Another hysterical, ill-thought post from you? Enough already.
I'm one liberal who really doesn't think the Bush WH lied about WMD in Iraq. I think they believed that WMD were there. They were just wrong about the WMD. The waged a war of aggression and choice in good faith. The occupation was a total clusterf___.
Obama was wrong to say people should be able to keep their cheap-o "insurance" policies, with their lame "benefits". Obama has made mistakes, and that was one of them.
But his mistakes haven't cost thousands of American soldiers' lives, like the Bushtarded One's mistakes did. Neocons are just now finishing licking their fingers of our boys' blood. And they thirst for more with a new war on Iran.
Liberals' complaints are about the GOP's warmongering, and conservatives' complaints are about liberals getting the poor getting health insurance.
No wonder Mitt Romney lost.
I take it you had no problem with keeping Saddam in power then? Of course you obviously don't know anything about the following do you?
More importantly NONE of these affected you right so you really don't care about these realities do you?
You would like to see this ecological disaster continue right .. because YOU loved Saddam.. Right??

It turns out Saddam Hussein did possess a weapon of mass destruction and he used it in a slaughter that few have heard of until now: after the Gulf War in 1991, the dictator spent untold millions on this weapon, designed to exterminate an ancient civilization called the "Ma'dan," also known as the "Marsh Arabs."
In a five-year project 90 percent of the marshes were drained - an area of more than 3,000 square miles.
"... the marsh dwellers were important elements in the uprising against Saddam HusseinÂ’s regime. To end the rebellion, the regime implemented an intensive system of drainage and water diversion structures that desiccated over 90% of the marshes. The reed beds were also burned and poison introduced to the waters.
It is estimated that more than 500,000 were displaced, 95,000 of them to Iran, 300,000 internally displaced, and the remainder to other countries. By January 2003, the majority of the marshes were wastelands.
"As an engineer, I'm telling you, drying of the marshes is definitely not an easy task. It's a monumental engineering project," Alwash explained. "He put every piece of equipment available in Iraq under his control at the services of the projects needed to dry the marshes."
"Saddam was using water as a weapon?" Pelley asked.
"You know, the world was looking for weapons of mass destruction. And the evidence was right under its nose," Alwash.

And of course YOU have no problem with continuing Saddam's starvation program right that if still in placed nearly 2.6 million kids would starve to death??
AND don't be an idiot and BLAME the economic sanctions! SADDAM had the power to feed by abiding by UN sanctions!
The sanctions against Iraq were a near-total financial and trade embargo imposed by the United Nations Security Council on the nation of Iraq.
They began August 6, 1990, four days after Iraq's invasion of Kuwait, stayed largely in force until May 2003 (after Saddam Hussein's being forced from power),...
Estimates of excess deaths of children during the sanctions range from 100,000 to over 500,000.
Sanctions against Iraq - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is an average of almost 40,000 children a year which if the Liberation had not happened, as of today Saddam's refusal to obey the sanctions
would have starved nearly 2.6 million children !
If Iraq hadn't been liberated in less then 6 weeks, 28 million would still be captive and 2.6 million kids starved!
Finally you of all people want to see 28 million people stay in a stone age economy where in 2003 under Saddam the per capita GDP was $518.
Per CIA world book Iraq's per capita GDP is $4,200 A total increase of over 718% in 10 years or 71% a year.
The 10th fastest GDP rate in the world.
