Why do some of you liberals keep saying bush lied?

Question

Are you stupid?

"One way or the other, we are determined to deny Iraq the capacity to develop weapons of mass destruction and the missiles to deliver them. That is our bottom line."
President Clinton, Feb. 4, 1998.

"If Saddam rejects peace and we have to use force, our purpose is clear. We want to seriously diminish the threat posed by Iraq's weapons of mass destruction program."
President Clinton, Feb. 17, 1998.

"Iraq is a long way from [here], but what happens there matters a great deal here. For the risks that the leaders of a rogue state will use nuclear, chemical or biological weapons against us or our allies is the greatest security threat we face."
Madeline Albright, Feb 18, 1998.

"He will use those weapons of mass destruction again, as he has ten times since 1983."
Sandy Berger, Clinton National Security Adviser, Feb, 18, 1998

"[W]e urge you, after consulting with Congress, and consistent with the U.S. Constitution and laws, to take necessary actions (including, if appropriate, air and missile strikes on suspect Iraqi sites) to respond effectively to the threat posed by Iraq's refusal to end its weapons of mass destruction programs."
Letter to President Clinton, signed by Sens. Carl Levin, Tom Daschle, John Kerry, and others Oct. 9, 1998.

"Saddam Hussein has been engaged in the development of weapons of mass destruction technology which is a threat to countries in the region and he has made a mockery of the weapons inspection process."
Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D, CA), Dec. 16, 1998.

"Hussein has ... chosen to spend his money on building weapons of mass destruction and palaces for his cronies."
Madeline Albright, Clinton Secretary of State, Nov. 10, 1999.

I guess planksheer didn't read my entire post, lol. typical liberal, jumping to conclusions without all the facts.

_---------------------------

yeah sunshine, ignore the facts. Just go back to sleep and blindly follow your hollywood liberal heros.

leadfoot, what intelligence did Clinton use? did his administration lie with the above quotes??

reeree....

Any nation supporting terrorists which attack our country, is attacking our country.

"In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program. He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including al Qaeda members. It is clear, however, that if left unchecked, Saddam Hussein will continue to increase his capacity to wage biological and chemical warfare, and will keep trying to develop nuclear weapons."
Sen. Hillary Clinton (D, NY), Oct 10, 2002

Answer 1

i have to agree with you... bush didn't lie... he may have been mistaken about his facts (like WMDs), but he can only do so much, andi think he's doing the best he can with what he's got...

...or he was right, and the iraqis moved the WMDs before the Americans or UN could find them... (but i think we shoulda bypassed the UN and just gone in ourselves to find the stuff... because if you want something done right you gotta do it yourself)

Answer 2

You put this here as though we all deny these things were said. The thing we contend Bush lied to us about was why we went into Iraq at all. He made links to Al Queda and Saddam which never existed almost immediately after the attack on the US five years ago. He has always wanted to attack Iraq and effect a regime change (even though during the 2000 campaign he said he was not interested in regime change at all) and 9/11 was a convenient excuse. He simply had to find a way to sell it to the public. People need to stop linking Osama and Saddam. I personally would have felt much better about the whole deal had
a - WMD actually been found - to date they have not
b - Iraq had been complicent in the 9/11 attacks

That's not to say that I believe Saddam needed to stay where he was - quite the contrary. But he never directly attacked us on 9/11. So why pre-emptive strikes? Why the aggression? To prove the US has balls and we're not afraid? I'm sorry, but that's not a good enough reason to send people halfway aruond the world to die.

Answer 3

I really hope you aren't this stupid. First off, just because it's on the internet, doesn't mean it's true. You are unfairly targeting liberals. Unlike you, we aren't afraid of the unknown.

"I voted for Bush because I'd rather lose my freedom, then see two gay men together"

Read that sentence. Do you agree? Now, Bush may not be lying, but he has absolutely no brain {Kinda like you} I honestly think he saw 9/11 coming.

