Hussien gassed his own people, you don't think he wanted to put some gas in Washington. Bush was given bum intel, he still had the right idea. I know that I'm a minority republican in these parts, but give me a break. Maybe we should have just waited for Saddam to drop a nuclear bomb over Boston.

Oh come on Chief, I don't think anyone here has forgotten about 9/11. What's gotten people so ticked off about Bush is that how we go about dealing with terror is just as important as what we actually do. Most rational people understand real International cooperation is critical and yet Bush is taking us in the opposite direction in this respect.
I've real a lot of the Iraqi intel report and there was no evidence that justified immediate invasion of Iraq. NONE.
Our Armed Services are great at blowing things up, but unless they are backed with leadership that can fight the political battles we won't win. Terrorisim is a culture that is very complex, you can't bomb it out of someone unless you wish to eradicate half the planet...and that's just not very feesable.
