WHAT EXPLOSIVES?

In its newest display of astounding incompetence, the Bush administration failed to secure nearly 360 tons of high-powered explosives in Iraq.

Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright on CNN this afternoon called it an unfortunate series of "unintended consequences," not unlike the Supreme Court selecting Bush as the "winner" of the 2000 election.

The missing cache includes HMX and RDX, which are "key ingredients in plastic explosives such as C-4 and Semtex — substances so powerful that Libyan terrorists needed just one pound to blow up Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, in 1988, killing 170 people."
