I read that Buchanan was against the war, not that the administration lied.

Sure, they painted Saddam as a bad guy, but it's not like he wasn't. But that doesn't mean that Bush lied us into the war, nor that Trump was right to say what he said the other night.

What you are forgetting is that every single intelligence agency in the world that thought Saddam had those weapons, heck he used them on Iran and the Kurds. What you are forgetting is the intelligence W based it all on was developed by the CIA and cited by Clinton in the late nineties as a reason to go to war with Iraq.

I'm sorry, I'm not going the way of the Cruzers, Trump was more than wrong to say what he said. He should have held a line in a much better place, and now he just made himself look a bit looney.

Just my opinion, but this one thing he said is neither true, nor right.

A mistake is quite different than a lie, and we will never know if it might have worked to some degree had the left NOT done what they did in using the war as an issue, nor what might have happened if the bamster had not left in a huff. It may not have even been a mistake had those two things not happened.

To lay the blame entirely on W was wrong. There were better ways to divorce the GOP from the Bush family.
