Actually, you can. Going to war for oil is the act of someone greedy and morally bankrupt. Not actually getting the oil is basically just incompetent. I see no problem in ascribing all three characteristics to GWB.

have you ever been there....do you know anything about the Iraqi people......

How do YOU know? You likely saw a tiny fraction of the Iraqi people. Whatever they think of Saddams departure thru military force, the resulting chaos has cost hundreds of thousands of innocent lives.

What do you think about that? Those families are permanently affected thru their losses that were incurred because of a U.S. military invasion, and if that is true (it is) then dont you think you DAMN WELL better have had a better reason to start a war than over the lies of an imminent threat?

You dont think the Iraqi people know our lies caused their losses?

The sting of injustice cloaks their newly won, bloody "freedom" from the rule of Saddam Hussein

I hate to defend anything Bush did but "produces a Shia (Islam fundamentalist Iran) government in Iraq" is far, far from accurate.Now, whether it turns into one later, that's another story. I personally doubt it tho. The glorious Islamic Revolution of 1979 is kinda falling apart.

Shocking. Bush, his father, and Obama are all New World Order people.
