Wow. You spent HOW MANY WEEKS crowing about Wilson back then? (Boy, poor Josh took quite the hit, too, didn't he?) At some point, Ty, you start to sound like Kerry. "I thought Wilson was the smoking gun before I thought he was irrelevant"?

I am puzzled that you could have been thinking at the time that there was substantial doubt about whether we'd find WMD. As you said a few posts ago, "everyone" (?) thought they were there.
And you and I didn't have the evidence that Bush did. Hell, Kerry didn't have the evidence Bush did.

Nope. I heard contradictory evidence, as did we all, and came down on the side of "there's a very good chance they're there, and we need to decide based on a calculus of the dangers of action versus inaction." I was more certain that he had the facilities up and running to make them, and I was wrong about that, but, again, it's a cost-benefit equation.
Night. See ya'all in a few weeks.
