Mohamed ElBaradei, the man who called bullshit on the Bush Adminitration's WMD line has won the Nobel Peace Prize.
Mr. ElBaradei, 63, has championed the peaceful use of nuclear energy while emphasizing quiet diplomacy in trying to dissuade countries from using the technology to develop weapons. He has been at the center of non-proliferation crises involving all three states that President Bush once labeled the axis of evil, Iraq under Saddam Hussein, Iran and North Korea.
He faced intense pressure from Washington in the days before the 2003 U.S.-led invasion of Iraq, demanding more time for weapons inspectors to search the country for weapons of mass destruction. Those weapons were never found.
Good.

You have a very broad definition of "Left Wing". It's operation definition seems to be:
Left Wing,left-wing (lftwng) adj.
Anything TJIC doesn't like.
I don't see how telling people that we didn't find WMD before the invasion (and that we subsequently didn't find after the invasion) is a leftist policy.
Unless you a proposing that we should have pretended to find them to support the administration.
