And, I agree with you that the UN resolution was pointless. THAT was part of the problem. The UN would not enforce the resolution, and Saddam was defiant. We HAD to act!
Or else . . . Doomsday!

And as seems your habit, no answers to simple questions.

You've alleged Saddam would have been named by most as the biggest threat against America on 9/10/01.

You have what to support that allegation?
Interesting too that no one asks where Bin Laden is.......where???? and why did a few Saudi get to fly out of the U.S. on the DAY 9/11, as allowed by Bush.........(read: House of Bush, House of Saud-Unger)

Thus, you label a documentary as a "hollywood movie".

Of course, it's not a documentary that supports your Bush-apologizing viewpoint, so you just dismiss it out of hand. Yep, you're on top of things and have an accurate view of the events leading to the Great Bush Recession.

You guys are so amusing.

Iraq? The dems did it.

Recession? The dems did it.

Brilliant.

There are a lot of things you doubt because you don't bother to do any research. Are you out of school yet?

And I'm happy to break the news to you that Bush couldn't do ANYTHING WITHOUT the APPROVAL OF CONGRESS.

We don't live under Monarchy rule.

And you're just saying that his campaign of disinformation to manufacture support worked on congress just like it did on the public.

Heck, I bought into it, too. No doubt you did and probably still do.

Update: it was bullsht.
