I supported the invasion
Flame this public confession if you must, but I am one who supported the invasion. I figured Bush and Co knew things about Iraqi nukes that I couldn't know. I knew the war would go badly, and that we would inflame hatred and increase terrorism. But the short-term imperative of disarming Iraq trumped other considerations. I believed Bush for two reasons: 1.) If he was lying, so I thought, his administration would crumble the moment the lie came to light. And 2.) NOBODY would lie about nuclear weapons... would they?
Four years and half-a-million deaths later, I am determined to bring and end to this catastrophic mistake, and to hold those lying SOBs to account. A NY Times editorial today called for the US to leave Iraq "without furhter delay". They're a bunch of hypocrites. But I thank them for their editorial.

why is it that no other country has said that bush lied. canada, australia, italy, spain, and a dozen other countries, not even france, germany and russia have said that. because most if not all of these countries intelligence said the same thing. I just wish just once you liberals would put aside your blind hate for bush and the republicans and just think clearly for one second.
BTW do a little research on all the corruption between france, germany, russia and the UN with iraq to understand why they were all so against going into iraq. even with the fact that we ruined their good times with iraq, they are yet to say bush lied
