Check out the actual speeches getting authorization. WMDs was almost an afterthought. In the press it was and is, of course, the only cause because it is the one that did not pan out. Actually, it did and lots of stuff has been found but Bush refuses to talk about it. The discoveries are made over and over again then the press is allowed to belittle them and then deny them with no further reaction from the administration or the military or Bush allows as how well maybe they are not so big a deal. Bush has not supported the war to the people. He has allowed the enemy to monopolize the war in the media. Bush is, well, a Bush. He is his Daddy's son and seems to have the same lacunae in his vision and conceptualization that GHWB had. That is the primary reason that I would be very leery of a Jeb Bush candidacy much as I respect his term as governor in Florida.

Right. That must be why Bush himself has admitted no WMD's have been found.

The CIA has reported that no WMD's were found in Iraq.

Baloney. The entire basis for seeking UN Authorization and the Authorization for Use of Military Force were entirely based on WMD's.
