Tick tick tick tick ...

Resurrecting this 17-month-old story on the missing explosives one week before the election to make the Bush Administration look incompetent was pretty good strategy on the part of the Kerry campaign and the mainstream media, I must admit. Unfortunately, they once again counted on the ignorance of the majority of Americans, assuming that not enough people would figure out that it's an ancient story. And people did figure it out, and now everybody's backpedaling.

This plan is totally going to backfire on them.

Also, if 300+ tons of explosives could disappear from Iraq in those months that we were fiddling around with the U.N., I wonder what else could have possibly disappeared? Maybe ... WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION?!?!??! Hmm.
