Well Obama for one was against the ill-gotten Iraq war, now we can recall what Biden said after the war started. We can recall how he was ignored by Bush and Cheney ...because you know they have so much war experience to draw from. :roll:
In 2006, Biden was a senator from Delaware gearing up for a presidential campaign when he proposed that Iraq be divided into three semi-independent regions for Shiites, Sunnis and Kurds. Follow his plan, he said, and U.S. troops could be out by early 2008. Ignore it, he warned, and Iraq would devolve into sectarian conflict that could destabilize the whole region.
The Bush administration chose to ignore Biden. Now, eight years later, the vice president's doom-and-gloom prediction seems more than a little prescient.

2/3 of America, and the rest of the world have signed off on the Iraq war as a farce, and have condemned Bush, Cheney and Blair as war criminals.
Even Bush and Cheney agrees, often when confronted listen to their comments, listen and understand that what they give are really excuses why they got it wrong. When you hear the phrase ..."we just had 911"....or ..."no one at the time knew..." that is how you recognize that all they have are excuses!
