This was lost in our media because it was too busy banging the war drums and complying with the whims of the politicos, corporate fat cats, and the public.

This is so frustrating ...
I wasn't making a WMD case, I was pointing out that I've read a bunch of stuff suggesting that they were found and moved out BUT THAT I DIDN'T BELIEVE IT.
I didn't need to be filled out on the rest of what I was missing.
My whole damn point in this entire thread is that all media is tainted, all sources are questionable, and that bias is over played because everyone ignores what they like to hear or believe and tune in when someone challenges one of their "facts"
I wasn't defending FOX
I wasn't defending Bush
I'm not trying to make a case for the Iraq war.
Too tired off all that crap to do that again.
And the defending Fox thing ... you know me well enough to know that I push back on any majority that has gone too far. Any one. They are almost always way over the top and need to be questioned. Nothing is ever as black and white as some think it to be.
So statements like Fox is trying to get the US into Iran, or Fox purposesly lies just drive me nuts, because they're so over cooked that reality is just left to wither on the vine.
By trying to push the scale from 99.9% against Fox to say 87% I get hammered as a Fox lover. Sad
