Worst US President of the last hundred years?

Yes they were and we have the report that proves it. Frankly in the end it didn't matter, there would still have been the insurgency whether Saddam had A-bombs or not.

 

Like who? I know it's the truth, so do most people. This conversation is getting reminiscent of 'FDR knew about Pearl Harbour in advance' or 'LBJ faked the Tolkin Gulf incident' conspiracy theories.

 

But they didn't, they were perfectly viable.

 

I was a great fan of embedding, when reporters sweat and suffer alongside the soldiers it gives them empathy they would otherwise lack.

 

YES, THEY WERE! How many times do we have to provide you with the evidence. Get real. You have been provided numerous links and reports yet you cling to your false narrative. At least debate honestly.

 

No he didn't, he simply passed on the intelligent assessments he received, the Iraqi exiles lied to us in order to get us to liberate the country and who can blame them?

 

Obama reduced the troop levels because Bush's surge overcame the insurgency.

 

Bush will go down at the liberator of Iraq.

 

But that's every war in history?

 

In bizarro world

 

Fact. Obama ended the war

 

Read the official Iraq survey report

 

Please name the post where you claim I made an apology

 

The facts are precious to me. Very precious.


Bush lied....no wmds

 

So what's poisoning all these troops then? What did the CIA buy back off people in Iraq?

Come on face the facts.

 

I did, amongst others.

 

Because Bush had won it?

 

Old discarded weapons that were never ever the basis of an invasion.

Every newspaper in America would have had this headline

Wmds found!!!!!

The Iraq survey group was quite clear. No wmds found

 

Bush was not president when the war ended

 

Did it say anywhere specifically that wmds were found

 

No, partly because the press is partisan but also because it was frankly irrelevant to the insurgency. But to be fair the NYT did carry the story. There were WMDs, old yes, viable, certainly, how else do you explain all the thousands recovered?

 

But he'd done the heavy lifting.

 

Show me where the NYT used the term wmds

 

Unnecessary lifting. Bush is a war criminal

 

Yep, not the thriving manufacturing system all the Iraqi exiles kept telling us about but plenty left from his 90s stockpile. Interesting the CIA report also ascertains he never gave up his WMD ambitions.
