OK maybe you can argue that invading Iraq may not have been in our strategic interest. But kicking Saddam out of power was not the moral thing to do. Please. Tell that to the Kurd and Shiite families that lost family members.

I doubt that liberals - I mean the really virulent ones, not the normal people - care one whit about Iraq, or Saddam, or any of that stuff. Bush was for it - and therefore, since they have no real positions themselves, they are against it. Had we not invaded, and then found out that SH had WMD's, they'd be crowing for Bush's head. It's not a position, nor is it morality - it's opportunistic positioning. But, simply to see them all come out in opposition to freeing women in those societies, to come out in favor of dropping walls on gays, against people choosing their own leaders, in support of the killing off of people based on race - well, it's been entertaining.
