Well, first off, he didn't lie. Hussein had changed from hoarding Bio/Chem weapons (as far as we know. There are still thousands of rounds that are unmarked that have to be checked. As everyone knows, they were stockpiled that way so the enemy wouldn't be able to tell which is conventional and which is WMD) to J.I.T. manufacturing. Either way, the threat was there.
It was foreign intel that linked Al Quaeda and Hussein for us, we didn't even find that to doctor it!
The only lie was the midstream noise of "Liberate Iraq! Help the Iraqis!" That propaganda pissed me off. I know, during wartime governments use all the PR crap to keep the populace on target, but it still made me mad. How can you "liberate" a group of people that won't even rise against the tyrant by themselves? They didn't lift a finger for liberation, they didn't fight for it, so they will not keep it in the long run.
No, Bush has not done more to destroy our liberties than any other president. Some of the worst E.O's was signed by Kennedy, then Clinton. The Patriot Act was the brainchild of Clinton, he just had no excuse to implement it. Don't get me wrong, Bush is not my hero at all, I just want the record straight is all.
Why do you expect the gas prices to go down? Do you think we should have a direct pipeline flowing from Iraq to the U.S. and her allies? WE aren't about stealing, come on!
OPEC still controls the pertoleum prices with their illegal but tolerated cartel, so there's little we can do.
You know, as far as the conspiracy that Bush knew and/or participated in the 9/11 incident, put up or shut up. Where is anything resembling decent evidence.
