the Freith memo, but it has not repudiated it, nor specified its reservations. You are merely assuming the worst, you have no way of knowing that the Iraqis cannot handle security, for example, or that civil war is inevitable. What is clear enough to me, in any case, that almost anything would be better for Iraq than being subject to the brutality of the fallen regime.
