Twitchy reported on some of the fallout from the New York Times article about all the chemical weapons found in Iraq during the war. ‘Some people are meatheads’: New York Times report on Iraq’s chemical weapons rekindles debate over WMDs
Speaking of meatheads, some old tweets from taxpayer-subsidized left-wing propagandist Oliver Willis have been dragged out and given a sound beating.

@owillis @exjon Just want to point out that Sarin and Mustard Gas were found in the rockets. Those of chem weapons=WMD
— Jeremy (@jthurgood1) October 15, 2014
@owillis @exjon We found WMD. Chem and bio. There was a plan for post-Saddam. O failed to follow it. Yes, he lost Iraq…among other things.

.@owillis @exjon Yes, Obama lost Iraq. He armed Syrian Islamists, pulled ALL troops out, left Billions of $ of war materiel for the taking.

@RobProvince what the weekly standard? iraq was having car bombs when it was "stable"
— Oliver Willis (@owillis) July 30, 2014
@owillis @RobProvince And the US has murders daily. Stable is a relative term. Iraq was much more stable when we maintained a presence.

@owillis @RobProvince It was stable while I was there for two tours…

@owillis @exjon you aren't doing too good on your points. Lot of losses for you here.

Yeah watch for Oliver to start moving the goalpost soon … if he hasn’t already.
@owillis @exjon In 2008 we were there and ISIS wasn't. Fast forward to 2014, we are out and ISIS is in. Difference? Obama is POTUS since '08

@owillis @exjon 2010, Biden touts Iraq as "Obama's Legacy"… what did Bush do AFTER 2010 to ruin it? I missed the 2011 Bush Presidency?
— Bert Difig (@BertDifig1) October 15, 2014
@owillis A free Iraq would mean Bush was right. The Left has to push Iraq into anarchy and chaos to prove he was wrong. U ain't foolin no 1.

@owillis @CaptYonah How can @owillis be so confident and so utterly wrong.

That’s what he and the rest of the Media Matters hacks get paid for.
