HIstorical revionists at Fox News claim WMDs found in Iraq, facts disagree

Fox is trying to pump a bogus story about 500 chemical warheads found in Iraq, as a "bombshell development". In reality, the U.N. knew about these weapons, the Iraqi survey group listed them as useless munitions because they predated the first Gulf War and had degraded beyond the capacity for use, i.e. the chemicals were no longer able to kill anyone, or in the very least, kill anyone outside of a 100 foot radius (roughly the radius of a standard MISSILE BLAST). That's why the Bush administration hasn't bothered trying to highlight them in the last few years, because he would get laughed at. People aren't stupid. The weapons inspectors knew about these things and they didn't bother asking Saddam to do anything about them because they were already useless.

Now the right-wing fanatics at Fox News are trying to pump this propaganda as Bush being right all along. They're seriously despicable.

waiting for whoopie (up next with hannity)

durrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

And will believe anything the GOP spews.

I remember a beaut, shortly after we got into Iraq. Faux breathlessly reported how US forces had found a cache of drums containing some Mystery Liquid that contained DEET and other bad shit. WMDs WMDs!

Turned out it was mosquito repellant.

Sad thing though is that this will once again pull the wool over the eyes of their flock of sheep, and will hear the wingnuts going on and on about WMDs being found, until those of us on the left slap some reality into their happy asses.

And even sadder, these sheeple will fall for the same trick time and again.

Tempest in a teapot, yet again.

SAID it was today.


(Do I really need the dripping sarcasm smiley?...Nah)

They are silly Bushbots.

and echo chamber. All the freepers with their new proud talking points... I'm sure Santorum put in calls to Fox and Rush et. al. before his little stunt press conference to be sure they backed him up and treated this as breaking news.

They have no cred, other than for a few extremists who love to be misinformed.

We should all understand that this bunch of radicals is becoming more and more fringe . The World is laughing at them .

Today I was checking my sanity at hearing rick santoriun claim that wmd had been found and it was for sure that more would be found. I'm ashamed to admit he is from Pa. As bad as Casey is, he will certainly be better then tricky ricky. He better have a plan to stay in Virginia as i'm sure they don't want him back in Penn Hills.
