"Senator...I know that standards have slipped over the last few years in Washington, but for a lawyer, you're remarkably cavalier iwth any idea of justice...
"You assert that I have had many meetings with Saddam Hussein. This is false. I have had two meetings with Saddam Hussein...As a matter of fact, I have met Saddam Hussein exactly the same number of times as Donald Rumsfeld met him. The difference is, Donald Rumsfeld met him to sell him guns...I met him to try and bring about an end to sanctions, suffering, and war...
"Senator, I gave my heart and sould to oppose the policy that you promoted.
"I gave my heart and soul to stop you from committing the disaster that you did commit in invading Iraq.
"I told the world that your case for the war was a pack of lies.
"I told the world that Iraq, contrary to your claims, did not have weapons of mass destruction.
"I told the world, contrary to your claims, that Iraq had no connection to Al Qaeda.
"I told the world, contrary to your claims, that Iraq had no connection to the atrocity of 9/11/2001.
"I told the world, contrary to your claims, that the Iraqi people would resist a British and American invasion of their country and that the fall of Baghdad would not be the beginning of the end but merely the end of the beginning.
"Senator, in everything I said about Iraq, I turned out to be right and you turned out to be wrong, and 100,00 people have paid with their lives: 1,600 of them American soldiers sent to their deaths on a pack of lies: 15,000 of them wounded, many of them disabled forever on a pack of lies."
