The author still does not understand that our best 'information gathering sources' told the whitehouse that Iraq had WMDs. The author has allowed the liberal liars to brainwash him into believing their baseless propaganda.
You make a very good point. Roberts perplexes me. Why does he persist in taking positions from the left - like the "Bush lied" idiocy - when he raises many other valid points. Bush is a skilled, professional politician. He must have honestly thought that Iraq had WMD's or he would not have taken the huge political risk of sending Americans to die over there unless there was a valid reason to do so. Even Bill Clinton, depraved as he is, relaized that much after the Somalia debacle.
There's plenty of valid cause to attack the Bush administration over its corrupt China/free-trade-über-alles policies. (Selling our smart bomb factory and its technology to them for starters.) However, picking up any old handy discredited leftist cowpie to hurl at Bush has the unfortunate effect of discrediting any valid arguments the Roberts might make. He makes a common error - letting his emotions run wild to the point where he throws out his own baby with the bath water.
