But many people whose kid is dead or without an arm or leg or eye because of Iraq did believe they were going there because of WMDs and a potential threat. What do you say to them? Don't care?

Actually, yes, I don't care that we have not yet found any WMD's. And, I really don't care if we do. And I don't fault the president for doing what he did if he did so using bad intel.

And what of Saddam? Remember him? The idiot that should not have played poker with the president. It's HIS FAULT. Nobody elses. His! The fool!

Frankly, we should have gone into Iraq long ago just because Saddam was funding terrorists like Arafat. But no, we have people like you that think those running the ME will be nicey nicey if we are. Well, on 9/11 they drew first blood. Big mistake.

No we have people like you who mention 9/11 in the same breath as Iraq when Bush himself said the two are not connected:

Bush Reports No Evidence of Hussein Tie to 9/11 By DAVID E. SANGER (New York Times) WASHINGTON, Sept. 17 - President Bush said today that he had seen no evidence that Saddam Hussein was involved in the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, as the White House tried to correct an assertion that Vice President Dick Cheney left extremely murky on Sunday. Mr. Cheney, on "Meet the Press" on NBC-TV, was asked about polls that showed that a majority of Americans believed that Mr. Hussein had been involved in the attacks. "I think it's not surprising that people make that connection," said Mr. Cheney, who leads the hawkish wing of the Bush administration. Asked whether the connection existed, Mr. Cheney said, "We don't know." He described Mr. Hussein's reported connections to Al Qaeda, connections that American intelligence analysts say were not very deep. Mr. Bush, asked by a reporter today about that statement, said, "No, we've had no evidence that Saddam Hussein was involved with September the 11th."
