Ok...so I stopped reading this thread somewhere in the 3rd page because it got so childish...but here's my take. First of all, the shell they found was rather small and they're not even sure if it did, in fact, contain sarin gas. In my book that doesn't qualify as a weapon of MASS destruction. Perhaps mediocre distruction. I have no doubt in my mind that even if the ordinance they found doesn't have sarin, they'll say it does...or that the tests are inaccurate or some horseshit like that. Secondly, everyone involved has said that the shell was quite old. I have no doubts that Iraq has engineered such weapons in the past...but so have we as well as dozens of other countries and we've shown just as much of a lack of control when it comes to uses of force as any dictatorial regime. The entire basis for our invasion was that weapons were STILL being made. Now...show me evidence of that and we'll call it a day. I don't see the big deal about WMDs in the first place...the U.S. has what I'm sure is the largest stockpile of nuclear (or in Bushspeak: "nucular") weapons in the world and we've proved that we're completely irresponsible. Instead of imposing our will on other nations perhaps we should focus on the massive domestic problems we've got.

As for anyone moronic enough to think the KKK EVER ran the US (from a few pages back), please go read a history book. Yes, they had influence, they even had many people in elected office. But that's the nice thing about elected office...EVERYONE gets to vote. Klansmen alone voting wouldn't put a man into office so surely other people were voting. And just because it's called the Invisible Empire don't for a second think these backwoods retards are a "secret society". Most of them will gladly boast about what they do. So no, they've never had any direct influence on how this country was run hence they never ran the country. You want someone to blame? Blame your grandparents and great grandparents for allowing such things to take place. After all, this is a democracy...you don't like how things are going, change them.
