Iraq.......again

Link here


MR. RUSSERT: I want to go back to 2002, because it’s important as to what people were saying then and what the American people were hearing.

Here’s Joe Biden about Saddam Hussein: “He’s a long term threat and a short term threat to our national security.”

“We have no choice but to eliminate the threat. This is a guy who is an extreme danger to the world.”
“He must be dislodged from his weapons or dislodged from power.” You were emphatic about that.

MR. RUSSERT: Where are they?

SEN. BIDEN: Well, the point is, it turned out they didn’t, but everyone in the world thought he had them.

The weapons inspectors said he had them. He catalogued—they catalogued them. This was not some, some Cheney, you know, pipe dream. This was, in fact, catalogued. They looked at them and catalogued. What he did with them, who knows? The real mystery is, if he, if he didn’t have any of them left, why didn’t he say so? Well, a lot of people say if he had said that, he would’ve, you know, emboldened Iran and so on and so forth.

Again… Biden was for the war–
He just didn’t want to finish it.
But, that was back in 2007.
Today Vice President Joe Biden said the Iraq War wasn’t worth it.

Powell Presents U.S. Evidence To Security Council; More

Wednesday, February 05, 2003
U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell this morning made a multimedia presentation at the Security Council of what he called "facts and conclusions based on solid intelligence" that Iraq is deceiving U.N. weapons inspectors and is hiding prohibited weapons of mass destruction.
In a presentation lasting an hour and 20 minutes, Powell played audiotapes, showed satellite photos and quoted intelligence reports that he said demonstrate "an active and systematic effort by the Iraqi regime to keep key materials and individuals" from inspectors.

Kliphnote:
Everyone in the world said Iraq had WMD's, including Powell and Biden.
But Bush lied about it. Why is that?
I am getting fed up with the left wing nut cases.
