There was absolutely no benefit. It made Iran stronger, the US weaker, and provided a training ground for terrorists.

Will you stop with that baloney? Several investigation showed that the Bush administration did not "lie us into a war."

The correct phrase is Tea Party.

I have been on the **** end of war, and am still getting the same fecal matter sent my way. You, and your bull**** mentality, can take a flyin' leap off the first short drop to the bottom.. You can sit out there and make fun of the pain I have felt, and I have just as much right to tell you you are an ass!! HEEEE HAWWWW!!! You are CLUELESS!! As are your ilk. Do us all a favor, just spit on the next soldier you see IN PUBLIC, and quit hiding behind your computer. Sorry folks , but this kind of crap is feeding me up to the gills!!! Coming off as soooooo intelligent and well versed in the ways of the world, yet truly, being such an idiot, and thinking they are talking to a poser! Turn that 2 fingers back man.................

I'll bet you don't have links to those investigations.

What benefit did the Iraq war have?

1. Provided a training ground for future terrorists.

2. Gained the U.S. the opportunity to train and equip future enemies ala Afghanistan, 1979 - 1989.

Started off as tea baggers (how seriously dumb was that?). Now they are tea partiers. I hear FOX is brilliant at pointing out such "flip flops". Let us see what they are called a few more months from now...

I think "tea baggers" is more correct. They don't have a mind of their own, they only serve to please their pundits.

Wasn't FOX the first network to label them Tea Baggers?

Look in the mirror. If you see your image, it means you are still alive. That is one huge benefit of the war...
