Every time I run into a lib following this line of thought (the President lied, we should turn to the dems for salvation), I bring up the fact that a whole slough of lib politicians espoused much more dire warnings about Iraq than the administration ever did. Invariably, the reply is that the President lied to them, just as he had lied to the American public. I then follow up with the question that if the dems are so gullible that they can be fooled by the President's "obvious" lies, then why should I have faith in their ability to keep the country safe; after all, "we all know that Bush is a moron".

Needless to say, after the first encounter, most libs I know don't broach the subject with me anymore.

Yeah, but Bush was only the Governor of Texas when all the dems were screaming about WMD's. Man, that Karl Rove must be really, really good!

You might also point out that Clinton and his administration were also making these dire warnings several years even before Bush arrived in Washington.

They even passed a law -- The Iraq Liberation Act -- calling for "regime change" in 1998.
