Answer 1

Because the media is a Lib run business and they wouldn't want that to get out.



Good news doesn't spark debate like reporting bad things do.





I get the feeling that Bush has been sitting back and chuckling the whole time watching the Libs give themselves just enough rope to do the deed themselves...they have dome a pretty good job of it too.



I not a Dem or Republican, but the past year or two I have seen the true colors of the Dems and do not want to be associated with that at all.

Answer 2

It has hit the mainstream media.



It's not a very big story because, according to a Fox news report, "a senior Defense Department official pointed out that the chemical weapons were not in useable condition. 'This does not reflect a capacity that was built up after 1991,' the official said, adding the munitions 'are not the WMDs this country and the rest of the world believed Iraq had, and not the WMDs for which this country went to war.' "



The Washington Post reported that "the U.S. military announced in 2004 in Iraq that several crates of the old shells had been uncovered and that they contained a blister agent that was no longer active." It said the shells "had been buried near the Iranian border, and then long forgotten, by Iraqi troops during their eight-year war with Iran, which ended in 1988."



The Sunday Herald said that, "reports by the US Senate's committee on banking, housing and urban affairs – which oversees American exports policy – reveal that the US, under the successive administrations of Ronald Reagan and George Bush, sold materials including anthrax, VX nerve gas, West Nile fever germs and botulism to Iraq right up until March 1992," which may be another reason why the story is only being played up by Senator Santorum, who is up for re-election this year.

Answer 3

Have you heard anything about these so called WMD's?

They are old mustard gas which is completely unuseable and has been for 10-15 years. This mustard gas was buried during the time that Saddam Hussein got rid of his chemical weapons (thats why they were underground). It is also in small amounts and even if it wasn't expired, it would only afeect 2 or 3 people (your missing the M in WMD). These weapons are also weapons that the US sold to Hussein in the 80's. The reason we were able to find them is becuase we knew where they were becuase we had sold them. The reason this was not big on the news was becuase t was not a significant and did not qualify as WMD's. Thats like accusing someone of being a terrorist becase they have an old flintlock from 200 years ago in their house.

Answer 4

I'm sorry; you are mistaken. The only so-called WMD's that were found in Iraq were some old containers of Seren nerve gas. The united states sold this nerve gas to Iraq during the Iran/Iraq war. However, these containers were quite old and this gas breaks down over time. These were about as dangerous as getting attacked with cans of RAID bug spray. Other reports of "mobile weapons" labs turned out to be portable outhouses. I'm sorry but there has never been a credible discovery of true WMD's no matter what type of spin the white house, top republicans, and fox news try to put on it.

Answer 5

Quick! Get the the president on the line.

Hey, Mr President This is Jack Bauer. The found WMDs in Iraq.

Dork.

Answer 6

Do not believe it.



If it were true believe it, ... it would be a front page story...Bush would make sure it was posted for all to read. He needs this justification more than anything else in the world.



So do not believe WMD's were found in Iraq.



Just ain't so...

Answer 7

I have heard it mentioned by Sean Hannity and Michael Savage. I don't expect to hear it the network news because Bush would get credit. I don't think Bush cares because he is right anyway.

Answer 8

a sturdy prerequisite interior the political talk board right here's in basic terms to analyze beforehand you talk particularly than in basic terms parrot Pelosi/reid regime rhetoric. first, Richard Butler, un chief observer obviously and convincingly debunked the liberal knee jerk reaction of the "no wmd" arguments. next, coverage had ALREADY BEEN MADE as to the Obama decision to lie about the homicide and coverup in Benghazi. that created the talking factors and the concept that indirectly homicide by skill of wicked indifference by skill of a sitting president and secretary of state obviously DOES count for those those who've a wide wide awake about the bright lack of ethics and honesty right here. if all of us "knew" thata the Benghazi assaults were separate, why have Susan Rice lie about it and why have 4 diplomats killed by skill of ordering the seals to "stand down"? Fjnally, liberal, all of us have not something from an administration that caters to mendacity and coverup, and indirectly because "George Bush must have executed something worse" obviously would not excuse homicide. I even haven't any project in not attempting to rewrite history. the perception is to not have Obama do it to what ever matches him and the "honest". in final i'd somewhat favor to thanks for this rant/submit. "reviews" like this, even as left unchecked graphically and vividly illustrate the bright favor to vote conservative more suitable than I or the different operating amiercan ought to ever do. wow....GEORGE BUSH....thanks for the snigger to commence my day. I kept wondering about the genuine value of a minimum of "some" originality even as making a life excuse.

Answer 9

Dont know if it is really true but if so its because its something positive and it would show that all the news agencies were wrong.

Answer 10

bawhwhahahahaahhaa



4 years later....

Answer 11

You're worried about mustard gas when North Korea has nukes?



Yeah, thanks George Dubya for keeping me safe from the REAL threats.

Answer 12

Be back soon.

Answer 13
