WHAT WE TALK ABOUT WHEN WE TALK ABOUT ROVE: Iraq — specifically WMD. Opponents of the Iraq mission are bound and determined to use Rove as a way to second-guess the decision to remove Saddam. Of course, they signed on to that policy, which became American policy under Clinton. We know Saddam once possessed WMD because he used them on his own people. Was the U.S. wrong about whether Iraq still possessed WMD? Yes, along with: Britain, Germany, France, Russia, the United Nations... Oh, silly me. Those are facts. Let's get back to Rove: Horowitz offers worthy reflections here and Hitchens here.
