WMD's Found in Iraq

Senator Rick Santorum held an extremely important press conference today announcing the discovery of a major stockpile of WMD's in Iraq. "Congressman Hoekstra and I are here today to say that we have found weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, chemical weapons," Santorum said at the beginning of the press conference. "It's a document that was developed by our intelligence community which for the last two and a half months I have been pursuing."

The Senator, along with Congressman Hoekstra, announced that a new declassified document from the National Ground Intelligence Center states that approximately 500 WMD's have been discovered since 2003 in Iraq. These weapons have included sarin and mustard gas, which may have been used to kill thousands of Kurds in the late 80's. "We have found over 500 weapons of mass destruction. And in fact have found that there are additional weapons of mass -- chemical weapons, still in the country, that need to be recovered," Santorum said.

So let's summarize a bit: Pennsylvanian Senator, Rick Santorum, has dug deep and fought hard to declassify a document proving Hussein lied about having WMD's... George W. Bush was correct when he said that Iraq had WMD's, and in fact did not lie... another positive milestone of this Iraq War has surfaced, much to the chagrin of John Murtha... Our troops, which Murtha claims are crippled and helpless, continue to succeed in their mission.
