Flip Flops Indeed

From the dynamic Diana at Democracy for California:

The difference between Republican flipflops and Democrat flipflops is that theirs are deadly.

Powell before the invasion:

"There can be no doubt that Saddam Hussein has biological weapons and the capability to rapidly produce more, many more."

Powell after the invasion:

"I think it's unlikely that we will find any stockpiles.

Powell conceded the possibility Iraq might not have had any when the war began, in answer to questions by lawmakers about the intelligence behind his Feb. 5, 2003, U.N. Security Council speech laying out U.S. arguments for the war with Iraq that began six weeks later. Reuters

People died. That's the bottom line.
