Indeed. She and many others who are now not proud of their votes. Are you saying that giant MISTAKE was their fault, or anyone else’s not named George W. Bush?
Seemed to me that he “accidentally” didn’t hear her “Knowing what we know now” qualification, so he can, at some point, slough it off as a little misunderstanding – without actually answering the question about what he would have done if he’d known what we know now.
Bush lied, yes. The CIA briefing he claimed as proof of his contentions was declassified not too long ago, and it does no such thing. Shame on the Democrats for believing the President and his secret information, but greater shame to the liar who had plans to invade Iraq before he was even placed in the office.

The only surprise is that Jeb admitted that he would invade all over again, even knowing the aftermath. Out loud. In public.
There is NO surprise that he would invade Iraq all over. He has zero foreign policy experience. And evidently no knowledge.
And he STILL has no clue that the ‘intelligence’ was manufactured, manipulated, cherry picked, and fabricated.
It’s good to remember that his foreign policy advisors are the exact same advisors that were there for W. Not one of them has admitted they were wrong about anything.
Not that ‘we would be treated as liberators’.Not that ‘the war would be over in six weeks, six months tops’.Not that ‘there was no evidence of trouble between Sunnis and Shiites’.Not ‘Mission Accomplished’.Not the Billion Dollars in U.S. Currency that was handed out and disappeared.Not that there was zero planning about what to do after the war.Not that the war ‘would pay for itself’.
And, of course, Jeb would award the $8 Billion no bid contract to Halliburton.
Too bad for Jeb, even some Fox “news” viewers comprehend what a collossal blunder the invasion of Iraq was.

How ‘bout a deal. We won’t run a Clinton if you won’t run a Bush.

Oh, and let’s see how long before Jeb declares:
‘It wasn’t torture. And anyway, I’d do it again in a minute.’
