It's a long read, but it basically blows away any claim that the administration can make in defense of its blatant campaign of misinformation regarding alleged Iraqi WMD programs.

I don't know how to really make this into a discussion as opposed to a "here's a link. bye." post. The WMD issue has already been beaten to death in numerous threads. Everyone seems to be sticking to his own guns: you have the libs crying foul that our entire basis for invasion was a lie; you have some neocons saying that there were a million other reasons for invading anyway, so wmd had nothing to do with it (yeah f**ing right). and then you have people that refuse to believe that iraq was harmless, or at least nowhere near the threat it was made out to be by the hawks.

at least that last group has no argument anymore.
