Trump certainly sound like Obama when he was talking about George Bush. If there weren’t WMD’s how did Saddam Hussein use them? Why did we keep finding left overs for many years to come? Yes, Saddam exaggerated what he had, but there was enough WMD’s to worry about. Plus I don’t know anyone even on the liberal side that blames Bush for 9-11. That was just way off. This really could be Trump’s downfall.
Check it out:
Donald Trump and Jeb Bush argue over Iraq, 9/11 and weapons of mass destruction at Saturday night’s debate moderated by CBS News. Trump addresses comments in made in 2008 where he said he was not surprised then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi didn’t try to impeach Bush over Iraq.
“The World Trade Center came down during the reign of George Bush,†Trump said to a strong reaction from the audience. “That’s not keeping us safe.â€
“George Bush made a mistake. We can make mistakes. But that one was a beauty. We should have never been in Iraq. We have destabilized the Middle East,†Trump said.
“You call it whatever you want. I will tell you. They lied. They said there were weapons of mass destruction and there were none. And they knew there were none. There were no weapons of mass destruction,†Trump ripped Bush.

There is a lot of that going around on Free Republic these days.
“We lost over 3,000 Americans on September 11th, 2001, larger than Pearl Harbor, and that was on your boy Bush’s watch.”
Had you posted that in 2001/2002, you would have been run off of FR as a damned liberal liar.
All true.
One thing: you CANNOT "tone" muscle. It became a euphemism in the 1980's because women did NOT want to hear the truth. Muscles can only be strengthened or stretched...not TONED.
Women, however, bought into that stupidity 100%. Stupid women. I am a woman and KNEW that it was STUPID to say that one's muscle could be TONED. STUPID, stupid, stupid.
Women STUPIDLY thought that if they lifted three ounces a month they would look like Governator Schwarzenegger. DUMB.
TONE has ONLY to do with color and music/sound. NOT with muscle.
Thangew.
Bush isn't a good conservative but the reason we have Obama is because the powers of the world made sure the financial collapse happened exactly in time to get Obama in. At the time evidence was proving that it was manufactured, but of course the media buried it as quickly as it came to the surface. They all juggled it just right. Before the collapse McCain and Palin were likely heading for the WH.
As far as the financial collapse the Bush Administration pleaded with those in charge in Congress (democrats) to reign in the mess. The democrats accused them of being racist and said all was well. The democrats were in charge of that whole mess and wouldn't budge no matter how much the Bush Administration over the years pleaded with them to reign it in. The fault strongly and squarely belongs to the democrats.
Hafiz Assad and Saddam Hussein were the evil twins. Basher, Hafiz's son, is really not better. He may have had all the Western education in the world, but his upbringing was the worst it could be. Fruit doesn't fall too far from the tree.
I think these fellows are covering for their boy, Bill Clinton. The stink of Clintonista is starting to show itself on this thread.
The Bush family were, are a curse upon America, he open the floodgates for third worlders and Muslims, then to top it off had thousands of young Americans killed in a useless war because Saddam didn’t like his daddy. Go french kiss another Saudi King Georgie.
Do you want to win? This is going to be used again Hillary who voted for the stupid war. She is going down. Not the Republicans. Wake Up. This is not 2004 anymore. We have way more facts on that waste of money war. Please live in the present. Nobody on Earth (except you) is sticking up for the Iraq War.
George W. Bush - 02/16/2001 United States airplanes attack Iraqi radar sites to enforce a "no-fly zone." Bush calls the military action a “routine mission". February 16, 2001
Although we had right to run these "routine missions", Clinton hadn't been. IMHO
“Saddam HAD WMD, but moved them to Syria before the war. “
We have evidence that trucks drove to the border, but no evidence of nukes as they claimed. For all we know, it was Sadam’s moving van of valuable things to set up a headquarters in exile.
The intelligence knew before the memo of Aug. 6th about the planes flying into skyscrapers, but not about the plans, dates, or how these would be carried out-or where, except to say that this would occur against American assets. That’s why the flying lessons without learning how to land and Moussawi and the lot of it being kept in the dark made the Clintons a crucial part of what occurred.
The Clintons were STILL powerful enough to make sure Mansoor Ijaz testified about warning both Bill and Hillary about Bin Laden-and, perhaps trying to negotiate getting Bin Laden sent to the US- behind closed doors. IIRC, Ijaz is now out of the US.
Yes. Lieberals did everything in their power to destroy W. And us. Pelosi, H3ll, and one other person (Kerry?) went to Turkey and prevailed in getting Turkey to deny the US the ability to strike Iraq from the North. THAT rests clearly on the Dems. I remember being surprised that 2 women went to do the job to a men-oriented moslem nation to do this.
At least Bill Clinton looks more and more like Dorian Gray. I hope his veins are on fire and that they are both in excruciating pain for the rest of their miserable lives and after that forever.
You guys are so stupid. He is using this for the General cuz stupid Hillary voted for the war. It is BRILLIANT. Gosh you guys are always on the wrong side. Wake up it is not 2004. Americans can’t stand the Iraq war.
Bush is pure unadulterated globalist, he never met a cheap labor donor he didn’t like. He kicked open our southern border and invited in the scum of South America and Mexico into our homes. ____Him.
“Nobody on Earth (except you) is sticking up for the Iraq War.”
Guess again. I have and will. Better to kill extremists in Iraq and Afghanistan by the hundred thousand than kill them one by one on playgrounds in the USA. But then, I deployed there, as did two of my kids, my SIL, and the husbands of both my nieces.
Bush “Jobs Americans won’t do” lied through his teeth, about pretty much everything.
it’s amazing. People are willing to embrace crazy ass liberal conspiracy theories in order to remain united with the donald — and it’s flying on FR.
Every time he says it, Trump loses another vote.
Yeah......I am sure. he is near 50 percent of the vote now.....in 5 days, he will lose 100 votes......big whoop. No wonder you are a Cruz supporter..........you have no sense of winning.
One night, after the 2008 meltdown, someone with apparent experience in the Chicago Board of Trade posted on here how he watched the meltdown start - in Chicago. He went into some depth about tracing it and how he figured what was happening. I read his posts with interests at the time, and, then didn’t see him after that.
The 2008 financial meltdown was also a 9/11 event.
