For some reason that escapes me President Bush and others high in our government did not seem to want the public to know the truth about WMDs in Iraq or the extent Sadaam was involved with encouraging/supporting terrorism against the U.S. It makes no sense to me, might have been a failure to communicate the truth or unwillingness to stand up to the media and critics of the war- or a real desire to sweep it all under the rug- but for what reason??
GWB is the precise opposite of BHO. GWB hates tooting his own horn. BHO, well...
