Apples and Oranges. Thousands lost their lives based on lies told to the American public
Clinton Admin and UNSCOM lies.
As Biden confirms:
Quote:
MR. RUSSERT: I want to go back to 2002, because it’s important as to what people were saying then and what the American people were hearing. Here’s Joe Biden about Saddam Hussein: “He’s a long term threat and a short term threat to our national security.”
“We have no choice but to eliminate the threat. This is a guy who is an extreme danger to the world.”
“He must be dislodged from his weapons or dislodged from power.” You were emphatic about that.
SEN. BIDEN: That’s right, and I was correct about that. He must be, in fact—and remember the weapons we were talking about. I also said on your show, that’s part of what I said, but not all of what I meant. What I also said on your show at the time was that I did not think he had weaponized his material, but he did have. When, when the inspectors left after Saddam kicked them out, there was a cataloguing at the United Nations saying he had X tons of, X amount of, and they listed the various materials he had. The big issue, remember, on this show we talked about, was whether he had weaponized them. Remember you asked me about those flights that were taking place in southern Iraq, where—were they spraying anthrax? And, you know, what would happen? And, you know, so on and so forth. And I pointed out to you that they had not developed that capacity at all. But he did have these stockpiles everywhere.
MR. RUSSERT: Where are they?
SEN. BIDEN: Well, the point is, it turned out they didn’t, but everyone in the world thought he had them. The weapons inspectors said he had them. He catalogued—they catalogued them. This was not some, some Cheney, you know, pipe dream. This was, in fact, catalogued.
But you don't care one iota about 4 Americans killed in Lybia. Strange how that works.
I care about any Americans that are killed or injured on our behalf. I do think the Ambassador and his group over relied on the tenuous ability of Libyan authorities to protect their going to the remote facility. That was a regrettable mistake on the Ambassador's part. But, that is in no way an equivalent mistake to that of initiating an invasion of Iraq.
So you are not willing to admit that the Bush administration should be prosecuted for the thousands of servicemen that lost their lives based on fabricated evidence used to lie to the American people.
History definitely will not look kindly on Cheney for this! He will go down in history as someone who cost 4000 American lives and bankrupt our country.
"send Cheney, Rummy, etal., a thank you note. " make sure these on your etal list:

Difference is, the additions you list didn't lie about their votes ..
So you are not willing to admit that the Bush administration should be prosecuted for the thousands of servicemen that lost their lives based on fabricated evidence used to lie to the American people.
Why should the Bush administration be prosecuted? They got the WMD intel from the Clinton administration and UNSCOM. Even Biden admits that.
