Yes, and SH had slaughtered and tortured his own people as well as the kurds. The problem with Iraq was when the bureaucrats like L. Paul Bremer decided to ‘nation build’. That’s where we started to lose it. We should have stopped after we got Saddam and then left. Take out the dictator and leave and tell the Iraqis they are on their own. We will take a percentage of their oil as payment and be on our merry way.

The left did not help our cause with their constant attacks on Bush and the military.

Amazing how the left supported the war until the terrorist had time to form an opposition force, then right on queue, the terrorist went on the attack and the left went on the attack against Bush at the same time.

Well, that “surge” that came years later should have been done immediately - imagine Iraq being stable in 2006 and our troops withdrawing prior to the 2008 elections.

That wouldn’t have stopped Mark Foley or the financial collapse, but at least that would not have been an issue...both politically and more importantly for the good of the people in Iraq and our military.

Those attacks on Bush and our troops came courtesy of Soros and his 10 million dollar campaign to demonize Bush.
Bastard that he is.

Btw, doesn’t barry still use Halliburton?
