Getting Out

Who let Saddam’s goodies slip away? A critical choir. Plus: We’re all neocons now. A post-Newdow roundtable. And more.

(Page 3 of 10)

Washington Times . I challenge you — read the Washington Times for three months and then go back and read the Baltimore Sun . What you will find is the articles, commentary and editorials in the Sun are inseparable and none of them make a damn bit of sense. Ditto television news — just don’t watch the major networks — their entire agenda is to return the Democratic Socialist elite to power. It’s boycott time—who will go along? br> — W. G. Wheatley br> Worton, Maryland /p>

Everything Mr. Martinovich said is and should be in the mainstream media for all to see, BUT when the Bush administration was trying ever so hard to sell the war the public, they drilled into our collective brains that Iraq “HAS weapons of mass destruction,” they made it seem that these things were lying around the country-side waiting to be used. Mr. Colin Powell had the audacity to even claim that weapons were in the palm trees lining the Baghdad streets.

The weapons inspectors after the Gulf War repeatedly said that the weapons they did find back then were destroyed. If all these chemical and nuclear weapons and factories and people that produced these weapons were shipped out of the country, I’m sorry, but NO ONE NOTICED?? With the technology we have at our disposal, no one noticed this activity? Oh that’s right, our so-called technology also pinpointed weapons hidden in the palm trees.

p>So excuse us for thinking that his reasoning for going to war (remember…to disarm Saddam?) has been tainted since the invasion began over a year ago. If you’re brainwashed into thinking something is for real then that reality turns out to be not so real, then how can anyone ever believe what this Administration says? Reminds me of the USSR and the propaganda they used to shove into the faces of their citizens. Even after the 9/11 Commission posts its results, Bush and company will totally ignore their findings and still try to drum into our “American Idol-washed” brains that Saddam has weapons and that he was behind the terrorist attacks. Which reminds me, he also said there would be peace in the Middle East once Saddam is captured and “brought to justice.” Okay…still waiting for that “peace”.
