Bush must go? We’re in the process of picking his successor. It’s a little late in the game for that sort of rhetoric, isn’t it?
At any rate, while I’m sure the usual suspects will flock here and try to prove him correct, I really REALLY wonder why everyone is so hot to try to fight that argumement over and over again, especially when they lost it initially, then lost it the 2nd time. Now that we’re into a potentially successful operation over there, the run up to war certainly is a burning question!
I guess it’s the only thing about Iraq that liberals want to discuss now. Suddenly all the hoo-ha over Iraq is suddenly all gone.
I wonder why? |

Wait a second, here! I thought George McGovern had died!
I would too, if I had to listen to that unabashed commie dickwad talk.
Remind me, someone, why McGovern lost 49 states in 1972? |

Speaking of blatant falshoods, how many do you see in that paragraph? I’ve underlined 3 obvious one. You’re right, McQ. In the run-up to the Iraq war, the Bush administration never mentioned nuclear weapons, 9/11, or that Saddam presented any realistic, immediate threat to the United States. Not once.
I’m not saying McGovern has any special insight on what the public believed, but there’s even less reason to believe that you do.
From USA Today, 9/6/2003Poll: 70% believe Saddam, 9-11 link
WASHINGTON (AP) — Nearly seven in 10 Americans believe it is likely that ousted Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein was personally involved in the Sept. 11 attacks, says a poll out almost two years after the terrorists’ strike against this country.
Sixty-nine percent in a Washington Post poll published Saturday said they believe it is likely the Iraqi leader was personally involved in the attacks carried out by al-Qaeda. A majority of Democrats, Republicans and independents believe it’s likely Saddam was involved.
As usual, you will simply ignore facts to the contrary. Or claim that it wasn’t the Bush administration that led people to believe that Saddam was involved in 9/11. Or some other nonsense.
To which on can respond only that your disconnection with reality is so 1/20/01 to 1/20/09. Geez, even Huckabee doesn’t buy your way of thinking anymore.

Yes, yes, here we go again...now MK just shut us Neo_con Rethuglicans up by simply finding an AP, Reuters, UPI, WaPo, NYT, LAT, ChiTrib, Strib quotation WHERE ANYONE IN THE ADMINISTRATION SAID SADDAM HAD ANYTHING TO DO WITH 9/11. After all about 15% of the people believe Bush LIHOP or MIHOP for 9/11. Now does that make it TURE, or simply what people believe?
You keep this story line up and you’re going to keep getting called on it. Sorry the "Big Lie" approach to writing history isn’t going to wash here.

"There has been some debate over how “imminent” a threat Iraq poses. I do believe that Iraq poses an imminent threat, but I also believe that after September 11, that question is increasingly outdated. It is in the nature of these weapons, and the way they are targeted against civilian populations, that documented capability and demonstrated intent may be the only warning we get. To insist on further evidence could put some of our fellow Americans at risk. Can we afford to take that chance? We cannot!"
— John Rockefeller, Oct 10, 2002
"But I do think that the more serious question going forward is, what are we going to do? I mean, we have three different countries that, while they all present serious problems for the United States — they’re dictatorships, they’re involved in the development and proliferation of weapons of mass destruction — you know, the most imminent, clear and present threat to our country is not the same from those three countries. I think Iraq is the most serious and imminent threat to our country.
And I think they — as a result, we have to, as we go forward and as we develop policies about how we’re going to deal with each of these countries and what action, if any, we’re going to take with respect to them, I think each of them have to be dealt with on their own merits.
And they do, in my judgment, present different threats. And I think Iraq and Saddam Hussein present the most serious and most imminent threat."
John Edwards: Fed 24 2002
