Sounds like the ends justifies the means.

Is that what you are saying? Do you really mean you don't care if the president lied or exaggerated or was merely trying to stage-manage us into a war that he had antecedently cared about?

Sounds like you may value Bush more than you value the institutions of democracy. Sort of a soviet-style cult of personality but on the right.

No. I'm saying an Executive admin needn't have their every move & action reported to, nor dissected by, the media-types.
A decision making process is just that, a method to arrive at a decision. How anyone in the press thinks this is their business to know is incredulous. Especially since the source(s) the Bush admin used possibly can't be publicized, for security, safety, or whatever reason.

And we're getting away from the main point, which is: Bandow, and everyone else, (even Clinton & the U.N.), knows the Hussein regime had WMD's in the 90's.
Maybe Bandow believes Saddam had an epiphany and destroyed them.
