Mike, buying the party line doesn't make you a member of the party, just someone who buys into what they are saying. You are trying to read things into my posts that just aren't there. Your gotta admit, your pretty much repeating the current administration line on this issue. (and I am sure you will point out where it differs for me, I couldn't find those differences)
The reasons given for the war in Iraq by Bush had to do with WMD, failure to follow the UN deadlines, and (the kicker) fact that Saddam would likely give these weapons to his buddy Osama. Invading Iraq was made into a "war on terrorism" thing.
OIL? You think it is about oil? You didn't a year ago... nope, then it was all about them WMDs and terrorists... I mentioned it being about oil and maintaining the flow of the millions of barrels of oil and you (and many others here) made fun of the comments. I find it highly amusing to watch everyone changing their opinions and ending up on the square on the board that I started on.
Attacking Iraq hasn't stopped a single Terrorist act in America... and it has lead to scores of terrorist attacks on Americans inside Iraq.