So why did he go to Iraq? Because of 9/11? WRONG again! All terrorist on the four planes were from Saudi Arabia, not Iraq. As for weapons of mass destruction, well where are they? We did't find any, what does that tell you about Bush? There are so many more things I wish that uneducated people like you would know. Maybe it's time to do some research!

Answer 4

possibly with the aid of fact Bush admitted there have been no WMD in Iraq. Then Bush went on television and made jokes approximately they ought to be accessible someplace. This replaced into throughout a White abode dinner and over 4 thousand troops died and Bush is making jokes. The CIA counseled Bush 3 days till now he attacked Iraq they could no longer locate any WMD. in line with danger Wikileaks isn't so properly counseled on the information.

Answer 5

Only because he did lie and has admitted it. Proof of his knowledge that Iraq did NOT have WMD's surfaced last Friday and proof that he along with his gang chose not to use the correct intelligence but go with the lies.

This was on the "free" news all day Friday and it isn't over yet. Monday he will attempt to hide again behind another child's schoolbook and try to dodge his responsibility, just like he did during Viet Nam, the WTC attack and Katrina.

This president is nothing.... except a cheerleader for lies, war and decieving the American people.... come on, Republicans, wake up!! He's screwing you at the pump, too!

Answer 6

OK let's blame Clinton for everything...let's get it done and over with...

Now what are we going to do about the problems facing this country....Clinton ain't president. Your boy George is president. Love him or hate him, that's whose in charge. And yeah the dude lies, but so does every other politician in Washington.

Blaming Clinton for anything does not bring us any closer to solving the issues before us.

I guess I'm a typical Liberal, I think someone should take responsibility and do their job and stop telling me who screwed up before they got there.

Answer 7

I am not a young man. Nor do I consider myself an old man.

I learned long ago that when someone, or an organization, is making accusations and throwing about innudendos, it is often times the case that they are doing exactly what they are accusing their advisary (ies) of. This could not fit the left any better.

From Kennedy, to Howard Dean, to John Kerry, you name the lib, and what ever they have accused the current administration of doing, is exactly what they are up to.

After all, aside from all the allegations, Bush has not been impeached for lying as Clinton was. And although W had a driving under the influnence charge that the left wanted to make so much of prior to the 2000 election, he never abandoned Mary Jo in a sinking car in Chappiquidick. He is not a philanderer as John Kerry is proven to be. And he did not lie about his service records as the Swift Boat Veterans proved Kerry did.

The left is so convinced that "Bush Lied" is the correct mantra for them because they know what it feels like to be caught in a lie.

Answer 8

Have you been sleeping for six years, or are you just intellectually challenged??! There is none so blind than he who WILL NOT SEE!! You are a piece of work!!

Perhaps the problem here is your blind patriotism to those you trust, while ignoring the obvious reality that you are bent over forward, and your president is standing right behind you with KY saying, "If you're not with me, you're with the Liberals!" That's okay, he TRIED IT with us as well, but we Liberals were FAR TOO SMART for him! It'll just take a bit more time for you Neo-Cons!! Go ahead, report me!! But you KNOW it's true, and that you're LOVING IT!!

Answer 9

Maybe he never did technically "lie". But he certainly did omit a lot of truths. He never told the whole truth. But for most people with a reasonable amount of common sense and the habit of not believing everything their told, they would equate omitting, with lying.

Answer 10

Are you kidding? Clinton's a saint! He never said any such thing. It's typical right-wing propaganda. It's a conspiracy, I tell you, a CONSPIRACY.
LOL.
Thanks for sharing.

What's really funny is that some people might actually think I was serious about that first part. Silly people. I remember Clinton's presidency all too well.

Answer 11

George W. Bush is a man WHO HAS NEVER LIED TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. The Liars are the Liberal Media and Liberal Democrats who stab President Bush is the Back and spread slander and lies about him that are not true.
