It's only a figment of our imagination to be discarded. 
So the dems and the brotherhood of weasels want us to believe.

If you remember, I happen to have BELIEVED there were WMDs (and it's really not hard to imagine that they got smuggled into Syria while we were giving Iraq advanced warning we were coming) - I just thought at that time (and still do) that the WMD issue was completely manageable without invading Iraq.
Now the damn things could be anywhere. With Saddam in power he'd never have let the things out of the country.
You can look at this one of two ways:
- Either there were large WMD stockpiles and the reckless actions of the Bush administration has now forced them to be dispersed to parts and nations unknown (my pet theory).
- Or there never was much of a stockpile, if any and we invaded Iraq for nothing.
Either way the war was ill conceived in my opinion. Using WMDs to rationalize the war at this point is a joke (although not quite as funny as the "We did it to free our Iraqi brothers from tyranny!" excuse).
As I've said before, the stability of the Middle East has been a large concern for every administration for the past 6 decades. This administration threw away 60 years worth of hard work on the part of previous - and wiser - administrations (including Bush's own father's) and left us with a dangerously unstable government sitting on the 4th largest oil reserve, with neighbors who would just love to take over in the name of Islam and set the "Poor misguided Iraqis back on the path of enlightenment".
We now have to baby-sit TWO Arab countries for the next decade, the Middle East is more unstable than it's been in 50 years, and the attack on Iraq pretty much destroyed any real hope (granted a slim one) of a peace settlement between the Israelis and the Palestinians.
The fallout of the war has caused increased radical Islamic fundamentalism all over the world, an increased distrust of the west by Muslim countries (laugh all you want, but they have all the oil and represent a large number of people that cannot be ignored).
Oil prices are going through the roof because the markets see an unstable situation in the Middle East and are assuming that oil availablity will be limited soon - even the recent major increase in oil supply from OPEC in an attempt to bring down prices failed because the markets have no faith in FUTURE supply stability.
Far from dissuading others from developing WMDs, we're encouraging them. Are we going to invade Iran now too? How about Syria? I'd say we're stretched a little thin right now between Afghanistan and Iraq. Besides I'd rather not pay to rebuild another arab country that really doesn't appreciate our fine workmanship anyway, and tends to behead our contrustion workers, thank you.
I believe Bush asked the question himself at the first debate: "Do you feel the world is a safer place now?"
No I don't Mr. President.

Christians warn us about the anti-christ for 2,000 years, and when he shows up, they buy a bible from him.
