Senators Santorum and Lieberman Produce Iraqi Mustard Canister for Disbelieving Press

by Dood Abides

Washington, DC (Rotters) - After being rebuffed by the press yesterday for disclosing a two-month old report on the Army's continued destruction of deteriorated pre-1991 munitions containing evidence of mustard gas and sarin, Pennsylvania Republican Senator Rick Santorum accompanied by Connecticut Democratic Senator Joe Lieberman, as a sign of bipartisan support, produced one of the actual recovered canisters at a follow up press conference this morning. Santorum and Lieberman went on to reiterate that this was clearly evidence of the existence of weapons of mass destruction prior to the invasion of Iraq, therefore justifying the Bush administration's actions.
"We have also clearly been able to discern that there was indeed a French connection involved in Saddam Hussein's WMD development program after all." stated Santorum. "We must support the president and our troops on the ground until their original mission is fulfilled and all of Iraq is free from the threat of mustard gas and saffron."

"There is a story circulating that these canisters are largely empty or that the contents are no longer potent and long since expired," stated Senator Lieberman. "This is a dangerous assumption to be making. As you can see, on this particular canister, it is clearly marked that the contents will remain potent through 2008."

3. Okay, NOW I accept that we had to go to war

Yes, it's worth going to war over people eating yellow mustard. Oh man that shit sucks.

Gulden's is a different story.

7. If true they are crazy

nobody in their right mind would knowingly carry around a can of mustard gas. That stuff is corrosive in the best of times. Subject to leakage.

10. This is the most pathetic episode of running scared I've seen lately.

From two Republicans. No surprise there.
