UN Inspectors prove that Bush Did Not Lie

How is the Democratic Underground going to spin this?

The United Nations has determined that Saddam Hussein shipped weapons of mass destruction components as well as medium-range ballistic missiles before, during and after the U.S.-led war against Iraq in 2003.

The UN Monitoring, Verification and Inspection Commission briefed the Security Council on new findings that could help trace the whereabouts of Saddam's missile and WMD program.

The briefing contained satellite photographs that demonstrated the speed with which Saddam dismantled his missile and WMD sites before and during the war. Council members were shown photographs of a ballistic missile site outside Baghdad in May 2003, and then saw a satellite image of the same location in February 2004, in which facilities had disappeared. (emphasis mine)

I think the Commissar gave up on waiting for Kos and Atrios to even mention the Sarin weapon - I'm sure they'll ignore this too (along with the rest of the liberals in the world). It doesn't "fit" their world view, they must therefore not acknowledge it exists. *G*

Nah, Teresa - they'll note it. What they'll ignore is that it was found "when it never existed" and natter on endlessly about how "it has been dispersed and is no longer under any control".

In other words, Bush is damned for lying about there being any WMD and is also guilty of allowing the non-existant WMD to be spread to the four winds. Both offenses occuring simultaneously and impeachable offenses for which he should resign, immediately - and Cheney, and Hastert. I suspect they would demand resignations until some democrat could possibly take the job.

Anyway, they will convict him of both, in the same breath.

And their heads won't explode. That's the part that gets me. Even Fembots heads explode when confronted with a paradox...
