It is inaccurate for Beck to claim that liberals were against the war before it began.

I seem to remember liberals voting for the war, then, and only then, did they start to say we shouldn't have gone to war using the "bush lied people died" BS meme.

Exactly right!!!

After 911, EVERYBODY was for going over and kicking Al Quaida’s butt. EVERYBODY, even the left.
The problem arose when they realized it was George W. Bush in the White House when we SUCCEEDED at the task.

THAT is when they figured out that they couldn’t let that happen and started bad-mouthing the war and lying about BUSH lying and all that.

Somebody, feel free to correct me here... I was under the impression that the Gulf War stopped with a cease fire and NOT a peace treaty.
And that the cease fire had CONDITIONS, which Hussein stopped following once Clinton was in office and didn’t bother to enforce.

After 911 happened, we needed a base over THERE from which to fight the terrorists, right? Didn’t we essentially ‘un-pause’ the Gulf War due to the cease-fire conditions being broken?
