You will need a great deal more excrement than this to cover up the piles of bones being exhumed from mass graves filled by Saddam.

And it has become > increasingly clear that the selling of the war with Iraq was no different. > > For example, look at the way the administration rhetorically linked Saddam > to Sept. 11. As The Associated Press put it: "The implication from Bush on > down was that Saddam supported Osama bin Laden's network. Iraq and the > Sept. 11 attacks frequently were mentioned in the same sentence, even > though officials have no good evidence of such a link." > > Or look at the affair of the infamous "germ warfare" trailers. I don't know > whether those trailers were intended to produce bioweapons or merely to > inflate balloons, as the Iraqis claim - a claim supported by a number of > outside experts.
