Answer 1

They remember fine. Their strategy was to continually unfairly bash this administration and repeatedly lie until many people believed them. "Bush Lied and People Died?" When did he lie?
EVERYONE including Kerry, Gore, Clinton, Clinton and several forgien intelligence sources believed there were WMDs. In order for Bush to have lied about that he would have had to have known
something none of these people knew. Plus the WMD threat was just one justification for the war. I think the public has forgotten that there is a group of people who want us all dead. They are more than willing to die themselves to carry out their plans against us. We've accomplished a huge amount. Two hostile governments overthrown. Large numbers of high ranking terrorists captured or killed. Several plots thwarted. These people don't care who's in power. Bush will be remembered as a great president. Even if the acknowledgement does not come for decades, it will come.

Answer 2

No one is arguing the fact that the Saddam's Iraq regime needed taken down. It's the exit strategy that has everyone concerned. It seems the Bush administration went into Iraq without a plan to win the peace. That was a huge blunder.
Bush's thinking that he could install a democracy in Iraq was the major flaw in his policy. After all, it is democracy that the Islamic terrorists are fighting. People in that region believe religion should rule society, not elected officials.

Answer 3

Government is a necessary evil and should be watched closely~ Thomas jefferson paraphrased. Both parties suffer from corruption of that there is litle doubt this election was a message to the overtly corrupt and the party which seeks total control, the amessage was simple we are tired of your bs , lies and wars for oil! Did you notice how many vets were elected?Perhaps the republican leadership should check out:

Answer 4

I believe we do remember - we also learn from mistakes, try to be honest and take accountability for making those mistakes and try another way when we have made a mistake.

The one thing I remember every day is that I am terrified by what our current (cough cough) leader will do next. Who he will piss off next. What tax break will he sign in for his cronies. What bills will he overturn for big business.

Ohhhhhhhhh - did he do those things? See I remember - I try not to focus my complete and total awareness to September 11 and what followed.

Answer 5

Probably because the WMD were never there..Saddam is going to be hanged..mission accomplished. No more reason for Americans to die and pay for Iraq anymore.

Why do Republicans always pull out these moments from the past as a good reason for the mistake they are making now? Why can't GOPs just aqccept reality and move on?

Answer 6

WWI Europe, Korea, Vietnam, and the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan...why didnt the Republicans remember?

Answer 7

O, I suspect they remember and so did the voters, why else would George have won the first time.
The mistake we all made was electing a total incompetent.

Answer 8

if torturing people and doing away with habeas corpus and lieing about WMD is the republican way then im happy to be a dem

Answer 9

Because they're politicians, and not to be trusted. On another note, I remember a US president who said "I don't think our troops ought to be used for what's called nation-building. . . . I think what we need to do is convince people who live in the lands they live in to build the nations. Maybe I'm missing something here. I mean, we're going to have a kind of nation-building corps from America? Absolutely not." Could you tell me who said that? We're certainly involved in nation-building in Iraq now.

Answer 10

It was in their interest to pretend that they disagreed with this war in order to get elected, and it worked. Dems have the house and the senate. History won't remember that they lied to get there.
