    Actually when I called Samantha that a year ago it had nothing to do with
    Weapons Of Mass Destruction or even Iraq, it had to do with Afghanistan and
    Osama bin Laden. However I will concede that if WMD are not found in Iraq
    mighty damn soon then it's me that will look like an idiot; I swallowed the
    line that there was virtually no doubt they existed hook line and sinker. As
    each day passes and nothing is found it looks more and more like I was dead
    wrong.
