Statement released today:

“Today, the Bush administration must answer for what may be the most grave and catastrophic mistake in a tragic series of blunders in Iraq. How did they fail to secure nearly 380 tons of known, deadly explosives despite clear warnings from the International Atomic Energy Agency to do so? And why was this information unearthed by reporters -- and was it covered up by our national security officials? “These explosives can be used to blow up airplanes, level buildings, attack our troops and detonate nuclear weapons. The Bush administration knew where this stockpile was, but took no action to secure the site. They were urgently and specifically informed that terrorists could be helping themselves to the most dangerous explosives bonanza in history, but nothing was done to prevent it from happening. “This material was monitored and controlled by UN inspectors before the invasion of Iraq. Thanks to the stunning incompetence of the Bush administration, we now have no idea where it is. “We need to know what the administration knew about this and when. We need to know why they failed to safeguard these explosives and keep them out of the hands of our enemies. The National Security Advisor should be at her desk in Washington tomorrow to work this problem and answer these questions, instead of giving speeches in battleground states.” ---Joe Lockart, Kerry-Edwards Senior Advisor

Probably not the October Surprise Rove was planning. I wonder how many thousands of people are going to get killed over the next several years as a result of these explosives getting sold and used all over the world? I wonder if one will be used in a school or church or department store or hospital or retirement home or train station or hotel or freeway overpass or soccer stadium or airport or....

I would like any Republican reading this blog to tell me again why they support Bush and his job performance. And don't give me that "he created this mess so it's his responsibility to get us out of it" crap that many stupid liberals are spouting today. If Bush was one of your mid-management employees and he fired or suspended employees without a fair hearing, or put your company into bankruptcy-ready debt, or took under-the-table payments from vendors, or took 5 months of vacation each year, or repeatedly lied to fellow employees about his work production, or slandered other companies in the same business, are you telling me that you would not hesitate to renew his employment contract??
