I'm sorry if I don't see where you are coming from Lebell.
Who is Bush taking the fight to? The only real fight he is engaging in is with Al Qaeda, and I would hope you don't actually believe that a democrat in the white house would have let that one slide without going after them.
We now know that Iraq was not necessary whatsoever and David Kay has reacted to Tenet's recent speech and thinks it has "raised the possibility that the intelligence community had been telling the White House one thing and the White House had been hearing something else." He said the issue of whether politicians manipulated data to make the case for war "is an important question that needs to be understood".
Finally, we don't disagree on whether or not the fight against terrorism is necessary. We just disagree on the methods we need to use and and the priorities.
You think that fighting Iraq was a goal in the war on terrorism. I think our priorities, and of course much of the money used to fight the Iraq war, should be focused on securing our borders and not firing tens of thousands of policemen, firemen and EMT's. (actually hiring more)
