Spoken ^^^ like a true
Contard. At the time, no WMD's were found (Sect. Powell's dog and pony show before the world has been shown to be ridiculous), so your dirty little partisan spin is irrelevant.
And, it's not the Democrats who are re-litigating the Iraq invasion and occupation, it's the members of the clown car, each trying to runaway from their parties responsibility for laying the foundation for ISIS, and the collapse of Iraq.

Of course the willfully ignorant and partisans will deny the case presented in the link above, it's the PBS which they have been told is in the pocket of the "leftists".
Your seedy non functioning brain is of no consequence. Proving it doesn't further your case. Yes, WMD were found, regardless of anything Powell. Spinning it doesn't change anything.
An op-ed from CNN to back up your assertions? How cute! obama fucked it up, blaming Republicans while pretending what's going on isn't going on doesn't further your case either.
I'd suggest you've been brainwashed, but your denial of such obvious evidence is such that no working brain is evident. You don't trust the MSM, so where do you get your opinions from?
Much of what I've posted has been gleaned from the Horse's Mouth. I watched Powell, live on TV; I watched Rice, Cheney and Rumsfeld, live and on TV; I've read the Statement of Principles, ginning up a cause for war in Iraq years before 911; I watched the neo cons, members of the RNC and Bush himself lie about WMD's, much like the pols did during press conferences warning of the dangers of Vietnam falling - the Domino Theory. Fear mongering was prevalent then and now.
[We've seen a flood of the Red Scare; fear and hate mongering on political message boards has been common since the first partisan spoke the word "socialism" early on in the the debate to reform health care during the first term of the Clinton Administration.]
I have second hand knowledge that the event in the Gulf of Tonkin, used to justify the escalation of force in SE Asia was a non event [I ran into a guy I knew from High School on base - 32nd St. in San Diego - in the summer of 1967]; he told me he was on Turner Joy when the event in the GoT was supposed to have occurred and it did not.
To distrust the Government is healthy, to whine, complain and blame all government is ridiculous and paranoid. To excuse obvious mendacity, as Bush & Co. engaged to gin up war in Iraq, was criminal; those who try so hard to rewrite history many of us viewed as a current event is foolishly absurd.
