The intel on Iraq's WMDs came from the Clinton Admin. If any lies were told, they came from them:

Ask Clinton.

Did Clinton lie about Iraq's WMDs? Or did they somehow just magically disappear when Bush was elected?

Iraq had WMDs when Clinton was president, and this is a well known fact. There was a massive campaign to get rid of them, which was successful. Clinton did not present evidence calming there were WMDs in Iraq in 2002. Bush did. Get used to it.

Interesting...

Please tell me about Clinton's months long media campaign to build public support for his Iraq invasion and then how he flushed trillions down the crapper with his failed invasion, leaving a record deficit and debt to his successor.

It's hard to take seriously the idea that Republicans were ever going to work with President Obama seriously, when his whole campaign in '08 was so scrutinized and derided by the GOP and conservatives at large. Remember when Sen. McCain had to snatch the microphone from a woman saying, "He's an Arab," etc? That type of rhetoric was par for the course.

Then when on Obama's inauguration night, Rep. Paul Ryan and others met to discuss how to make Obama a "one term president", it was obvious they were never going to seriously work with him. The level of disrepect shown to our president has been historic and unprecedented. I suppose maybe you could go back to Abraham Lincoln for a comparable comparison.

That is interesting you picked Lincoln to compare Obama to.

Obama IMO see himself as a "Lincoln".......if I remember right he used the Lincoln Bible to be sworn into office.

I have a small business.....Obama made it very plain he would like to take from me and give it to others.

Well that was not going to happen......so I went into defensed.....I took steps to counter Obama.

I made no major purchases until I had to......I pulled all of my money out of banks....with the exception of my business account.

I was not a big Bush fan......but, at no time did I see him as my enemy.

If I did not agree with him.....I always thought he loved the USA.

Obama told me he wanted to "fundamentally change" it.

""There was a time not so long ago when Americans, regardless of their political stripes, rallied round their president."
There have always been people critical of the President. This is a fantasy to go along with the "poor Mr. Obama - people are mean to him" narrative.

And the little fact that they found WMD's (although admittedly in a decomposed state) means there were in fact WMD's there..

Guess they didnt really get rid of them, but you guys never know what you are talking about.
