Wikileaks: The Left discredited, WMDs found

  Over at Tigerhawk:

Glenn Reynolds notes that the early revelations from the "Wikileaks" exposure of classified Iraq war documents do not actually reflect well on the political left. In particular, the documents reveal that The Lancet's two infamous studies on casualties in Iraq,curiously released in October 2004 and October 2006, respectively, grossly overstated the death toll from that war. This should not surprise us, insofar as the second such study (which claimed 600,000 war-related deaths in Iraq through the summer of 2006, or almost six times the 109,000 deaths through 2009 revealed by Wikileaks) was funded and promoted by George Soros, a fact that was ignored in virtually all of the press coverage back when it mattered. 

  Even the despicable Andrew Sullivan acknowledges WMDs were found, although, of course, Sullivan says there was no evidence Hussein was actually planning on using the WMDs, an argument that's never worked for the left regarding nuclear weapons and even though Hussein HAD used mustard gas on his own people.
  Hm. This is an interesting development. The left is discredited by the wikileaks documents and Bush was proven correct.
  Hm.
