NYTimes: Bush Saved Us from Iraq Nuclear Weapon

OK, the headline doesn't say that. Instead, the NYTimes attempts to hit Bush by saying the Administration carelessly kept up information on a website that could be used by terrorists (hmm, that's ironic). But here is the juicy part buried in paragraph 14:

"Among the dozens of documents in English were Iraqi reports written in the 1990s and in 2002 for United Nations inspectors in charge of making sure Iraq had abandoned its unconventional arms programs after the Persian Gulf war. Experts say that at the time, Mr. Hussein's scientists were on the verge of building an atom bomb, as little as a year away."

So, it appears that if the story is true, President Bush has saved us from a nuclear-armed Iraq. Wizbang has more on this story.
