I thought we'd pictures of trucks full of suspicious-looking materials driving out of Iraq.

And stuff being loaded on trucks at the back door while inspectors walked in the front door.

We also had pictures of "mobile weapons labs" and other shit according to Powell's presentation.

Poor guy.

I always loved the "Bush Lied" battle cry.

So they think he's too stupid to do most anything, but he was able to engineer one of the most elaborate plans ever conceived just so he could take the U.S. to war with Iraq?

(Not to mention his ability to manipulate weather and cause Katrina.)

The UN acknowledged that Saddam had WMDs back in the first gulf war. HE USED THEM. They weren't all used, nor were they all destroyed, but 13 years later they all just magically didn't exist anymore? Nevermind all the evidence showing they were hidden (or that they had 13 years to do just that). Ignore the evidence provided by multiple countries and the UN that weapons were shipped out to Syria. Push aside all the weapons found around the world from Iraq with UN inspection stickers still on them. All that matters is "Bush lied".

I would expect a right wing nut to say that.

You probably also don't believe that Bush had the twin towers knocked down because they were full of asbestos and it would have cost too much money to remove it.

Open your eyes to the corporate machine!

I've never heard that one. Please tell me that's not a real conspiracy theory.

Yes it is. My lady friends husband is convinced of it and can show you the websites that prove it.

I don't talk to him about it because I don't want any time spent around him to be worse then it already is(since his is obviously a little douchy) but I try to get my girlfriend to get more details when her rants about it and I am not around.

But what really happened is that they needed to remove all the asbestos from the trade center and it was going to cost too much cash. So as a favor to a rich friend Bush let them knock them down since it would give Bush an excuse to go to war. Two birds with one stone.

Their insanity knows no bounds.

They believe all the conspiracy theories that are clearly insane about Bush, but I'll bet they voted Obama despite all of his shady connections.

Probably pretty close there. Had Thanksgiving with a couple today, and the husband just got back from over there. Asked him about this and he said they use whatever they can get their hands on for the IEDs. So it was probably something with a very narrow directional blast that they placed upside down to try to disperse the blast instead of having it go straight up.

I remember a story back in the summer where they had quietly loaded over 500 tons of yellowcake and shipped it out of Iraq. Didn't get much news space.

I've given up. People remember what they want to remember, and know what they want to know.

Yeah. I remember thinking at the time that no one cares. The story is now that there was absolutely no reason to go in and a little thing like 560 tons of yellow cake means nothing. Made it a non-story.

That 500 tons was from before the first Gulf War. We already knew about it. It was non-enriched, couldn't be used for weapons.

Couldn't be used for dirty bombs even?
