I got that. My counter point is that there is always conflicting intelligence in any analysis of a complex decision. One can not rely on a single source, Bush or whoever, to buy into going to war.

Then tell the people that there was conflicting intelligence and why you believe in one set of intel over another if you are asking them to sacrifice. Why would that have been so hard for Bush to do?
This decision was not like any decision you or I make...it affected the lives of thousands of American citizens (and millions of Iraqis) and Bush "sold it" iin speeches that were less than completely candid with the American people.
We agree on one thing.....we have different outlooks and perspectives on many things

Congress had the same intelligence I had and I supported the war.

You dont have the responsiblity for making the most informed decisions you can on behalf of thousands of people who entrust you as their voice in government.
