It's never too late to do what's right.

The administration sold ALL of us on this war. Even the American people. Eventually, the American people realized the administration was wrong, as well

It's too bad that the American public is too stupid to realize that the Senate Intel Committee had the same information and came to the same conclusion.

On the other hand, it's perfectly understandable. It's hard to be so one-sided and hateful if you know the truth.

I'm talking the SENATE INTEL COMMITTEE - NOT Congress.

And that doesn't change the fact that we have a bunch of fickle, low-life, popularity seekers in Congress.

So are you really going to stand up on that soap box, Jefferson, and state that the Iraq War was a good idea?

We were duped by this administration... how can you still be hooked on their line? Luckily more and more Americans have realized the truth as we could see from the last election...

some take a little longer I guess.

Did I say that?

Good lord, I think it's time for you to grow up and stop putting words in my mouth. It doesn't become you!


What I've said is that the White House did NOT act alone in this. Do I need to re-write that, using bolded 7 point red font for you to see it?



Nahhhhh... You wouldn't see it anyway.

Jeff, did you really read my post? The correct info was left out during the administration's compilement of evidence. This was long before they presented it to anyone. It was seen by no one (other than the top dogs in the administration), including the SENATE INTEL COMMITTEE.

This I agree with. Very few of them(on both sides) actually care about anything other than money and re-election.

Do you really think a Democratic president would have lead us to war in the same situation?? I don't. You seem to be implying that though.

I think a Democrat President might very well have simply ignored the rising and very real threat of global terrorism because he was too busy running around getting blow-jobs. Then he would likely have launched a couple random missles into an aspirin factory, in order to try to divert attention away from his sexual dalliances.

Oh yeah, and maybe he would have invaded a tiny little eastern European country. But it would have done absolutely NOTHING in response to the terrorist attacks on American soil - except encourage the terrorists to be even more bold.


That pretty much sums up what I think a Democrat would have done in the same situation.

Hmmmm... I'm sensing a wiff of deja vu.

Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11 and the threat of "global terrorism". It is adding heat to the terrorism problem since it creating more of them and unifying them against a common cause.
