You know, things are not absolute. Bush could be right about this one thing but wrong about others. Everyone seems to be placing all their eggs in one basket.
Even in this case:
A democratic and free Iraq = Good thing BUT...
WMD - no
Threat to US - no
Remove Saddam - yes
You have to separate the issues when analyzing them and put them in their proper context. Haphazardly matching results with intentions is sloppy at best.
It is definitely a good thing that the election went "well". However, that is not the reason why we went there in the first place. Elections are sort of a happy side-effect or afterthought to an invasion gone wrong.
Anyways, we need to give any given policy time to guage its effectiveness.
