    Hmm, more like the place Cheney and Bush pulled the WMDs from.

    Just like when Kennedy, Gore, Clintons, Edwards, Kerry, the UN, Saddam himself etc etc stated Saddam had WMD’s. Sarin gas and yellowcake are WMD’s. Get over yourself.

    ^ And of course you will provide us a link to see the video evidence of your claim.

    “the threat posed by Iraq’s refusal to end its weapons of mass destruction programs.” — From a letter signed by Joe Lieberman, Dianne Feinstein, Barbara A. Milulski, Tom Daschle, & John Kerry among others on October 9, 1998

    Sorry, I don’t have the video. But there’s a long page full of similar quotes at

    So the topic of the day is whether “the private sector is doing fine,” and the Libs respond “what about WMDs?!” I’m not sure whether you’re unable to focus, or simply unwilling to defend your president’s idiotic statement? For the record, do YOU think the private sector is doing fine?

    “do YOU think the private sector is doing fine?”
    It was a gaffe, just like the ones Romney makes. I’m more concerned about the bald-faced lies of the RNC:


    " 3-1/2 years of job-destroying tax hikes, overzealous regulation and out-of-control spending,..," quoting RNC chairman Reince Priebus.


    Maybe republicans are stupid enough to believe that, but anyone else can easily find the truth.

    The private sector IS doing better under Obama than it did under W. But rich companies do not hire workers unless there’s a market. And the market COULD come from public sector employment. Obama knows how to fix the economy, but the GOP is blocking him. They’ll do it for Mitt immediately, because there is no other option; but it’ll come with vast giveaways to the wealthiest in America. Best to reduce the GOP blockage in the congress and senate.

    @Edward Tonry

    So your point here is that the rightwingers are now saying, “Ha ha; we fooled the Democrats into thinking Saddam has WMD.”


    Pyrrhic victory.

    We were there long enough to search ever grain of sand. Where are they?

    Just goes to show. Never trust a man named “curveball”.

    It wasn’t a “gaffe” it was a statement of fact in context with the rest of the statement that the “public sector” is worse off, and that overall things are NOT good, and we can do a lot better. (If he could just get a Congress to help, instead of hinder, any and all progress, instead of campaigning to “get him out”.)

    Yea that 550 tons of yellow cake urainium that was flown to Canada for fuel for their reactors didn’t really exsist did it?The same stuff Valery Plames husband
    Joe Wilson said Sadam didn’t have or try to get more of.Or the mustard and nerve gas in the Euphrates and Tigris rivers?What obout the tractor tralers set up to manufacture nerve gas?Or the chlorine and sarin gas artillery rounds used in some round side bombs?I guess there were no missles setup for chemical warheads over run on the way to Bagdad either?Why did the Iraqi’s have chemical warfare suits stashed at almost every school and mosque in many small towns on the road to Bagdad?What was in all those truck convoy’s to Syria just before and as the war started?Maybe you should talk to some of the troops that were actually there.

    Yeah, Democrats NEVER do whatever they can to stop a Republican president’s agenda. Do you ever think before you talk? Republicans just don’t want to be complicit with policies that are historical failures. “Help” according to you is giving-in to your idiot president’s continued failure.

    Ah, but after 9/11 anybody who disagreed with Bush/Cheney on ANYTHING was labeled a ‘Traitor Who Wants The Terrorists To Win’.

    Of course, now that Obama has presided over military actions that have taken out most of the leadership of al-Qaida, the GOP is labeling him a ‘Traitor Who Wants The Terrorists To Win’.

    The Narcissist’s comment really isn’t that big a deal. He notices only himself. Economies, world events and other stuff that are not of himself or adoring hollywood dopes of himself simply do not matter.

    Record corporate profits last year. Isn’t that the com[plete and total private sector?

    Hey, ‘Corporations are people, my friend!’.

    So, ‘the people are doing fine, aren’t they?
