Your arguments are plainly untrue.

The US had DOZENS of allies in Iraq.

Several of those allies put troops on the ground and died beside us: Britain, Poland, and Australia are three good examples.

Weapons of mass destruction were found:

The Duelfer report said that from the beginning. Bush had the intellectual honesty to say we did not find “large” stockpiles. Dissidents exaggerated the threat posed from the limited weapons he self evidently had when we invaded in 2003.

It irritates me greatly that “faux conservatives” brandish their authentic conservatism by bashing Bush as fake.

The real problem with American war fighting is that so many of these authentic conservatives are willing to play along with American media distortions like “Bush lied on WMD” and thereby undermining both the success and meaning of our success in war.

America has “lost” all wars since Vietnam because Americans refuse to stand up to the media bullies who say war is always wrong no matter who the enemy is.

I can guarantee you that Saddam Hussein will never threaten the world ever again. It was not a fake war and it is disrespectful to our heroes that fought and died there.

The new Iraqi caliphate Bagdadi told his American captors as he walked out of jail in 2009 that he would see them in New York. The cavalier terror ambition is the direct result of people selling out a great leader: George W. Bush.

Obama is the anti-thesis of Bush. Pretending to hate Bush and Obama is ridiculous. Hatred of Bush is part and parcel of supporting Obama. Too few Bush critics are willing to be specific. Instead, we are treated to grand hyperbole about what a complete loser and liar Bush is.

That is the problem— not President Bush.

“Bush had the intellectual honesty to say we did not find “large” stockpiles.”

What did he find, the remnants of the chemical weapons we sent in the 1980s to deal with Iran?

“The real problem with American war fighting is that so many of these authentic conservatives are willing to play along with American media distortions like “Bush lied on WMD” and thereby undermining both the success and meaning of our success in war.”

There was nothing “conservative” about that staged war; do you think George Washington would have initiated it? The real problem with American war fighting is that the next regime might just about it (regardless of the reasons it was launched).

“I can guarantee you that Saddam Hussein will never threaten the world ever again. It was not a fake war and it is disrespectful to our heroes that fought and died there.”

What has replaced Saddam is a horror visited on Iraqi civilians daily. The midnight retreat was disresepctful to those who fought & died there.

“The new Iraqi caliphate Bagdadi told his American captors as he walked out of jail in 2009 that he would see them in New York. The cavalier terror ambition is the direct result of people selling out a great leader: George W. Bush.”

Odd, considering it was 15 Saudis (our “allies”) that took part in 9/11 - and not a single Iraqi.

Wish they had a thumbs up/thumbs down up button on comments here, like some forums have. I would have given a thumb up to yours.
