Here is the official GOP lie-of-the-day concerning the 380 tons of ultra high explosive that Bush’s ineptitude allowed terrorists to remove from al Qa Qaa:
“.... a segment by NBC News on Monday directly countered Kerry's claims that the weapons disappeared because of low post-war troop levels, but instead shows that the HMX and RDX explosives were not even present when coalition forces first arrived at Al Qaqaa during Operation Iraqi Freedom.”

The ultra explosives that Bush fumbled away into the hands of people who blowup marines as a hobby included HMX, a trigger for nuclear bombs. Here’s a quick Google assist for America's chronically lazy journalists....
“HMX is also known as Octogen. This explosive compound is a white, crystalline solid .”

I want you to think back to the head (and news) spinning days of shock and awe last year. Friday, April 04 to be exact. As you may recall, those nutty kids over at Fox news were desperate for any news they could spin into a WMD find to support Bush’s decision to invade Iraq.
“As the military advances closer to Baghdad, signs of Iraqi chemical preparedness are multiplying, although there is still no conclusive evidence Saddam Hussein's regime possesses weapons of mass destruction.

U.N. weapons inspectors went repeatedly to the vast al Qa Qaa complex.
---
Col. John Peabody, engineer brigade commander of the 3rd Infantry Division, said troops found thousands of 2-by-5-inch boxes, each containing three vials of white powder
---
Initial reports suggest the powder is an explosive, but tests are still being done, a senior U.S. official said. If confirmed, it would be consistent with what the Iraqis say is the plant's purpose, producing explosives and propellants.

Sooooo - Bush claims that the 578 Toyota Tundra loads of extremely dangerous explosives were missing when US troops reached Al QaQaa. Fox news, in their haste to taint all white powders as WMDs, proves George is lying.
For once I believe Fox news.
