When Is A WMD Not a WMD?

Cliffs of the narrative NYT is pushing with this story:
There actually were WMDs in Iraq, but they were inactive, unusable corroded artifacts from the 80s before the first Gulf War. And they in no way justify the Bush administration's rationale for invading Iraq. Bush lied about them too because handling them wounded at least six soldiers. However, now that ISIS controls the region where these unusable WMDs were found, they are suddenly usable again and it's Bush's fault because ISIS wouldn't exist if we hadn't invaded Iraq in the first place.

Seems like there's a lot of pretzelling to have their cake and eat it too.

Agreed Chad.  There is a whole lotta waffling on this shit.

Well if they were inactive how were six soldiers hurt?

"Hey my friends are the ones that wanted to eat at that shitty hole in the wall that only served bread and wine.  What kind of brick and mud business model is that.  Stick to the cart if that's all you're going to serve.  Then that dude came in with like 12 other people, and some of them weren't even wearing shoes, and the restaurant sat them right across from us. It was gross, and they were all stinky and dirty.  Then dude starts talking about eating his body and drinking his blood...I almost lost it.  That's the last supper I'll ever have there, and I hope he dies a horrible death."

Five statements of WISDOM
1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity, by legislating the wealth out of prosperity.
2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.
3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.
4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.
5. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friends, is the beginning of the end of any nation.
