How dumb is the Left?

We have assloads of Leftists all screaming the "BUSH LIED" mantra non-stop. Yet, when faced with what the leaders of the Left said themselves.......

"Iraq does pose a serious threat to the stability of the Persian Gulf and we should organize an international coalition to eliminate his access to weapons of mass destruction. Iraq's search for weapons of mass destruction has proven impossible to completely deter and we should assume that it will continue for as long as Saddam is in power." -- Al Gore, 2002

"We are in possession of what I think to be compelling evidence that Saddam Hussein has, and has had for a number of years, a developing capacity for the production and storage of weapons of mass destruction." -- Bob Graham, December 2002

"Saddam Hussein is not the only deranged dictator who is willing to deprive his people in order to acquire weapons of mass destruction." -- Jim Jeffords, October 8, 2002

"We have known for many years that Saddam Hussein is seeking and developing weapons of mass destruction." -- Ted Kennedy, September 27, 2002

"There is no doubt that Saddam Hussein's regime is a serious danger, that he is a tyrant, and that his pursuit of lethal weapons of mass destruction cannot be tolerated. He must be disarmed." -- Ted Kennedy, Sept 27, 2002

"I will be voting to give the president of the United States the authority to use force - if necessary - to disarm Saddam Hussein because I believe that a deadly arsenal of weapons of mass destruction in his hands is a real and grave threat to our security." -- John F. Kerry, Oct 2002

These are the very same people who are now chanting "BUSH LIED!" as a matter of faith. They had access to the same information the President did. They looked at the same intel that the President did. They had the same memos, photographs, reports, and access to material that the President did. They voted to authorise the war with Iraq.

And now they want to claim that the President lied.

That makes the Left, and it's supporters, some of the dumbest people on the face of the earth. They are either so mind-boggling incompetant that they should never be allowed in the Capitol Building ever again, or they're lying their asses off for political gain.

I say it's both.
