Shouldn't we have done this before?

From Drudge comes "U.S. Asks Experts to Survey Iraqi Labs":

The United States is inviting a group of international experts to inspect two mobile labs suspected of being used by Iraq as biological weapons facilities... Outside confirmation could help legitimize one of the Bush administration's main reasons for going to war.

Well, duh. What many in the administration and many of my fellow righties fail to understand that it's not enough to just believe that those Cheezy Wacky O's you're selling are the best snack food since sliced bread, you need to make other people understand that as well.

And, you need to do that before the Crunchy Corn Thing-O's people have already tied up the market.

In other words, we should have had this team ready to go, and we should have used the presence of the team to call people's bluffs well before the 'There's no WMDs in Iraq' meme had oozed itself across the blogosphere as well as "reputable" journalism. We were going to find WMDs in Iraq, and we will find more in the future. Now, we need to turn back the tide with any confirming reports.
