Commit these numbers to memory from the state of the union
- 25,000 liters of anthrax
- 38,000 liters of botulinum toxin
- 500 tons of sarin, mustard and VX nerve agent

for your next political debate. They are so over the top that they clearly illustrate that B* cannot be trusted.

500 tons = 1,000,000 pounds
The maximum take-off weight of a 747 is 875,000 pounds.

1. This would make a great ad...
Use the same backdrop as Kerry reading about the atrocities of the Viet Nam War.

"- 25,000 liters of anthrax
- 38,000 liters of botulinum toxin
- 500 tons of sarin, mustard and VX nerve agent"

that and other lies....

3. Worth repeating: Bush can't be trusted with our $ or our children's lives
While I would Never do something illegal like writing this on every single piece of paper currency, I have memorized it and plan on repeating it over & over, between every other argument I have against Bush and for Kerry....and for making posters, labels, etc.
Bush can't be trusted with our money or our children's lives.

6. Easier to explain, but not as important as ...
Edited on Mon Sep-06-04 12:04 PM by shockingelk
This fact:

Before the UN inspections, America was told we'd find massive complexes churning out refined uranium and terrible poisons. Bush stated we had photographic proof of this and we were actually shown the photos.

When we looked under the roofs shown in the satellite photos, we found no such things was happening, yet invaded Iraq anyway.

I wrote an essay about it if you're interested: http://fearofclowns.com/text/satellite_photos_of_watermelon_jam/ "A preemptive war for letter envelopes and watermelon jam: they didn't show up in the satellite photos"
