Why blame Bush for Lying about Saddam Having WMD when democrats lied to?

Because it isn't as catchy to say Clinton lied millions died...

In all honesty, I think the Dems believe their own lies.

Convenient how little minor details are forgotten, kind of like it's Bush's war, when it was congress, both Democrats and Republicans that voted to invade (to include Clinton, I guess Obama would have voted present) but it is not politically expedient for the left to admit the truth. But concerning WMD's, the intel community was misled in a number of cases by Iraqi exiles as well as Saddam shortly before his execution admitting he wanted the world to believe he had them and lets not even mention the fact that Iraq is a huge country and maybe just maybe WMD's or the ability to manufacture them is hidden somewhere still. In Germany they are still finding underground facilities over 60 years after WWII ended so everyone can say for sure with absolute certainty that Iraq did not have WMD's when invaded and or does not have them now even.

There is a world of difference between believing that Saddam is a dangerous tyrant who probably has access to WMD, and actually dragging a nation to war based on an accusation without any evidence. It's a big stretch to believe that a Democrat government would have invaded Iraq - hell, without Cheney and Rummy, it's doubtful Bush would have done it.

I suppose Bush couldn't rely on his real motives to convince people:

"We believe that Iraq is in possession of a large supply of sweet sweet oil wells and tasty combustible resources, and My friend Dick and I have a real hard-on about the idea of invading them, even though we haven't really thought through the long-term consequences for America, so we ask that you blindly accept whatever ill-conceived excuses we can provide for initiating a war, which may result in decades of costly occupation and bloodshed, but hey, wow, look at all that $OIL$...."

I have no sympathy for any politician who endorsed that war, democrat or otherwise, but let's not be naive about the ways of politics - politicians can be forced to support something they disagree with in order to protect their position.

Quotes from Clinton were in defense of his policy of putting in place the sanctions and inspections that were proven to have worked.

The quotes from Levin and Graham just prove that some people believed Bush's lies.

The devil is in the detail. The fact of the matter is that Bush and his administration knowingly misrepresented intelligence about Uranium from Niger and anodized aluminum tubes. You presenting vague quotes from Democrats does not change that fact and simply reeks of desperation.

And no the Dems did not authorize for Bush to invade Iraq. They authorized Bush to use military force to enforce the UN resolutions, not one of which called for invasion, ongoing occupation or regime change. Sorry but it is you who fails.

We learned from the Clinton years that it is okay for the President to lie to the people. I am surprised that the Democrats made a big deal out of this as they were the ones who made this rule.

Kinda looks like Bushie didn't lie in the eyes of Democrats that counted, huh? Libbies are so gullable!

Even Saddam's own top scientist know where the WMDs went!

Very good point. Another question might be why do you still support the "right" when you accept them as liars?

For me, if there are two leaders in my company and both of them lie to me, I would move to another company or support a possible 3rd leader, not support one of them over the other. Seemingly you would accept getting the shaft, is that right?

They think the Bush administration can travel back in time and do things before there was any such thing as the Bush administration. You aren't dealing with the brightest people.

Saddam was a madman with one hell of a lot of money and all the inclination to serve out what he deemed as his god given talent for destruction.

How many of these pieces of Pos do we have to take out before liberals realize we are trying to rid the world of venomous snakes?

Because all of the quotes you just put up were based on information the bush administration gave to them. And for the most part information that was made up.

When we went into Iraq in 2004. We were told in the Army that There WERE NO WMD's. And that we didn't even need to look. Because all of the Military intell bush had used to build his case, Was false or very out dated.
