Mike, if you go back and view posts from that time, you will see that YES, I doubted there were WMD in Iraq. The inspectors that were there should have found SOMETHING, or at least good solid hints of something. Instead, they saw nothing, smoke and mirrors, and so on.
Nobody could say for sure, there were some ideas and suggestions, but no real hard evidence. Just "bob said that peter said that paul heard from a guy on a street corner in a city in Iraq that someone might have said that they heard about a weapon being built maybe possibly perhaps".
Bush wanted a war, he got a war. A large number of American soliders will lose their lives, get injured, or just get emotionally affected by this war, all in the name of WMD (no wait, terror, no wait, oil... nope, hang on, he didn't use that one yet!).
Your President used less than factual information to make a choice that will effect so many people. This lie makes the Clinton sex thing look like a kid's party.

PS: JR, well, DUH! I hate Bush. I hate his KIND of person. I hate the power bestowed on someone because of his family and relationships, and not because he is the best man for the job. That blows.
