Um, yeah, but, uh, 550 metric tons really isn't, um, you know, a significant quantity of anything.

I'm in character. stremph July 8 2008, 21:57:05 UTC

I was being an ass.

Like Joe Wilson, who put the ASS in both "Ambassador" and "Embarassment."

Now that's fucking talent.

The AP is going to try to charge you for using their story....

Those last two paragraphs don't really belong in the article, but the AP just HAD to slap a little Bush Bashing in there.

Liberals will say that that Yellowcake doesn't count because it was sealed by the UN before the war.

which is of course why he was trying to buy more. Something that the lying ambassador's report actually proved, then he just lied about it to the world.

Yup, the CIA's whole plame operation that was aimed against the whitehouse was the only success they've had in over a decade. So what if they broke all sorts of laws along the way.

If I were president, there would suddenly be a LOT of vacancies in the State Department and the CIA.

I'm with you on that one, pal.

The actual reason for the 'yellow" cake was that it was meant for Saddam's 70th birthday party. YEah, they had not iced the cake yet but was keeping it on ice until then. But then the USA invaded before Saddam's scientists could put their plan into reality. They were going to poison Saddam with the "yellow cake" (w/chocolate icing & cyanide candles) and then take over the Iraqi government and declare a Republic using Constitution of the USA as a model for same. But that darn cowboy George Bush unwittingly ruined their plans with his order to invade. Oh well ...
