In war the ends always justify the means. To think or act otherwise is inviting disaster. I do not think the American people were majorly manipulated by lies and whatnot. You will note who won the election in 2004. All of these 'facts' have been out there and quite frankly most of us dont' care or don't believe them.
For me the obvious conclusion is the straight forward one. The WMD reports were overstated, and Bush acted on the information he had. Had it been nothing but a lie, we wouldn't be having this debate because someone willing to mislead a nation into war would also have planted plenty of 'WMD' evidence. The iroinc thing is its the honesty of the Bush administration which allows people to claim they are dishonest. If the Bush admin was truely as bad and evil as they claim there wouldn't be debate since they would have covered their bases.
