RE: After the Bush administration’s failure to discover weapons of mass destruction in Iraq,
1) What is Weapons of Mass Destruction? People seem to equate it to only Nuclear materials and ignore CHEMICAL weapons.
2) They DID FIND Chemical Weapons, but for some strange reason, chose not to make their findings known.
We now know that LONG AFTER Bush was gone:

and here:

In this sense, GW BUsh was a failure, not because he did not defeat the enemy, but because he failed to show the vindication for his rationale for going to war in Iraq.
“In this sense, GW BUsh was a failure, not because he did not defeat the enemy, but because he failed to show the vindication for his rationale for going to war in Iraq.”
By keeping the discovery secret we did not have to guard them as primary targets, which would have taken needed troops from other tasks. Bush made a presidential call at the expense of his vindication. Amazing! Can you picture Carter, Obama or any Democrat doing the same?
