... the extent some will go to in order to convince themselves that Bush didn't make a titanic foul-up with his Iraq invasion.
So, you think the UN Security Council was wrong when they unanimously approved Resolution 1441 and confirmed Iraq was in material breach of its disarmament obligations?
For what? For believing what Clinton, UNSCOM, and the UN Security Council told them?
Saddam did have chemical weapons at the time Clinton took office but didn't maintain/renew them. Have Bush/Cheney ever thought that things can change in 10 years? Are they idiots without the ability to think for themselves?
Clinton obviously did not feel the need to invade Iraq!

I'll be honest here, although it may hurt some Bushophiles.
I don't give a crap about UN resolutions. And no one else does, either.
Bush cherry picked faulty intel when there was plenty that was accurate. He, Cheney, and Rice ran a deliberate campaign of disinformation to manufacture support for their invasion. They sucked in the public and quite a few members of congress.
Then, they horribly mismanaged the whole sordid affair. Iraq will always be remembered as one of the dumbest, worst conceived debacles in US history.
And it will always be attributed to Bush. Along with the quagmire he mismanaged in Afghanistan and the 2008 economic meltdown.
AND the UN Security Council unanimously approved Resolution 1441 acknowledging Iraq's material breach of its disarmament obligations, in November of 2002.

No. Bush believed the intel provided by Clinton, UNSCOM, and the UN as recently as November 2002. If any of that intel was faulty, Clinton, UNSCOM, and the UN need to answer for that.
Clinton in his own words as he signed the Iraq Liberation Act...

It wasn't 10 years. The UN Security Council resolution acknowledging Iraq's material breach of its disarmament obligations was unanimously approved in November of 2002.

So you agree, Democrats and the UN cannot be trusted.

Clinton FAILED to achieve his goal of liberating Iraq before the end of his presidency. Bush achieved that goal. And yes, it took a MULTINATIONAL invasion to do so. The U.S. didn't act alone.
AND the UN Security Council unanimously approved Resolution 1441 acknowledging Iraq's material breach of its disarmament obligations, in November of 2002.
When did Clinton say they had WMD's?
Also that's amazing he wasn't even president, but ordered the war in iraq in 2001,...
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. They looked at them and catalogued.
