the war was right, how it was conducted was wrong.

we shouldn’t have sent in ground troops, but instead leveled the place from 1,000 miles away.

The war was shopped from the get go. The first reason given was Iraqi violation of the northern fly zone set up by daddy, which was rejected by the UN. When that didn't work they trotted out the Clintonian WMD bullshite. That worked til it didn't so the purple fingers in the air we're bringing democracy to the Middle East was employed. Was it worth close to $2 trillion and close to 4500 American servicemen? You fuggin pathetic neocons need to go away.

And we were fighting forces of Al Queda in Fallujah. That kept them busy and away from the US mainland.
