That doesn't make him not guilty. For all your talk of blaming 9/11 on the terrorists you forget the little detail the 9/11 had about Saddam Hussein's regime bearing no relation to Al-Qaida? Did you forget that?

You want to blame the insurgents? Fine, they pulled the trigger. But they wouldn't be attacking our troops if we weren't in their country.

President Bush knew the consequences for going to war in Iraq. He knew there would be a huge insurgency, as is characteristic of an occupied country full of Islamic radicals. To think that he could not have forseen this is naive. Of course there would be an insurgency.

But he didn't bother with a plan to quell any insurgency, did he? No. The plan was all dandy. We roll into Bagdad, raid a few palaces, find the WMDs we were looking for. What did Bush care at the time about what would happen after the U.S. invaded? That was way off, and if we could have found WMDs nobody would have cared that we had left Iraq in ruins.

But it didn't turn out that way. There were no WMDs. (Please, these arguments of "We just haven't found them yet" are getting old.) And so, because of that, international opinion went down the toilet, billions of dollars were wasted, an insurgency was validated and started, and now 1000+ soldiers are dead.

You might say that Iraq was a disaster. How could Bush have not forseen this? He probably did, but was too obsessed to actually draw up a real plan.

I think that actually follows the pattern of many right-wingers. John Kerry can use his stupid new catchphrase to describe it, though I do think it does make a plenty of sense.

"All hat, no cattle."
