Damn!
That is the best reason I've heard yet. So you're saying that the threat of lawsuits against the U.S. is preferable to Bush exposing to not only the U.S. - but the rest of the world that we had justification for the war in Iraq?
One could reason that he wasn't responsible for what happened then, because he wasn't president. I'm still not totally convinced that on a cost benefit analysis that it wouldn't be preferable to expose this.
What say you?
I believe it will get exposed...in time. IMHO, it depends on the legalities involved in the pending transfer of power in Iraq. Once Iraq is governed by the Iraqis, can they be held responsible for what Saddam perpetrated in the past? I would think not...and it would be foolish for anyone to attempt to blame the Iraqi people when they were clearly victims of Saddam themselves. As I stated above, the best time to b***h-slap the lefties with this info would be right after the transfer of power. That may be what they are waiting on...strategery...don't ya know : )
