He had WMDs, that much is clear. That's all it said, really. Implications being what they are, you could call it baiting an untruth, but as long as that past-tense is in there...
As for Bush I taking out Saddam, it wasn't possible. We did not have a strong enough presence in the region to go it alone, and no one else was going to stick it out past Kuwait. Two years later would have worked, but U.S. was a different place by then.
