Rummy didn't get the memo; still says we may find WMD

Geez...can't the Bush Administration get its message together?

Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld said Wednesday he is not ready to conclude that Iraq did not have weapons of mass destruction before U.S. troops invaded to depose Saddam Hussein last year.

Rumsfeld told the Senate Armed Services Committee that U.S. weapons inspectors need more time to reach final conclusions about whether chemical and biological weapons existed in Iraq before the war, as the Bush administration had asserted before sending American troops into battle.

In other words, "They've gotta have WMD!  They've just gotta!!!"

Rummy put forth the following hypotheses:

Weapons may have been transferred to a third country before U.S. troops arrived in March.

Weapons may have been dispersed throughout Iraq and hidden.

Weapons existed but were destroyed by the Iraqis before the war started.

Rummy also stated the Blue Fairy will come down and turn him into a real boy, that yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus, and that he ran over a Jackalope last night while swerving to avoid Bigfoot.  Rumsfeld then left the press conference to go camping with college buddies, with whom he will go snipe hunting.

I mean, come on, now.  This is getting beyond pathetic.  We've got Kay, Powell, and even Bush saying one thing and Rummy and Cheney saying another.  This Administration is tearing itself apart at the seams.  How anyone can think these clowns are capable of leadership is beyond me.
