So we went to war over insignificant weapons of mass destruction?
Heavens to Betsy, the wrigglin' that Powell feller can do! So yesterday I ran this quote from a videotape made in early 2001:
"He (Saddam Hussein) has not developed any significant capability with respect to weapons of mass destruction."
and today he says:
"You'll note that I did not say that he didn't have weapons of mass destruction. . . . "
Durn! A loopy hole. I guess he got away again.
Let's see if we can nab ole' Condi Rice: From early 2001:
"We are able to keep his arms from him. His military forces have not been rebuilt."
today:
"... we began to get important reporting, for instance, on the fact that, in 1998, Saddam Hussein was diverting maybe $500 million in illegal funds from oil revenue by the period of 2002, not -- $3 billion in illegal revenue."
Oh no! My heads a-spinnin' with all those figures and the confusing way they're presented. We'll never catch that wascally Condi now!
