Quoted: Fair enough. Just to clarify, let's say that I find a quote from Donald Rumsfeld that he personally backed Saddam's ascent to power, and that quote is found at www.atimes.com, would you consider that to be definitive? What sources are not credible with regards to relating quotes? I'd say that www.rense.com would be in the "not credible" camp, do you want to add to the list?

About quotes: I only trust quotes if I know the original source, eg the magazine interview or news interview. I've seen too many quotes twisted out of context and not just in politics.

Well, I guess we're done then. You are reserving the right to simply point and say "Liberal!" at any/all sources, no matter what they are, or whether the quotes are real. Not much left to do here.

So you admit there were WMDs up until Spring, 2003 and that Saddam did train Islamic terrorists? Remind us again where Bush lied. Help me...help you! Or are you saying Saddam did not train Islamic terrorists and that saddam didn't have WMDs (well, he did, he used them , but he got rid of them BUT forgot to tell us) It must be that right wing press

Where did that list come from? I asked, Who trained Saddam? And you just yanked this whole thing up out of nowhere like I'm supposed to defend all these things.
And I suppose the following is just liberal nonsense.
U.S. forces in Baghdad might now be searching high and low for Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein, but in the past Saddam was seen by U.S. intelligence services as a bulwark of anti-communism and they used him as their instrument for more than 40 years, according to former U.S. intelligence diplomats and intelligence officials.
United Press International has interviewed almost a dozen former U.S. diplomats, British scholars and former U.S. intelligence officials to piece together the following account. The CIA declined to comment on the report.
While many have thought that Saddam first became involved with U.S. intelligence agencies at the start of the September 1980 Iran-Iraq war, his first contacts with U.S. officials date back to 1959, when he was part of a CIA-authorized six-man squad tasked with assassinating then Iraqi Prime Minister Gen. Abd al-Karim Qasim.
