I looked at the information presented and said to myself, "WMD or no WMD, it doesn't matter if that is true or not, Saddam Huessin should have been removed from power during the first gulf war."
You feel chafed for being lied to, it's not much different when Bush I did with NO NEW TAXES, Clinton did with IS or SEX, or Obama doing it now with BETTER TRANSPARENCY. I don't. I know the politicians are going to lie. That's part of their job, and it's going to happen again.
Intentions are not the same as actions, I'm more interested in judging by actions, not the intentions. His intent was to remove Mr. Heussein from power at any cost, I understood that from the beginning.
