1. i can see them now, saying "but that would be WRONG"

yeah, right.

[rockymountaindem]

2. My friend said before the war

"Trust me, they'll 'find' WMD, even if there aren't any there right now." That's coming from a self-proclaimed conservative. He's not one of the brainwashed ones though. However, I'm trying to convince him that since he and I agree 60% of the time he's actually a liberal. He's ABB, but still says the GOP can be fixed. I'm workin' on him...

On edit:

Aren't they a little late in planting the evidence since Lay already said that there weren't any in Iraq? Seems to me that they should have done this about the same time as the Saddam capture.

[acmavm]

3. What I can't imagine is that they WON'T try it. In fact, I imagine that's

just one of the little 'surprises' they have up their sleeves for late in the election campaign.

[maggrwaggr]

4. at this point they'll do it just to spite Kay

nt

[Pobeka]

5. I flip/flop on that. * was so delusional he thought WMD existed.

He's such an ignorant, stupid, self righteous misfit, that he didn't set up initially to plant WMD, because he was *sure* Saddam was doing all that bad stuff, despite the inspections.

Failure to find any WMD immediately caught them completely by surprise.

Now, it's kinda tough to smuggle in millions of pounds, thousands of tons of WMD without the fog of war for cover. But politically, it's what he must do to have a chance a re-election.
