See what Trump has brought us to? Ammo for the dems.

Wake up. This is gold for Republicans. Trump is going to use this against Hillary in the General cuz she stupidly voted for the war. You need to catch up. You are still living in 2004 when everyone was cheerleading the vicious lies by the Bush Administration. Get with 2016. New Era and Trump is winning.

I think GWB did think they had WMD’s, I also think they were sent to Syria before we got there. We still found some caches anyway, so if there was any lying it was that nothing was found.
Something like 500 pounds of nuclear materiel was shipped out of the country for safe disposal.

It was still a mistake to topple Saddam.

It was a bigger mistake to pull out completely as Obama did.
That created the vacuum for ISIS.
Supplying anyone but the Kurds was a mistake as well. There are NO moderate rebels.

Since they apparently were there throughout the Clinton Administration, I have always asked, where did they go once Bush was in office?

BS - Billy Clinton acknowledged Saddam had them in the 90’s. Germany and England agreed and the CIA confirmed.

Colo Powell is a scumbag now, he has proved he has no loyalty to the country that gave him a career he could have never achieved in any other country and only did here because of his color. He was only a talented administrator and couldn’t command a squad competently in battle.

Osama Bin Laden destroys the world trade center buildings. Then we retaliate against Saddam Hussain who had nothing to do with 911 and didnt have WMDs. Mission Accomplished!!!

Its smart politically to remind the masses just how incompetent the Bush dynasty is just as it as important to remind everyone how corrupt the Clinton Dynasty is! Otherwise we may end up with one of them!

I believe there were some WMDs in Iraq. I also believe they were not a threat to the U.S. IMO Cheney pushed Bush into the invasion. Since they left office I do not see any interaction between them and Bush let scooter twist in the wind IMO because he was upset.

This war was a disaster for US. it led to us dwelling on the Mid East while domestic issues were failing. In the end it gave us Obama which will be a millstone on the neck of our nation for at least 20years assuming hitlery is not elected. The Scalia death is almost a knockout punch too.

I supported bush because he was our guy. I regret doing that up to the point of considering how much worse algore or Lurch would have been.

The primary casus bellum was that there were, allegedly, active WMD procurement and production programs and large stockpiles of WMDs that posed a "threat to the national security of the United States and international peace and security in the Persian Gulf region." We were told about anthrax programs and nuclear enrichment programs. That turned out to be completely false. Our invasion created a bigger threat to US security than existed at the time. George Bush made the call. The same people advising him on foreign policy are the people advising Jeb Bush on foreign policy.

Jeb Bush should not be mocking anybody's foreign policy credibility.

Bill Clinton went around to various cities to drum up support for going into Iraq to take out Saddam Hussein.

Bush thought Saddam tried to assassinate his father. Nothing else mattered but to get revenge.
