"...you are the one who claimed "Bush lied". It's up to you to back up your absurd lie..."
Dubya swore to protect and defend the Constitution. That was not just an idle campaign statement. He took an oath. Since then he has ignored the 6th Amendment rights of at least 2 US citizens, by unilaterally imprisoning them without trial or access to an attorney and ignored the court, when it was ruled that the administration had to give one of those citizens access to an attorney, signed the (ANTI)Patriot Act, which seriously subverts the 4th Amendment, has encouraged Congress to support the European Cybercrimes Treaty, that would represent an extremely serious assault on the 1st Amendment and has done almost as much damage to the 10th Amendment as did klinton and the list goes on. Now we have O'Neill telling us that, contrary to Dubya's claims, Dubya was trying to find an excuse to invade Iraq, long before the WTC and Pentagon attacks.
I'm not saying that O'Neill is telling the truth. But, considering the above, I am much more inclined to believe him, than a person like Dubya, who has so blatantly disregarded an oath to the people, on so many occasions.
Considering Dubya's track record, this appears to be just one more example of Dubya's duplicity. It's time for conservatives to elect a real trustworthy conservative to the Presidency. The one we have certainly isn't cutting it.
