Bullshit.
Link that quote.
Bullshit? You don't even remember the drivel you post here...do you? Does this sound familiar?
Post #35 in the "Romney 2007: It's not worth spending billions of dollars trying to catch bin laden" thread.
"Prior to the conquering of Iraq..there were no Al Qaeda or any general threat to the United States.

Unlike yourself and the people you copy from, Sallow...I don't take things out of context either to give them a different meaning.
There was no Al Qaeda in Iraq (That was under control of the Baathists). And Iraq wasn't a threat to the United States.
But Al Qaeda planned and executed 9/11. Prior to that..they were involved in the Khobar Towers..and quite possibly the first bombing of the WTC..even though republicans tried to link it to Iraq. They blocked Clinton's efforts to get the guy.
That make sense to you now?
Are you kidding me? You make one of the dumber posts I've seen on here, saying the there was no Al Qaeda prior to our invading Iraq and then you come back and try and give me a history lesson on a subject that you obviously know squat about?
Unlike yourself, I'm quite aware of both the history of Al Qaeda and the timeline of their conflict with the US.
As for Iraq being a threat? I guess if you don't count a country being run by a sociopath who has a history of both using weapons of mass destruction and invading his neighbors and is actively seeking a nuclear weapon a "threat" then your statement about Iraq would be correct but since Saddam Hussein WAS a socialpath with a history of using WMD's and invading his neighbors and was actively seeking to make his country a nuclear power then you'd simply be parroting left wing talking points that have no basis in reality.
