Paul, John Kerry says he was misled, and that's it? He says it, so it's true?
I can find kooks who say Obama is a Muslim. Does that make it true?
I can find kooks who say 09/11 was an inside job. Does that make it true?
PaulS, if Bush willfully misled the Senate into voting for the war, I have one simple question for you. Why wasn't Bush impeached when the Democrats took control of Congress in 2006?
Here's another...if Bush "wanted" to go to war, why did he give Saddam Hussein so many chances to avoid war? If Hussein had agreed to the terms of the UN resolution, the war would not have happened. The Bush administration gave Hussein several chances to comply. If Bush "wanted" to go to war, why give Hussein so many chances to avoid war?
Funny. One minute Bush is a dumb hick, right off the set of 'Hee Haw'. The next minute, he's a real-life Jack Bauer who manufactures evidence to fool almost the entire Senate, and he does it in such a way, that they cannot touch him for it. That's one sharp cookie.
Even Spence said, in this thread, that there is no evidence that Bush intentionally misled anyone. That's a pretty good indicator.
Paul, the Senate was not misled. They looked at the evidence, and made the wrong conclusion. That their conclusion was wrong, does not mean it was unethical. If Hussein repeatedly kicks out weapons inspectors, it's not lunacy to conclude that he's hiding something. It's that simple.
Did George Bush mislead Bill Clinton, who said several times that he believed Hussein had WMDs?
