*****. You haven't an ounce of evidence to back up that claim.
You're a liar for Bush.

That's what the experts believe right now.

Nonsense.

"If Saddam rejects peace and we have to use force, our purpose is
clear. We
want to seriously diminish the threat posed by Iraq's weapons of mass
destruction program."
--President Bill Clinton, Feb. 17, 1998


"Iraq is a long way from [here], but what happens there matters a great
deal
here. For the risks that the leaders of a rogue state will use nuclear,

chemical or biological weapons against us or our allies is the greatest

security threat we face."
--Madeline Albright, Feb 18, 1998


"He will use those weapons of mass destruction again, as he has ten
times
since 1983."
--Sandy Berger, Clinton National Security Adviser, Feb, 18, 1998


"[W]e urge you, after consulting with Congress, and consistent with the
U.S.
Constitution and laws, to take necessary actions (including, if
appropriate,
air and missile strikes on suspect Iraqi sites) to respond effectively
to
the threat posed by Iraq's refusal to end its weapons of mass

programs."
Letter to President Clinton, signed by:
-- Democratic Senators Carl Levin, Tom Daschle, John Kerry, and others,

"Saddam Hussein has been engaged in the development of weapons of mass
destruction technology which is a threat to countries in the region and
he
has made a mockery of the weapons inspection process."
-Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D, CA), Dec. 16, 1998


"Hussein has ... chosen to spend his money on building weapons of mass
destruction and palaces for his cronies."
-- Madeline Albright, Clinton Secretary of State, Nov. 10, 1999


"There is no doubt that ... Saddam Hussein has reinvigorated his
weapons
programs. Reports indicate that biological, chemical and nuclear
programs
continue apace and may be back to pre-Gulf War status. In addition,
Saddam
continues to redefine delivery systems and is doubtless using the cover
of a
licit missile program to develop longer-range missiles that will
threaten
the United States and our allies."
Letter to President Bush, Signed by:
-- Sen. Bob Graham (D, FL), and others, Dec 5, 2001


"We begin with the common belief that Saddam Hussein is a tyrant and a
threat to the peace and stability of the region. He has ignored the
mandate
of the United Nations and is building weapons of mass destruction and
th! e
means of delivering them."
-- Sen. Carl Levin (D, MI), Sept. 19, 2002


"We know that he has stored secret supplies of biological and chemical
weapons throughout his country."
-- Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002


"Iraq's search for weapons of mass destruction has proven impossible to

deter and we should assume that it will continue for as long as Saddam
is in
power."
-- Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002


"We have known for many years that Saddam Hussein is seeking and
developing
weapons of mass destruction."
-- Sen. Ted Kennedy (D, MA), Sept. 27, 2002


"The last UN weapons inspectors left Iraq in October of 1998. We are
confident that Saddam Hussein retains some stockpiles of chemical and
biological weapons, and that he has since embarked on a crash course to

build up his chemical and biological warfare capabilities. Intelligence

reports indicate that he is seeking nuclear weapons..."
-- Sen. Robert Byrd (D, WV), Oct. 3, 2002


"I will be voting to give the President of the United States the
authority
to use force -- if necessary -- to disarm Saddam Hussein because I
believe
that a deadly arsenal of weapons of mass destruction in his hands is a
real
and grave threat to our security."
-- Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Oct. 9, 2002


"There is unmistakable evidence that Saddam Hussein is working
aggressively
to develop nuclear weapons and will likely have nuclear weapons within
the
next five years ... We also should remember we have always
underestimated
the progress Saddam has made in development of weapons of mass
destruction."
-- Sen. Jay Rockefeller (D, WV), Oct 10, 2002


"He has systematically violated, over the course of the past 11 years,
every
significant UN resolution that has demanded that he disarm and destroy
his
chemical and biological weapons, and any nuclear capacity. This he has
refused to do"
-- Rep. Henry Waxman (D, CA), Oct. 10, 2002


