How does Slobama justify it? We're still there in spite of his promises. How does he justify Gitmo? We're still there in spite of his promises.
Lets hear it, libs. Starting with the OP.
this is surprising.
this is Obama's war.
its been his for over two years now.
He made a HUGE deal during the election that HE would IMMEDIATLY get "us" out of Irag and AsStain,
what a lying bag of crap he turned out to be,
Bush's war ?
not hardly.
Iraq is 110% barry obama's war...
You're one of those "low information" voters whom the Republic party relies on to win elections. Obama promised to double down on Afghanistan and get us out of Iraq. On Dec. 31, 2011, we're going to be out of Iraq.
Excellent information in that link, Darkatt. Covers everything from start to finish and if the "born again anti-Iraq War-Bush-lied liberals" would only read it, they would know that almost the entire Democrat representation both in Congress and out of it were supportive of it. Bush did everything right in going about it constitutionally. Can the same be said of Obama and Libya?
But you omit the fact that Bush lied. And all the intelligence, all the dire claims of WMD, all the intimation that Saddam was allied with al Qaeda took place over a year long time frame, daily, until it came up for a vote in October of 2002.
So everyone who voted for this resolution did so on the falsified claims made by the Bush Administration. Had they of not been misled they would likely not have given him authorization to go to war.

How come they did not fool Ron Paul?
The we were dumber than GW argument is pretty damn weak.
The usual lame justification is that Iraq violated UN sanctions and Congress voted to fund it.
The reality is UN sanctions are cherry-picked when it suits our agenda and Bush himself has stated that HE made the decision to go to war, there is no other justification other than a bill of goods sold with USA! USA! USA! rhetoric in the aftermath of (no Iraqi involvement) 9/11.
Not Bush's war.
Congress voted for it. The people overwhelmingly wanted retribution.
The intelligence pointed there.
Why are you guys constantly bringing this up? Do we not have enough problems today for you that you need to rehash old controversies?
Whether its Iraq;afganistan or Libya its all the same.Iraq eassiest as Saddma did not liveup to terms of ceasefirde after dessert storm;Afganistan habor terroist trasning that were responsibl;e for 9-11 and numberous other terrorist bombing. Libya is pure regime change in support of the so called rebels.Libya has not been part of any terrorist attcks since Pan AM and even Britain relased the convicted terrorist on that.There may be other reasons as I do not get national secirity briefings.
Since it's obvious that the Bush Admin. lied us into a war against an innocent nation, and since the invasion/occupation has resulted in a tremendous loss of innocent life, how do you justify this war/occupation?
Some of us do not justify it and recognize it as an illegal war of aggression. But most people don't view it in such terms. Since many conservatives justify this war, I'm wondering your rationale.
The contractors that work for the DOD are not complaining.
There's no business like war business. Blood money runs this country. Disgusting.
