More claims of the american taliban (bush and his born-again chronies) are getting washed down the toilet, together with the promise of finding WMDs.
American soldiers are being killed by Iraqi sniper bullets at an ever accelerating rate. The very people Governor Bush claimed to be liberating are suddenly, and oh so unexpectedly, turning against the liberators. Ooops, there goes the ‘we’re there to liberate the iraqi people’ justification. Or are they shooting the ‘liberators’ just because they’re so misguided and ignorant? Or wait, whats that word the righteous like to use… evil?

It is really quite simple. The peace movement was right.
We said that Iraq was no threat and we were right. We said that this war was about oil, and we were right. We said that American soldiers wouldn’t be welcomed by the Iraqis anymore than they liked Saddam, and we were right. We said that tax payer dollars would be better off used creating jobs for Americans rather than bombing innocent people, and… we were right. We said so many things against the war, and on every single point, we were right.
Oh wait, so now you decide to look into the validity of the ‘evidence’ we have said all long did not exist?
