From the Archives of the "Liberal" Media
I can't resist posting this excerpt from the Washington Post editorial the day after the war in Iraq began (March 20, 2003):

"Yet, even if the operation does not go smoothly or fast, it must go forward. Saddam Hussein has threatened his neighbors, and the United States, with war and weapons of mass destruction for two decades; he has violated the cease-fire that ended the Persian Gulf War and defied multiple disarmament orders from the United Nations Security Council. The war that has now begun stands to end the single greatest threat to peace in the Middle East; it will help establish that rogue states will not be allowed to stockpile chemical, biological or nuclear weapons in defiance of the international community."

This was the same Post that relentlessly smeared candidate Gore in 2000 helping to give us eight years of the Jackass and the Creep.
