"Over the years, Iraq has worked to develop nuclear, chemical and biological weapons. During 1991 - 1994, despite Iraq's denials, U.N. inspectors discovered and dismantled a large network of nuclear facilities that Iraq was using to develop nuclear weapons. Various reports indicate that Iraq is still actively pursuing nuclear weapons capability. There is no reason to think otherwise. Beyond nuclear weapons, Iraq has actively pursued biological and chemical weapons.U.N. inspectors have said that Iraq's claims about biological weapons is neither credible nor verifiable. In 1986, Iraq used chemical weapons against Iran, and later, against its own Kurdish population. While weapons inspections have been successful in the past, there have been no inspections since the end of 1998. There can be no doubt that Iraq has continued to pursue its goal of obtaining weapons of mass destruction." -- Patty Murray, October 9, 2002

By Amity Shlaes, Bloomberg.comLast week, Harold M. Ickes seemed like Hillary Clinton's only angel. This week, it is becoming clear that he is her undoing.Exactly how Senator Clinton's strategist has played such an important role in her presidential campaign becomes more obvious when you scrutinize not one Harold but two: Harold M. Ickes and Harold L. Ickes, his late father.Harold M. has led Clinton's campaign using a traditional Democratic approach to politics, in which a party functionary works like crazy for a campaign that dispenses rewards to interest groups on behalf of the candidate. That approach worked phenomenally for Harold L. in 1936, when he was serving the New Deal as Franklin D. Roosevelt's adviser and secretary of the Interior. But it turns out it's ill-suited for victory today.How Harold M., 68, came to make this error starts with his relationship to his father. Harold L. died when Harold M. was young. And the physical similarities between the two men aren't especially great -- Harold L. had that wonderful old-fashioned ``office pudgy'' look you don't see a lot today.When it comes to personality, the resemblance is almost eerie. Harold M. is enviably industrious. So was Harold L., who first won Roosevelt's attention in 1932 by persuading the superdelegates of his day, the progressives, that they ought to abandon the Republican Party.Harold M. spews four-letter words when agitated. Harold L. was also pugnacious. Harold M. forced fellow strategist Mark Penn out of the Clinton campaign. Harold L. forced fellow New Dealer Harry Hopkins, not out, but down in the New Deal hierarchy.
