Read this statement credited to Senator Graham, December 5, 2001:

SNIP....."Then from Sen. Bob Graham: "There is no doubt that . . . Saddam Hussein has reinvigorated his weapons programs. Reports indicate that biological, chemical and nuclear programs continue apace and may be back to pre-Gulf War status. In addition, Saddam continues to refine delivery systems and is doubtless using the cover of a . . . missile program to develop longer-range missiles that will threaten the United States and our allies....."

THEN read this statement written to the president, but NOT signed by Graham. Signed by Lott, Lieberman, McCain, Helms, Shelby, Brownback, Hyde, Ford, and Gilman. Posted at PNAC...I found it by googling the statement.

SNIP...."This December will mark three years since United Nations inspectors last visited Iraq. There is no doubt that since that time, Saddam Hussein has reinvigorated his weapons programs. Reports indicate that biological, chemical and nuclear programs continue apace and may be back to pre-Gulf war status. In addition, Saddam continues to refine delivery systems and is doubtless using the cover of a licit missile program to develop longer-range missiles that will threaten the United States and our allies......"

First of all, this does not sound like Graham. I have searched his site for such statements, and I can not find anything. I realize this is a letter from a reader, but I still intend to question its veracity.
