re: #385 The Very Reverend Battleaxe of Knowledge

That was the most incredible thing about the runup to the war to me—listening to them promoting chemical weapons into the category of “Weapons of Mass Destruction” and nobody calling them on it. I was hoarse from shouting at the TV!

I was uncomfortable with Bush and Powell’s case for the invasion (I do know a little about such things) but I figured Bush had to know he would be impeached if our guys went in and failed to turn up any WMD. Hell, maybe he and the administration knew something I didn’t.
Looks like they did, namely that they could actually get away with it.

I STILL hear RWNJs claim that the poison gas, nukes, and Cthulhu knows what else were spirited away to Syria before and during the invasion. They see Assad’s use of gas as confirmation of this view. These people are either morons or they think everyone else is, in which case they are yet another example of Dunning-Kruger syndrome at work on what passes for the conservative mind.
