Molly Ivins sums up my opinions on the WMD issue very nicely:
Look, if there are no WMDs in Iraq, it means either our government lied us to us in order to get us into an unnecessary war or the government itself was disastrously misinformed by an incompetent intelligence apparatus. In either case, it's a terribly serious situation.Dreadfully serious, and it's really pretty depressing that so many people let themselves be lulled by the "but Saddam was really an awful guy" distraction.

smarter than they are. I think mathematicians also believe this."