"In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show
that
Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological
weapons
stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program. He has
also
given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including al Qaeda
members
... It is clear, however, that if left unchecked, Saddam Hussein will
continue to increase his capacity to wage biological and chemical
warfare,
and will keep trying to develop nuclear weapons."
-- Sen. Hillary Clinton (D, NY), Oct 10, 2002


"We are in possession of what I think to be compelling evidence that
Saddam
Hussein has, and has had for a number of years, a developing capacity
for
the production and storage of weapons of mass destruction."
-- Sen. Bob Graham (D, FL), Dec. 8, 2002


"Without question, we need to disarm Saddam Hussein. He is a brutal,
murderous dictator, leading an oppressive regime ... He presents a
particularly grievous threat because he is so consistently prone to
miscalculation ... And now he is miscalculating America's response to
his
continued deceit and his consistent grasp for weapons of mass
destruction
... So the threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is

real..."
-- Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Jan. 23. 2003


"This December will mark three years since United Nations inspectors
last
visited Iraq. There is no doubt that since that time, Saddam Hussein
has
reinvigorated his weapons programs. Reports indicate that biological,
chemical and nuclear programs continue apace and may be back to
pre-Gulf War
status. In addition, Saddam continues to refine delivery systems and is

doubtless using the cover of a licit missile program to develop longer-

range missiles that will threaten the United States and our allies." --
From
a December 6, 2001 letter signed by Bob Graham, Joe Lieberman, Harold
Ford,
& Tom Lantos among others


"Saddam's goal ... is to achieve the lifting of U.N. sanctions while
retaining and enhancing Iraq's weapons of mass destruction programs. We

cannot, we must not and we will not let him succeed." -- Madeline
Albright,
1998


"Iraq made commitments after the Gulf War to completely dismantle all
weapons of mass destruction, and unfortunately, Iraq has not lived up
to its
agreement." -- Barbara Boxer, November 8, 2002


"The last UN weapons inspectors left Iraq in October of 1998. We are
confident that Saddam Hussein retained some stockpiles of chemical and
biological weapons, and that he has since embarked on a crash course to

build up his chemical and biological warfare capability. Intelligence
reports also indicate that he is seeking nuclear weapons, but has not
yet
achieved nuclear capability." -- Robert Byrd, October 2002


"What is at stake is how to answer the potential threat Iraq represents
with
the risk of proliferation of WMD. Baghdad's regime did use such weapons
in
the past. Today, a number of evidences may lead to think that, over the
past
four years, in the absence of international inspectors, this country
has
continued armament programs." -- Jacques Chirac, October 16, 2002


"The community of nations may see more and more of the very kind of
threat
Iraq poses now: a rogue state with weapons of mass destruction, ready
to use
them or provide them to terrorists. If we fail to respond today, Saddam
and
all those who would follow in his footsteps will be emboldened
tomorrow." --
Bill Clinton in 1998


"In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show
that
Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological
weapons
stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program. He has
also
given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including Al Qaeda
members,
though there is apparently no evidence of his involvement in the
terrible
events of September 11, 2001. It is clear, however, that if left
unchecked,
Saddam Hussein will continue to increase his capacity to wage
biological and
chemical warfare, and will keep trying to develop nuclear weapons.
Should he
succeed in that endeavor, he could alter the political and security
landscape of the Middle East, which as we know all too well affects
American
security." -- Hillary Clinton, October 10, 2002


"I am absolutely convinced that there are weapons...I saw evidence back
in
1998 when we would see the inspectors being barred from gaining entry
into a
warehouse for three hours with trucks rolling up and then moving those
trucks out." -- Clinton's Secretary of Defense William Cohen in April
of
2003


"Iraq is not the only nation in the world to possess weapons of mass
destruction, but it is the only nation with a leader who has used them
against his own people." -- Tom Daschle in 1998


"Saddam Hussein's regime represents a grave threat to America and our
allies, including our vital ally, Israel. For more than two decades,
Saddam
Hussein has sought weapons of mass destruction through every available
means. We know that he has chemical and biological weapons. He has
already
used them against his neighbors and his own people, and is trying to
build
more. We know that he is doing everything he can to build nuclear
weapons,
and we know that each day he gets closer to achieving that goal." --
John
Edwards, Oct 10, 2002


