[Reagan Man]

What I see are US govt officials, becoming a little frustrated about the lack of evidence turning up in Iraq, so far. The anti-Bush crowd are the ones who don't trust PresBush and keep pushing the theory that Bush and Company have lied to the American people about Saddam having had programs that produced WMD. A ridiculous assertion to make.

Face it, you simply don't trust the Bush administration either.

Before the war started, PresBush and his people said time and again that WMD, fighting terrorism and freedom for the Iraqi people were the three reasons for removing Saddam Hussein from power. All SecWolfowitz did was repeat those reasons in an interview with the liberal magazine Vanity Fair and from that, all hell broke loose. The leftwing is desperate and will try anything to devalue the accomplishments of PresBush. Sorry you don't see it that way. Right now, most Americans don't care that actual WMD haven't turned up yet. That position may change at some future time, but for now the American people give PresBush high grades for his handling of the Operation Iraqi Freedom and the overall war on terrorism.

One of three reasons? Interesting turn of phrase. Just a couple months ago, it was usually stressed as the main one. Funny, how freepers who seemed to used scare tactics about WMD as their lead argument (present company accepted of course) are now hedging in this interesting Clintonesque manner of putting it on equal plane with formerely less important reasons.

You are right about one thing. I don't blindly trust politicians, regardless of what party they belong to.
