Atrios notes that today is Colin Powell Day.
The fourth anniversary of his speech before the U.N. in which he swore up and down that Saddam had those WMDs.
If only he'd presented the real evidence of terrorism, maybe we wouldn't be in the fix we're in now.


Now THAT's proof!

Perhaps if Saddam didn't try so hard to make himself look so powerful and threatingly deadly, he wouldn't have stretch marks on his neck.
Sad to say, the whole world fell for it, not just the Bush administration.
If a madman waves a fake pistol and the cops shoot him - it is not the fault of the cops - they read the threat correctly even though there was never a real threat. To act as if everything might be fake is suicide. Bush did the right thing for what now in hindsight seem all the wrong reasons.

If you read the reports that were available but made just a wee bit harder to find (Scott Ritter, for example), you'd have known as I did the administration was lying.
And they haven't stopped ...
Just like now.
