Political Quotes

“I will say at this point in time, Senator Lieberman and I, and Senators McCain and Bayh drafted this resolution after listening to the suggestions of many Senators on both sides of the aisle.

I will give three quotes from President Bush's speech to the Nation last night about the imminent threat posed by these weapons of mass destruction: In 1995, after several years of deceit by the Iraqi regime, the head of Iraq's military industries defected. It was then that the regime was forced to admit that it had produced more than 30,000 liters of anthrax and other deadly biological agents. The inspectors, however, concluded that Iraq had likely produced two to four times that amount. This is a massive stockpile of biological weapons that has never been accounted for, and is capable of killing millions . . . Alliances with terrorists could allow the Iraqi regime to attack America without leaving any fingerprints . . . We've also discovered through intelligence that Iraq has a growing fleet of manned and unmanned aerial vehicles that could be used to disperse chemical and biological weapons across broad areas.”
