You obviously strain yourself finding denials and defenses for the indefendable things your idol and incompetent chief perpetrates. GOP hacks have no conscience and certainly no sense of social justice. 100,000 Iraqi deaths in 18 months beats out anything Saddam has done.

STALEY: All I can say with certainty is that, on that day, there were bunker after bunker after bunker of explosives, tons of them, that were unguarded. We went in and looked at some of them. I know that these explosives existed, that they were not guarded either when we got there or when we left. And some of the bunkers weren't even locked. We had to break a couple of padlocks to get into some of them. Others, we did not. They were wide open. transcripts.cnn.com So Aaron Brown asks David Kay: Was there anything else at the facility that would have been under IAEA seal? David Kay: Absolutely nothing. It was the HMX, RDX, the two high explosives. And David Albright: Experts who have studied the images say the barrels on the tape contain the high explosive HMX, and the U.N. markings on the barrels are clear. "I talked to a former inspector who's a colleague of mine, and he confirmed that, indeed, these pictures look just like what he remembers seeing inside those bunkers," said David Albright, president of the Institute for Science and International Security in Washington. And... Weapons experts familiar with the work of the international inspectors in Iraq say the videotape appears identical to photographs that the inspectors took of the explosives, which were put under seal before the war. One frame shows what the experts say is a seal, with narrow wires that would have to be broken if anyone entered through the main door of the bunker. The agency said that when it left Iraq in mid-March, only days before the war began, the only bunkers bearing its seals at the huge complex contained the explosive known as HMX. nytimes.com
