Default Re: WMDs and Bush - Lie or mistake?

Haven't read everything yet, so I don't know if this has been stated, but Bush said, and I quote: "We've found the weapons of mass destruction" to Polish television. I would say that amounts to a lie. Cheney also said there was "no doubt" that Iraq had wmd. Anyone that actually paid attention during the build up knows that there was some doubt. I know we'll never be able to convince those that still support Bush, but come on guys, at least admit that they were less than fully honest.

Not that I don't believe you (I do), but could you link to a reputable source with the quote "We've found the weapons of mass destruction"? That seems indefensible.

Q But, still, those countries who didn't support the Iraqi Freedom operation use the same argument, weapons of mass destruction haven't been found. So what argument will you use now to justify this war?

THE PRESIDENT: We found the weapons of mass destruction. We found biological laboratories. You remember when Colin Powell stood up in front of the world, and he said, Iraq has got laboratories, mobile labs to build biological weapons. They're illegal. They're against the United Nations resolutions, and we've so far discovered two. And we'll find more weapons as time goes on. But for those who say we haven't found the banned manufacturing devices or banned weapons, they're wrong, we found them.
