exactly!
too bad that's not how the war was sold to the rest of the world. It WAS about WMD. that's ALL.
Remember? it was only 5 years ago.
why are all of you neocons this effing stupid?
I don't remember getting that impression during the pre-war buildup. I'm being completely honest too. It always boggles my mind how the left jams this point down everyone's throat when such a simpleton like myself NEVER once got that impression.
As an established Neocon, I would say that WMD was given as the primary and focal reason, although they were very careful to include other points. The left prefers to ignore those, the right tends to overemphasize them since they F'ed up on the WMD part.
I am sure that if we had found WMD the left would be running around screaming "you said that war was to establish a working Democracy and that hasn't happen so the war is a failure!!!!"
That is just as silly as saying that had they been found, the right would have hailed Bush as a prophet and enlisted.
