Did Bu$h just lie again.
Inthe USA Today article "DeLay: Bush credibility issue overblown": "Bush said the United States is working overtime to prove Saddam Hussein was developing weapons of mass destruction before the United States invaded Iraq."

If I'm not mistaken I read a couple of weeks ago that efforts to find WMD were slowing down.

1. The new lie is the war was because of WMD PROGRAMS
Not WMD's themselves.

I figure they've realized there were no WMDs and haven't been for about 5 years so now they figure they can find some kind of evidence to pass off as WMD programs (not actually WMDs but they kinda sorta wanted WMDs) and everything will be okay.

2. Programs
They're looking for programs. Oh and terrorists, connections to terrorists.

And lines in the sand... to tell them which way the weapons went.

but that is the new unpaid overtime, so really they are just standing around with their thumbs up their asses.
You would think that overtime is a word that Bush would not want to use right now.

7. I think 'United States' is code
for Bush Administration. And they probably are working overtime, but to cover their asses, not find weapons.

8. When he went to Qatar...
He asked Bremer if he was in charge of the search, then someone else (Franks?) When they finally found out the name of who was in charge of looking for wmd, turns out it was someone stateside at that point.

He didn't even *know* who was responsible for finding them.

9. I'm telling you they knew there were no
wmds. The plan was to take advantage of the expected Al-Quaeda-Hussein linkup. Unfortunately for them, it didn't happen. Now they have to spin the no wmd problem.
