Many Democrats believed Saddam Hussein had WMDs.

Did they want a massive land invasion ? NO !!!!

They could have had that when Clinton was president, if they had wanted it.

They wanted (at most) air and missile strikes:

"[W]e urge you, after consulting with Congress, and consistent with the U.S. Constitution and laws, to take necessary actions (including, if appropriate, air and missile strikes on suspect Iraqi sites) to respond effectively to the threat posed by Iraq's refusal to end its weapons of mass destruction programs." - Letter to President Clinton. - (D) Senators Carl Levin, Tom Daschle, John Kerry, others, Oct. 9, 1998.

WMDs in Tokyo, the capitol city of the nation that bombed Pearl Harbor:

Yup, that's what a drowning man does. The Bush supporters are drowning in their own hypocrisy and self-deceit.

I'll really be "Glays_Over" [glad it's over] when the GOP inevitably faces the consequences in the presidential elections of November 2008.

There's no way they'll walk away from this fiasco.

"In 1994, the Japanese religious sect Aum Shinrikyo released an impure form of sarin in Matsumoto, Nagano Prefecture. In 1953 they released an impure form of sarin in the Tokyo subway."

RE: "Polish Forces recovered 41 Sakr-18 rockets in June and July 2004. Of the rockets tested one contained residual sarin, five contained petroleum and a pesticide, and the remainders were empty..." - pwrslm

Nothing found in Iraq couldn't also be found in Poland, with a little searching.

You don't justify a dumb war like the one in Iraq, by citing "WMD"s that could easily be found in any other nation on earth.

At a time when we should all be united behind a common goal of defeating terrorists and finishing the job in Iraq, the Democrat leadership is contradicting and lying about what they said in the past, emboldening terrorists with public talk of retreat, backstabbing our soldiers...

Their Party Symbol fits them perfectly.

So for 10 Years Ms. Pelosi was on an Intelligence Committee that kept tabs on Iraq and WMDs, but suddenly she claims Bush lied to her about it?

Talk about a hypocritical, dishonest, back-stabbing, opportunistic... person.

BAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHA You poor simple minded Fascist must be the ONLY people on this planet who still by Sir Lies-A-Lots story on the Intel. It's widely know NOW that the intel was Cherry Picked by this Administration to start a war that THEY wanted, not one the PEOPLE needed. If you Fascist are going to remain in the debate you HAVE to stay informed at least a little. Sieg Heil Y'all. ROFLMAO

Now why doesn't it surprise me that a Fascist DOES NOT understand our system of Government. What I can't understand is how you can ask our troops to fight for something you aren't willing to extend to your fellow citizen? That DEMOCRAT LEADERSHIP that you find so upsetting was PLACED there in the LAST ELECTION by the AMERICAN PEOPLE to do exactly what they are doing. Maybe FAILURE and INCOMPETENCE is okay with you Southern Fascist but the rest of us like our Government OF the PEOPLE and By the PEOPLE. Sieg Heil Y'all!!
