"Persuaded 57% of Americans, and perhaps himself, that UN inspectors had found banned weapons when they had not "
Actually, the UN inspectors were not to ferret out hidden weapons, but rather to supervise the disarmament process. We know what disarmament looks like, South Africa and Ukraine have done it. Iraq didn't disarm, and noone claims that they had.

"Supreme Court's 5-4 ruling included votes from Justices appointed by his father "
The ruling which mattered was 7-2. After all, it was a federal election. The Florida electors were certified by the state Secretary of State, and that was backed up by the Legislature. The Florida Supreme court had no standing because the Federal Constitution gave the power of selecting electors to the state legislatures. The law passed by the Florida state legislature gave the responsibility to certify the election to the state Secretary of State, not to the State Supreme court.
