The only reason you know Saddam doesn't have WMD IS because of Bush.

"If we had found a nuclear bomb program or such that was of any potential threat to our safety you would be right."

If you weren't so willfully ignorant you wouldn't make so
many inane & baseless comments.

Saddam relentlessly violated every sanction & UN Resolution.
And even though the inspectors did real damage to Saddam's
WMD programs, they never came close to eliminating them or
Saddam's plans to keep & improve them. Saddam worked hard to
maintain & improve his WMD programs while the sanctions were
in effect. And Saddam had nearly bribed his way into having
the sanctions & the UN Resolutions lifted so he could be free
to rebuild "stockpiles" of WMD's.

So much for the above assertion. And so much for this one too.

"But as it is Saddam was contained."

But then you insist on clinging to thoroughly discredited DNC
Talking Points that the MSM gleefully reported as though they
were fact.

Let me know when you have actually read the Iraq Survey
Group's report & the public comments by David Kay & Charles
Duelfer.

Or the Senate Intelligence Committee report.

Or the 9/11 Commission report.

Or any of the current investigations into the Oil-for-Food scandal.

I'll gladly accept your public apology for being so thoroughly
wrong on so many assertions you have made on these issues.

Why do you think he was contained? In the late 90's there was a Report given to Congress (available on the net) that stated that Saddam had exported a significant part of his WMD programs to Libya and the Sudan (largly to avoid weapons inspectors, U.S. bombers and keep the programs alive) - in return, the Iraqis where sharing the technology with the Libyans, Sudanese, and al Qaeda.
