And he's a non-issue. We didn't go there to get rid of him. We went there to stake a claim in the middle east. We went there as part of the Neocon Manifest Destiny.
Is there anyone who doesn't believe that if Bush were tried for lying and willful ignorance on Iraq he wouldn't be convicted?

You can tell the families of the victims in the killing fields (and the victims of his sons) that Saddam Hussein was a non issue and was "contained in every conceivable regard".
I think the Kurds and Shiites that suffered under his regime would also disagree with your characterization of him being a "poor sap".
