For the last time, read the Congressional Joint Resolution for the Use of Military Force in Iraq. This will spell out all the reasons the US military was deployed. The "Bushistas" haven't changed why we went to Iraq. However, whatever the media happens to blow up and spoon feed to you as the daily reason, has changed. Don't be so friggin naive.

...and where does the media get its stories to spoon feed us poor naive simpletons? From the US Administration.
It it was all about this resolution why not just state this and keep repeating it until they are blue in the face. They don't because it turns out they were wrong.
I can't believe you are relying on a UN resolution to defend this invasion. When was the last time the current Administration or any of its toadies seriously got behind ANY UN resolution? Only when it served their own interests.
Hans Blix, the guy in charge of the UN weapons inspections and Mohammad Baradei, the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency BOTH felt they were making satisfactory progress in Iraq. The US Administration decided, "Fuck Saddam, we're taking him out."
War was not the solution to this problem. The solution would have taken decades and the US Administration only had 2 to 3 more years before the next election to look like they were doing something. Sadly, the flower strewn parades they dreamed of never came to pass... I really wish it could have been that simple. It never is.
