From here.

And btw, that MSNBC headline "Afghan Leader Blasts U.S.?" Sounds bad, doesn't it. Here's the actual quote from the article:

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/13473386/

KABUL, Afghanistan - Afghan President Hamid Karzai urged the international community to reassess its approach to the war on terror Thursday, saying the deaths of hundreds of Afghans in fighting with U.S.-led forces was “not acceptable.”


Wow, quite the blast.

Will anyone on the left acknowledge WMDs have been found in Iraq?

I won't until someone on the right does. Rummy himself said no WMD found.
Of course, most of those weapons were buried by Iraqi troops during their eight-year war with Iran — which ended in 1988 — and were long forgotten.

The military announced in 2004 that several crates of the old shells containing a blister agent that was no longer active had been discovered, but the military, White House and CIA didn't consider the shells evidence of what was alleged by the Bush administration to be a current Iraqi program to make chemical, biological and nuclear weapons, the Post reported. Wednesday night, intelligence officials reaffirmed that the shells were not the suspected WMDs sought in the 2003 invasion of Iraq and were, for the most part, not in useable condition.

(emphasis mine)
Oh look, no one thinks we have, cept people who read/watch Fox News. Damn that biased MSM.

Simmer down now.

I made the post before all of the pre-1991 stuff was revealed. Doesn't make it any less illegal, but, indeed, "these aren't the WMD's you're looking for."

Now, the next time you claim I never admit to beng mistaken, Unk, I get to slap your stubbly face.

Congratulations!

You proved that there is bias in the media and that Fox News is way out of sync with any other media outlet.

Got any more dead horses to beat?

We're getting hit daily with spam versus how many guest posters with legit statements and not just politically biased bullshit that they never back up with fact, nor show back up to defend?

Make 'em register, just add an explanation why.

I assume you went to the ib user forums... did you look in the "hacks" sections? That's where I figured I'd find that functionality. Some user add-on "hack."

Yeah, I looked through two different places that had tons of hacks. Nothing that looked like it to me.
