Originally posted by Spanky The whole "Bush lied" argument is pure politics.

Coming from a Republican, that's a compliment, right?

I seem to recall in prior posts you denied that FDR ever lied.

Better check those posts again.

There is nothing in the constitution that says the president can't lie (of course lying under oath is a whole other matter).

You will also find that the Constitution doesn't say anything about lying under oath, either.

How do you know that the WMDs did not still exist until Bush II started making his threats? Clinton certainly believed that Saddam had WMDs when he left office. They could have been destroyed during Bush II administration just prior to Bush II's invasion. Or they could have been removed to Syria during the invasion, or destroyed during the invasion.

All of these are possible in the non-reality-based universe some conservatives inhabit, but after we occupied Iraq the CIA and others spent a fair amount of time looking into the question.

And Clinton did nothing to get Saddam to remove his WMDs.

If by "did nothing" you mean "bombed and enforced trade sanctions and so on," that's right.
