Mitt Romney Flip-Flops On Iraq: GOP Candidate Says 'We Would Not Have Gone In' If We Knew There Were No Weapons Of Mass Destruction (VIDEO)

Remember Tuwaitha?

The most outrageous lies of the Bush Administra­tion prior to the war were the nuclear lies. That they had the gall to threaten, to frighten, to terrorize the American people with the spectre of mushroom clouds is beyond belief, but that's exactly what they did. 

Now the lies are coming back to bite them in the persons of Joseph Wilson and Valerie Plame. The fact that BushCo chose to personally attack Wilson's family, rather than address Wilson's charge, tells us everything we need to know. 

But there's more concrete evidence that the Bush gang did not believe their own nuclear lies for a second, and it's this: When U.S. forces took control of Iraq, did they rush to secure the known nuclear sites - specifical­ly the main site at Tuwaitha? Did they safeguard the known radioactiv­e materials, lockdown the site and begin searching for evidence of Iraqi efforts to acquire nuclear weapons?

No, they did not. They did, however, in those first days, secure the Oil Ministry.

Tuwaitha languished unsecured for weeks. The uranium stored there was looted. Some of it most likely wound up on the black market.

The Bush Administra­tion, which claimed they had to invade Iraq to save us from the mushroom cloud, promptly forgot all about mushroom clouds and dirty bombs once they got some American boots onto Iraqi oil fields.
