SO DO YOU GET IT? IT'S NOT BIASED. There's no agenda, just getting the truth out. It's a great article on the Presidents State of the Union campaign speech: http://www.prospect.org/webfeatures/2004/01/special-r-01-22.html
What the president said about Weapons of Mass Destruction: "We are seeking all the facts. Already the Kay Report identified dozens of weapons of mass destruction-related program activities and significant amounts of equipment that Iraq concealed from the United Nations. Had we failed to act, the dictator's weapons of mass destruction programs would continue to this day."
The facts: In nearly 10 months, " not a single item has been found in Iraq from a long and classified intelligence list of weapons of mass destruction." David Kay reported that we have not uncovered evidence that Iraq undertook steps to build nuclear weapons or produce fissile material." He also said there has not been evidence of "mobile biological production efforts" and that "Iraq did not have a large, ongoing, centrally controlled chemical weapons program after 1991."
