bush's real agenda

"Although we have not found stockpiles of weapons of mass destruction, we were right to go into Iraq ... We removed a declared enemy of America who had the capability of producing weapons of mass murder and could have passed that capability to terrorists bent on acquiring them."--bush, July 12, 2004, Oak Ridge, Tennessee

Note the underlying premises here:
"...declared enemy..."   By whom?  bush?
"...capability of producing weapons of mass murder..."  Guess the nuclear club is getting bigger all the time:  US, UK, France, Russia (and who knows how many former Soviet republics), France ("cheese-eating surrender monkeys"), China, India, Pakistan, South Africa, Israel, North Korea, Iran--did I leave anyone out?
"...could have passed that capability to terrorists ..."  My god, how many conditionals does it take to start a war?

As James Galbraith said in Salon, "Remarkably, Bush's cataclysmic sentence was reported respectfully in our press instead of being widely singled out for what it is: prime evidence of a lethal contempt for reason. Plainly, a man prepared to overthrow foreign governments by force on the strength of such arguments is unlikely, on the face of it, to have deep respect for the democratic process in his own."
