Here's the scoop for the right wingers: In 1962 American spy planes took actual photographs of armed nuclear missiles stationed 90 miles from the coast of the great state of Florida. Guess where they were aimed. Without the loss of a single life, the island hell with a ruthless dictator and the support of a superpower, with nuclear weapons and missiles on a par with us; backed down. Compare that leadership to 2003. A president invades a third world dictatorship thousands of miles away, thinking that they have WMD. With much more advanced technology this son of a president is mistaken. He is duped. Even if there were WMD, so what? Where is the capability to deliver them thousands of miles? When did we become such fearful cowards that we have to invade a country based on such sloppy intelligence?The threat in Iraq, was minuscule compared to threats we've defeated in the past without a bullet being fired. What ever happened to having balls enough to not let fear rule your actions? But, the right wingers are happy because they got everything they voted for: 2500 lost soldiers, thousands of amputees, 300 Billion plus deficits, global warming, inept Federal Agencies like FEMA, a president on vacation while an American city is destroyed, on and on and on. They have it all - Congress, The Supreme Court and the President. Fellow liberals let them have their fun, sleep with a clear conscious for we are not to blame!
