O'Reilly on WMD

"One of the interesting post-war debates is about WMDs. Some war critics are demanding to see them right now. However, these are the same people that wanted to give Hans Blix and his crew more time to find the weapons. So, what's up with that?"

What's up with that is the fact that the U.S. knew he had weapons. We had the intelligence. There was thousands of tons of the stuff and we knew it was there. So, it follows that when we go into Iraq, with more access than the inspectors ever had, we should be able to find them rather quickly. Plus, they were supposed to have been able to use them on 45 minutes notice. Maybe some people are a bit impatient, but if we knew they were there, where are they? Did we not keep surveillance on them?

"Now, I've stopped putting the anti-American loons on this broadcast because, really, there isn't a discussion, there's only ranting. Kind of feel guilty about that because The Factor wants to hear all rational voices, but I've come to the conclusion that anyone who wants his own country to be damaged is not really rational. It would be like wanting your own family to be hurt."

No, you've stopped putting dissenters on becuase they irritate you and if you actually put someone articulate on, you have to cut their mic so you don't look like an ass. I have a feeling O'Reilly has a skewed view of what a patriotic American is, also. Maybe I'll share my views on that later. All 6 of you that have visited the blog will be waiting with baited breath.
