I remember being on the wagon throwing grain to the hawks.

Talk about making me think it over, I never want to have something like that on my conscience again.

I remember marching with ten thousand people against the war. On the local TV news all they showed were the 200 pro war demonstrators. Darn liberal media…

If we didn’t invade for the oil, why did we?

To get a stable base in the Mideast from which we could get oil. The Neo-cons were very clear about that. Too bad George W. didn’t listen to his dad, who had correctly turned down that idiotic plan during HIS administration (see George H.W.‘s memoirs, where he makes it pretty clear his own son screwed this up without saying so outright). Instead, he listened to his dad’s advisors.
See how well it worked? We now have a stable base in the Mideast, an assured flow of oil, and the invasion paid for itself…not.

Simple, the world removed saddam because he refused to live up to UN RESOLUTION 1441. How clueless are lie-berals? This comic and lib comments prove they can’t read much less comprehend world events.

The rational isn’t unknown, it was to make military contractors a crap ton of money.

Except “the world” didn’t remove Saddam. You don’t remember the US seeking out partners for the so called Collation of the Willing?

The same old stupid lies over and over again. The Cons can’t seem to understand that no uranium enrichment program was found because Saddam shut it down. Ditto for the poison gas munitions – they were destroyed.

How many UN resolutions has Israel ignored? Oh, wait, they only count when we approve of them, because America Runs The World.

Still whining about a war the USA won, and which liberals were never drafted to fight. How bout focusing on the 4+ year failure in the White House?
