What - you think I'm saying that Bush was right about that? No way. He was wrong. As was the whole informed world. As I've said many times, that was a fuck-up, but it was a supportable belief, a logical belief, a widely-shared belief, and, even if such a belief is held uncertainly, I think it warrants action before we get a form of confirmation that we don't want to see.
(Actually, I know that you DON'T think that I've been saying that Bush was right about that. What I know is that you've been left with absolutely no support for the "lies" stuff, and you're grabbing any port in a storm - even illogical ones that make every reader simply roll their eyes and go "sheesh". There were no WMD's - WE GET IT! And that still doesn't change my view of Bush's honesty in pursuing this course of action.)
