Santorum: 'We wound WMD in Iraq'

In MSNBC's First Read, I noticed something mind-boggling: Penn. Sen. Rick Santorum declared "we have found weapons of mass destruction in Iraq".

Courtesy this progressive site, TruthDig, we are then treated to video -- from Fox News, no less! -- of Santorum's expression as he learns his breathless announcement was based on "pre-1991 weapons" that even the Bush administration is discounting. YouTube version.

As Rep. Peter Hoekstra, who is the co-idiot in this situation, said: "Rick (Santorum) got this information from an unconventional source, someone outside of the government..." Looks like somebody tricked Santorum into making the announcement and looking like even more of an idiot than he usually does.
