Via Captains Quarters: WMD Found in Mosul; Over 1500 gallons of chemicals.

The Moonbats are out in force on this one. They’re trying as hard as they can to discredit the WaPo report. The main talking point seems to be pushing a notion that we conservatives are convinced that the found WMD’s existed BEFORE the war started, and that we’re somehow backtracking from a statement the Bush Administration made admitting that no WMD’s existed in Iraq when Saddam was in power (we all know Bush was pressured by the LEFT and the MSM to somehow resolve the fact that no cache had been found). The Moonies say the weapons were obviously manufactured while the war was underway (you know…when a hundred thousand US service men and women were on the ground killing people and breaking things. How the clever Iraqis could make the WMD while under fire is something those crafty Dimocrats haven’t explained yet).

By the way – NO ONE is officially stating that the discovered WMD’s predate the war. (pssst – I blame Syria) 

And the wacko Lefty conclusion? This discovery simply proves that Bush’s decision to go to war made the world a more dangerous place than it was when Saddam was in power. You know…Bush lied, people died, illegitimate war, blah blah blah.

They’ll never give up on this idea.

An 83 year-old woman was stung up to 400 times by bees.

The woman, whose name was not released, was attacked Friday by bees coming from the wall of a storage building outside her home, said Fire Department Capt. Paul McDonough.

A handyman sprayed her with water from a hose until the bees turned on him. He ran and called 911.

Firefighters found the woman lying face down and unconscious in the street. They sprayed the bees with foam, then took her to the hospital, McDonough said.

She was out of intensive care and in fair condition Friday night.

“She was stung 400 times,” said University Medical Center clinical supervisor Kim Hilty. “Everyone was surprised how well she’s doing.”

Unbelievable.

CNN’s “Question of the Hour” asks:

‘Is President Bush taking too much time off…or not enough?’

Does anyone really believe that a U.S. president’s vacation is a real vacation?

When you take time off from work you don’t think about work right? You don’t bring your secretary with you right? You don’t bring your staff with you right? You don’t get regular security briefings every morning right?

The president does, and more.

The president is the president 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. He doesn’t get any time off. It doesn’t matter if he’s in DC, Crawford, Kennebunkport, or Anytown USA.

The whole debate is silly.
