White House Memo: Remember ?Weapons of Mass Destruction?? For Bush, They Are a Nonissue: "Mr. Bush's answers to questions on the subject continued a gradual shift in the way he has addressed the topic, from the immediacy of the threat to an assertion that no matter what, the world is better off without Mr. Hussein in power.
Where once Mr. Bush and his top officials asserted unambiguously that Mr. Hussein had the weapons at the ready, their statements now are often far more couched, reflecting the fact that no weapons have been found ? 'yet,' as Mr. Bush was quick to interject during the interview."
