“The world community said repeatedly, “Saddam will have a nuke in six (five four, three, sixmonths)”. EVERY intelligence agency said the same thing and the Dems Ok’d the invasion (as well as many of our allies).”
Not true at all; unlike the war in Afghanistan, we had few allies in Iraq (and those were mercenaries).
Dems OKed it out of political expediency, and many paid a price for that. Obama supporters used it against Clinton to great effect.
Remember Bush joking with journalists, looking under the podium for “weapons of mass destruction”? A lot of people died for that “joke”; Americans paid the smallest price...Iraqis still pay every day.
If the “Islamic slimeball hanged” is a reference to Saddam, then as someone who remember when he was our ally, I’d have to disagree. Iraq was a haven to Christians in the Middle East; they are now casualties of the fake war.
.Iraqis still pay every day....And your problem is? The Iraquis should have taken care of it decades ago, as the Mexicans, guatemalans and WE should. Dems argued for it while Clinton was in and knew he would do nothing, the French, Germans and Isreali’s all were convinced he was developing a nuke (but helped him right along). No, you’ll never convince me that Bush woke up one day and said” Let’s go kick Saddam’s ass. It’s all for oil.” How much oil did we we steal, anyway? Never saw a statistic, anywhere. My answer to myself “None.”
Your arguments are plainly untrue.
The US had DOZENS of allies in Iraq.
Several of those allies put troops on the ground and died beside us: Britain, Poland, and Australia are three good examples.
Weapons of mass destruction were found:

The Duelfer report said that from the beginning. Bush had the intellectual honesty to say we did not find “large” stockpiles. Dissidents exaggerated the threat posed from the limited weapons he self evidently had when we invaded in 2003.
It irritates me greatly that “faux conservatives” brandish their authentic conservatism by bashing Bush as fake.
The real problem with American war fighting is that so many of these authentic conservatives are willing to play along with American media distortions like “Bush lied on WMD” and thereby undermining both the success and meaning of our success in war.
America has “lost” all wars since Vietnam because Americans refuse to stand up to the media bullies who say war is always wrong no matter who the enemy is.
I can guarantee you that Saddam Hussein will never threaten the world ever again. It was not a fake war and it is disrespectful to our heroes that fought and died there.
The new Iraqi caliphate Bagdadi told his American captors as he walked out of jail in 2009 that he would see them in New York. The cavalier terror ambition is the direct result of people selling out a great leader: George W. Bush.
Obama is the anti-thesis of Bush. Pretending to hate Bush and Obama is ridiculous. Hatred of Bush is part and parcel of supporting Obama. Too few Bush critics are willing to be specific. Instead, we are treated to grand hyperbole about what a complete loser and liar Bush is.
That is the problem— not President Bush.
