Good point.Very true. I don't ever remember people slobbering all over GWB.
Obama's still got 2 more years - it ain't over yet.
no one admitting Jizzing in their pants like main Obama slurper Chris Matthews did
I think that, IF it could proven beyond a doubt that Bush actually lied about the wars (which there is no SOLID evidence of that), then THAT might make him actually worse than Obama.
"The evidence indicates that Iraq is reconstituting its nuclear weapons program ... Iraq has attempted to purchase high-strength aluminum tubes and other equipment needed for gas centrifuges, which are used to enrich uranium for nuclear weapons." -- President Bush, Oct. 7, 2002, in Cincinnati.
"The British government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa." -- President Bush, Jan.28, 2003, in the State of the Union address.
"We've learned that Iraq has trained al-Qaeda members in bomb-making and poisons and deadly gases ... Alliance with terrorists could allow the Iraqi regime to attack America without leaving any fingerprints."
"We believe [Saddam] has, in fact, reconstituted nuclear weapons." -- Vice President Cheney on March 16, 2003 on "Meet the Press."
"We have also discovered through intelligence that Iraq has a growing fleet of manned and unmanned aerial vehicles that could be used to disperse chemical or biological weapons across broad areas. We are concerned that Iraq is exploring ways of using these UAVs [unmanned aerial vehicles] for missions targeting the United States." -- President Bush, Oct. 7.
"We have seen intelligence over many months that they have chemical and biological weapons, and that they have dispersed them and that they're weaponized and that, in one case at least, the command and control arrangements have been established." -- President Bush, Feb. 8, 2003, in a national radio address.
"We know where [Iraq's WMD] are. They're in the area around Tikrit and Baghdad and east, west, south, and north somewhat." -- Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, March 30, 2003, in statements to the press.
What kind of lies are you looking for?
There was no factual basis for any of these statements.
That isn't the media though. I should have been clear and said the media. They just LOVED Obama and hated Bush. There is no denying that little factoid.
This does not prove they were lies either.
So what were they? Let me know where the goal posts are.
We're going to come around to the Obama goal posts when we're done.
What was the false narrative, specifically?
Well they aren't lies unless you can prove that Saddam Hussein never had or never had any intentions on having chemical weapons.
So saying there is there is intelligence indicating something, when none actually exist, is not a lie?
By the way, do you believe Obama lied about Benghazi?
Careful.
Was George W Bush a good president?
He was mediocre.
Body armor is completely new to me. We didn't complain in Vietnam because we didn't have body armor. All we had were stinking flak jackets and if you were lucky they might stop a grenade fragment. Otherwise they slowed you down and you made grunting sounds when humping in the bush. Grunts grunted back then.
Some of us wonder how todays body armor would work out in Vietnam when it's 120 degrees with 80% humidity ?
The problem is, nobody has been able to figure out how to defeat IED's.
I already stated they had plenty of time to get rid of any incriminating evidence. Just because we didn't FIND it, doesn't mean it never existed.
I think Obama is a novice and ****ed up big time.
And WHY would I have to be careful?
Just because a person doesn't like Obama does not make her a republican. :lol:
I knew better that it had nothing to do with WMD, oil or Al Qaeda but Sadam was training and supporting other terrorist.
Iraq sheltered the Abu Nidal Organization, an international terrorist organization that has carried out terrorist attacks in twenty countries, killing or injuring almost 900 people. Targets have included the United States and several other Western nations. Each of these groups have offices in Baghdad and receive training, logistical assistance, and financial aid from the government of Iraq.
In April 2002, Saddam Hussein increased from $10,000 to $25,000 the money offered to families of Palestinian suicide/homicide bombers.
He was very effective in foreign policy.
We had a chance to properly supply the troops. We didnt. "Great wartime president" :roll:
Lets see how I can say this ? :thinking
There hasn't been a G.W. Bush White House website since Januaray 20th, 2009.
The economic collapse was culmination of the failed bush policies. Giving tax cuts to the rich, bushcare, no child left behind, giving subprime loans to minimum wage workers, lack of regulation, two failed wars, and the list goes on.Undeniably the worst president in american history. Not even close.
No,and Millions of easily manipulated and entertained Americans bought into their false narratives.Democrats spent 8 years beating up on Bush
Bush didn't tell any more untruths about Iraq than his predecessor, his predecessor's administration, and high ranking Democrats did.
