2625 About those 500 WMD

Ho hum seemed to be the press' response. Here's an interesting observation at Evangelical Outpost by Joe Carter. Sort of what I'd thought even back in 2003. If they'd been found then, the anti-war people would have moved on to something else.

"Opposition to the war has nothing to do with the lack of WMDs. It never did. We could find a nuclear bomb in Uday Hussein’s old apartment and John Kerry would still be gearing up for Winter Soldier II. Unless you dropped your moral compass off the side of a swift boat in Cambodia, it’s easy to see that the world is safer because we secured the one WMD that truly mattered: Saddam Hussein.

More important than the weapons that were found (or that have yet to be found) are the ones that will never be created by Saddam’s regime. Many Americans, however, still suffer from the delusion that the only way that Saddam could have been a significant threat was for him to have possessed stockpiles of WMDs."

As the wife of a soldier watching the news can get really upsetting. Yesterday's stories about the press printing the info about watching bank accounts was just enraging. The BBC news had one of the reporters trying to justify himself and there was nothing that he could say that justified what they did...dispicable and traitorous.

What the press FAILS to report is all the people in Iraq who finally have power & safe water who are thrilled to have us there or how these same people are risking their lives to help catch the terrorists. Whatever happened to objective journalism?

Hi;

Nice blog and post!

What you said is absolutely true, Democrats and the Media will oppose anything that they think will advance the President. They ignore all the good we are accomplishing in Iraq, Afghanistan, and throughout the rest of the world. The media is reporting only one side of this war, and it is not our side they report on.

Thanks