"I share the administration's goals in dealing with Iraq and its
weapons of
mass destruction." -- ***** Gephardt in September of 2002


"Iraq does pose a serious threat to the stability of the Persian Gulf
and we
should organize an international coalition to eliminate his access to
weapons of mass destruction. Iraq's search for weapons of mass
destruction
has proven impossible to completely deter and we should assume that it
will
continue for as long as Saddam is in power." -- Al Gore, 2002


"We are in possession of what I think to be compelling evidence that

"Over the years, Iraq has worked to develop nuclear, chemical and
biological
weapons. During 1991 - 1994, despite Iraq's denials, U.N. inspectors
discovered and dismantled a large network of nuclear facilities that
Iraq
was using to develop nuclear weapons. Various reports indicate that
Iraq is
still actively pursuing nuclear weapons capability. There is no reason
to
think otherwise. Beyond nuclear weapons, Iraq has actively pursued
biological and chemical weapons.U.N. inspectors have said that Iraq's
claims
about biological weapons is neither credible nor verifiable. In 1986,
Iraq
used chemical weapons against Iran, and later, against its own Kurdish
population. While weapons inspections have been successful in the past,

there have been no inspections since the end of 1998. There can be no
doubt
that Iraq has continued to pursue its goal of obtaining weapons of mass

destruction." -- Patty Murray, October 9, 2002


"As a member of the House Intelligence Committee, I am keenly aware
that the
proliferation of chemical and biological weapons is an issue of grave
importance to all nations. Saddam Hussein has been engaged in the
development of weapons of mass destruction technology which is a threat
to
countries in the region and he has made a mockery of the weapons
inspection
process." -- Nancy Pelosi, December 16, 1998


"Even today, Iraq is not nearly disarmed. Based on highly credible
intelligence, UNSCOM [the U.N. weapons inspectors] suspects that Iraq
still
has biological agents like anthrax, botulinum toxin, and clostridium
perfringens in sufficient quantity to fill several dozen bombs and
ballistic
missile warheads, as well as the means to continue manufacturing these
deadly agents. Iraq probably retains several tons of the highly toxic
VX
substance, as well as sarin nerve gas and mustard gas. This agent is
stored
in artillery shells, bombs, and ballistic missile warheads. And Iraq
retains
significant dual-use industrial infrastructure that can be used to
rapidly
reconstitute large-scale chemical weapons production." -- Ex-Un Weapons

Inspector Scott Ritter in 1998


"There is unmistakable evidence that Saddam Hussein is working
aggressively
to develop nuclear weapons and will likely have nuclear weapons within
the
next five years. And that may happen sooner if he can obtain access to
enriched uranium from foreign sources -- something that is not that
difficult in the current world. We also should remember we have always
underestimated the progress Saddam has made in development of weapons
of
mass destruction." -- John Rockefeller, Oct 10, 2002


"Saddam's existing biological and chemical weapons capabilities pose a
very
real threat to America, now. Saddam has used chemical weapons before,
both
against Iraq's enemies and against his own people. He is working to
develop
delivery systems like missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles that could
bring
these deadly weapons against U.S. forces and U.S. facilities in the
Middle
East." -- John Rockefeller, Oct 10, 2002


"Whether one agrees or disagrees with the Administration's policy
towards
Iraq, I don't think there can be any question about Saddam's conduct.
He has
systematically violated, over the course of the past 11 years, every
significant UN resolution that has demanded that he disarm and destroy
his
chemical and biological weapons, and any nuclear capacity. This he has
refused to do. He lies and cheats; he snubs the mandate and authority
of
international weapons inspectors; and he games the system to keep
buying
time against enforcement of the just and legitimate demands of the
United
Nations, the Security Council, the United States and our allies. Those
are
simply the facts." -- Henry Waxman, Oct 10, 2002
