Can Anybody Still Support Bush?

This is both damning and scary that Bush could have led an *unnecessary* campaign so poorly that Iraq is on the verge of a civil war and tons of explosives disappeared. All of it under the watch of our fearless (and witless) commander-in-chief. Look at the photographic evidence that follows...

From 5 Eyewitness News KSTP-TV Minneapolis/St. Paul:

President Bush says no one knows if the ammunition was taken before or after the fall of Baghdad on April 9, 2003 when coalition troops moved in to the area.

Using GPS technology and talking with members of the 101st Airborne Division, 5 EYEWITNESS NEWS has determined the crew embedded with the troops may have been on the southern edge of the Al Qaqaa installation, where the ammunition disappeared. The news crew was based just south of Al Qaqaa, and drove two or three miles north of there with soldiers on April 18, 2003.

During that trip, members of the 101st Airborne Division showed the 5 EYEWITNESS NEWS news crew bunker after bunker of material labeled "explosives." Usually it took just the snap of a bolt cutter to get into the bunkers and see the material identified by the 101st as detonation cords.

"We can stick it in those and make some good bombs." a soldier told our crew.
