Does Bush seem a little cavalier in his attitude towards finding WMD?

Okay, let us say for a moment that Iraqi WMD exist. That was the reason for going to war, so that the Iraqis would not give WMD to terrorist. So far we do not know where the WMD is located, we are hunting and hunting. That is not to assume someone doesn’t know and that knowledge could be worth a lot of money on the black market. When someone in the Bush administration is asked the standard response is “ we will find them, give us time, we have only been looking for 90 days.” Now the question is this in 90 days how much Seron, Anthrax, Nerve and other forms of biological weapons can be moved to the terrorist? You would think that Bush would be tearing up Iraq to find this stuff. But all we get is this slow motion statement of “give us time.”

I propose if WMD is not found Bush lost it to the terrorist

and

even if WMD is found that Bush has been derelict in his duty to protect the country, because he will be unable to assure us that during the time he took to find the WMD tons of it could not now be in the hand of terrorist.

Case closed.

1. Could letting terrorists get WMD be part of the plan...
...to keep the Murkin people scared shitless all the time and thus come across as a "strong (p)resident" and thus ensure his election in 2004?

3. He's not cavalier
He's not anything.

He just occasionally goes toward some cameras and says some stuff that he's handed to read, and that's it. It'not cavalier, it's more that the subject matter du jour is a total non-issue to him, as is everything else.

On those few occasions lately when I've been unfortunate enough to witness this little f***wit attempt to speak it's been plainly apparent that he has no emotional or intellectual connection at all to the words that he utters so painfully. Watch him - I've seen parrots that I think were more connected to what they were saying.
