No one has bothered to touch this one in its own thread so I figured I would post it here. It goes to show just how the liberals lie and twist things when something is not going there way…

What the liberals are "really" saying about Iraq

Senator John F. Kerry (liberal democrat):

“Without question, we need to disarm Saddam Hussein. He is a brutal, murderous dictator, leading an oppressive regime…
He presents a particularly grievous threat because he is so consistently prone to miscalculation…
And now he is miscalculating America’s response to his continued deceit and his consistent grasp for weapons of mass destruction…
So the threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is real…”
Jan. 23, 2003

“I will be voting to give the President of the United States the authority to use force, if necessary, to disarm Saddam Hussein because I believe that a deadly arsenal of weapons of mass destruction in his hands is a real and grave threat to our security.”
Oct. 9, 2002

Senator Ted Kennedy (liberal democrat)

“We have known for many years that Saddam Hussein is seeking and developing weapons of mass destruction.”
Sept. 27, 2002

Madeleine Albright, Clinton Secretary of State (liberal democrat)

“Hussein has chosen to spend his money on building weapons of mass destruction and palaces for his cronies.”
Nov. 10, 1999

“Iraq is a long way from here, but what happens there matters a great deal here. For the risks that the leaders of a rogue state will use nuclear, chemical or biological weapons against us or our allies is the greatest security threat we face.”
Feb 18, 1998

Senator Hillary Clinton (liberal democrat)

“In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program. He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including al Qaeda members. It is clear, however, that if left unchecked, Saddam Hussein will continue to increase his capacity to wage biological and chemical warfare, and will keep trying to develop nuclear weapons.”
Oct. 10, 2002

Ex Vice President Al Gore (liberal democrat)
“Iraq’s search for weapons of mass destruction has proven impossible to completely deter and we should assume that it will continue for as long as Saddam is in power.”
Sept. 23, 2002

“We know that he has stored secret supplies of biological and chemical weapons throughout his country.”
Sept. 23, 2002


Prior to 9/11


Ex President Clinton (liberal democrat)

“If Saddam rejects peace and we have to use force, our purpose is clear. We want to seriously diminish the threat posed by Iraq’s weapons of mass destruction program.”
Feb. 4 1998

“One way or the other, we are determined to deny Iraq the capacity to develop weapons of mass destruction and the missiles to deliver them. That is our bottom line.”
Feb. 4 1998

Letter to President Clinton, signed by Senators Carl Levin, Tom Daschle, John F. Kerry and others

“We urge you, after consulting with Congress, and consistent with the U.S. Constitution and laws, to take necessary actions (including, if appropriate, air and missile strikes on suspect Iraqi sites) to respond effectively to the threat posed by Iraq’s refusal to end its weapons of mass destruction programs.”
Oct. 9 1998


So, any liberals care to respond and tell me what has change? Don’t bother I will tell you what changed NOTHING, except there is a republican President in the white house instead of a liberal democrat…

 

I started reading the article and realized right away that the premise was invalid. Vietnam and Watergate references are just liberal attempts at character assassination. Unfortunately, there are a lot of lazy people in this country, that would rather have some feel good policy worshiping leftist, do their thinking for them. If you tell the same lie enough times, you start to believe it. Once you believe it, you stand a good chance of influencing the weak minded folk to go along with you. This is nothing but a political witch-hunt being perpetrated by the Party that stands for absolutely nothing, but increasing their power base at any cost.

The Democrats are going to be the downfall of what this nation has always been about. Hell, half the country doesn't have a clue what that is anymore already.

 

Nice job doing your homework Burt, looks like you brought both barrels to the table.

 

And then some...
