I know I'm in the minority of Freepers on this one...but we need o let the Iraq/ 9/11 thing go. Even if there were copntacts and some cooperation that doesn't justify the scale of our response in Iraq and y'all are simply preachingto the choir.
We need to focus the reality that we are there now, the consequences of leaving early, the humanitarian good that we have done, what a bad guy Saddam was and our plan to leave Iraq with a stable friendly democracy. That is the way to get the support we need to finish the job - and to not lose the house and senate in the process.
It is not good to simply forget the past and ignore the intentional deceptions being made about it. The aim of these deceptions is to cause division not find a solution.
I disagree with you.
Your solution of "just let Iraq/9/11thingy go" still leaves all those the CommiCrats brainwashed believing all the lies about the President and VP inventing the story so as to go to war for oil.
The CommiCrats repeatd the lies till 1/2 the nation believed them so maybe if we keep throwing the truth at them we can convert them and show the CommiCrats up for what they are and save the country from being taken over completely by the Communists.
If we had decided in 2003 to let it go, Al Qaeda would be mor epowerful, and Saddam would be sitting on WMD's or WMD capability. The combination is scary.
I agree. The more stridently and desperately conservatives defend the pretext for the war the more foolish we look.

Well said. The facts as they are now need to be dealt with, not the facts as they weren't then.
