What is selective BS is a career diplomat in Powell's office made an unsubstantiated claim that Powell has denied.
>If Bush was found sleeping with teenage boys Krusher, you'd blame it on Liberals.
More of your BS if you have no proof insult.
>Time to stop crying about the lost cause of W's greatness and be a tad more honest.
Honesty is what this all about, the dems are being dishonest and ignoring 12 years while trying to rewrite history. If you want to jump on the band wagon feel free its your right.

What is pathetic is the transparent attempt to ignore the facts that almost everyone agreed on.
in 1998, Clinton's Justice Department indicted bin Laden. Count 4 of the
indictment has a paragraph that reads.
Al Qaeda also forged alliances with the National Islamic Front in the Sudan
and with the government of Iran and its associated terrorist group Hezballahfor the purpose of working together against their perceived common enemies in the West, particularly the United States. In addition, al Qaeda reached an understanding with the government of Iraq that al Qaeda would not work against that government and that on particular projects, specifically including weapons development, al Qaeda would work cooperatively with the Government of Iraq.

Has To Be Focused As A Priority On The Biological And Chemical Domains. It
Is There That Our Presumptions About Iraq Are The Most Significant.
Regarding The Chemical Domain, We Have Evidence Of Its Capacity To Produce VX And Yperite. In The Biological Domain, The Evidence Suggests The Possible Possession Of Significant Stocks Of Anthrax And Botulism Toxin, And Possibly A Production Capability." (United Nations Security Council, 4701st Meeting, New York, 2/5/03)
* German Ambassador To The United States Wolfgang Ischinger: "I Think All Of Our Governments Believe That Iraq Has Produced Weapons Of Mass Destruction And That We Have To Assume That They Still Have That They Continue To Have Weapons Of Mass Destruction. We Have Not Yet Seen Evidence Produced By The Inspectors." (NBC's "Today," 2/26/03)
