Do you support investigating the Bush adminstration's handling of the Iraq war?

Question

DId you support any of the investigations into the CLinton adminstration?

investigations are for looking into something. They are not judge jury and executioner. So investigations would be just that. Looking into it...why would anyone be against it? ESPECIALLY if there was no wrong doing...

Answer 1

Congressional oversight is the job of congress
Every War in American history has had a comitte on the conduct of the war
Harry Truman became famous because of his being the head of the investigating com inWW2
And frankly Id like to know
HOW DID HALIBURTON GET A 5 YEAR NO BID CONTRACT IN IRAQ

Answer 2

Yes, and yes.

Generally, I can't see a reason not to ask questions and get answers.

Interestingly enough, the congressional (Senate, I believe) investigation into pre-war statements hit a snag when the Republican leadership suggested that statements be evaluated blindly - in other words, the statement and the date it was made would be known, but the person making the statement would not be revealed to the people assigned to evaluate its accuracy. That way, you'd get an objective evaluation of the statements of both Democrat and Republican officials without any spin from either side.

I assume that will not happen now, as the Democrats opposed that and they now control the Congress.

Again, more facts are good. Investigate away. But do it consistent with the fact that our soldiers are facing an enemy that watches us for any signs that we are "giving up."

Answer 3

Clinton was investigated. Remember Ken Starr? The most important thing is to find some national consensus on dealing with a spiraling out of control war. Democrats and Republicans both have to speak up with realistic plans; Bush has to listen and stop chanting, "Stay the course." or whatever slogan he's adopted lately.

Answer 4

1. Yes I supporting, and still support the investigation into the Bush Administration's debacle in Iraq.

2. As far as I know, all Clinton did that was worthy of investigation was the Monica Luinsci scandal, and what is there to investigate about that?

Answer 5

I agree with the original poster. We'll investigate where Clinton's **** was on any given day just because some old chick was p'd off cuz she wasn't gettin any, but hell if we'll investigate why the current administration has our entire military deployed.

If only ppl would realize a lot of these "liberal vs. conservative" issues would dwindle if we'd just start seeing other parties in this democracy...Americans should be outraged at themselves for falling into the "2-party democracy".

Answer 6

YES because if they gave open and unbiased media coverage the critics will be forced to admit there WERE and possibly still ARE WMDs in Iraq. I doubt efforts into the investigation of the Clinton Administration will do any good without foreign sources like captured materials in Iraq because of the clean out done after the democrats knew they would not stay in the White House, and because the full conspiracy of the French, Russians and members of the UN to aid Iraq in violation of UN treaties will never be known. When you have people like Sandy Berger smuggling documents out in their pants, what kind of paper trail would you expect to find?

Answer 7

Ya understand what scares me???? The leaders of the international in the present day--THEY SCARE THE HELL OUT OF ME!!! you have have been given Iraq, the place we ought to constantly no longer be, IRAN the place we would be, Turkey the place we've been on and stale for years, China and Russia look heating up lower back... throughout GREED or faith or delight or regardless of... and we've Mr. Bush right here who looks greater then waiting to push THAT LITTLE BUTTON that ought to end the international........No physique trusts NO physique from now on.... it particularly is all some great race to make certain who can wipe out the different the quickest and anyone will ultimately PAY the cost..... no person ought to be construction Nuclear weapons, no person ought to additionally be questioning of a thank you to harm or injury the governments of alternative worldwide places or their human beings (be it Iraq, Iran OR usa), We make great errors NOW and there won't be a the following day for our youngsters and our grandchildren--or any babies left in any respect. Do you extremely need OUR contemporary residing generations to be the final ONES in the international?????? it is not proper while you're Christian, Muslim, Jewish, Hindi, Buddist, White, Black, Yellow, purple, Why is each and every person so hell bent on DESTROYING this earth and one yet another??? One fool pushes that "button" and we are able to kiss our lives stable bye... conflict is going to deliver us to that element and not the rest. For all you christians who SAY you have self assurance in God, properly, if our leaders placed us into WW3 and finally end up blowing us ALL UP, what's going to God do THEN with this planet???? He ought to BLOW IT UP as a punishment for a manner we people (each and every of the EARTH'S people) have destroyed IT and alongside with IT, one yet another!!!!!!

Answer 8

I do support the investigation of the Bush Admn. Its only obvious that we have really F uped Iraq. Everyone in his original Admn has resigned to keep their asses in the clear. Something clearly went wrong from the very beginnings of this war, even before it started. some one needs to be held accountable. Can you say Vietnam 2?

Answer 9

Clinton was impeached for perjury, not for having an affair!!! Hullo???

Let's investigate the Bush Administration for mishandling the war and lets investigate Congress (like Kerry and Clinton) who voted for it before they voted against it, or whatever it was.

If Congress would stay out of it and support the troops and give them what they need to finish the job. Both Iraq and America would be a better place.

Answer 10

No, why should it be investigated. Almost every single member of congress democrat and republican voted for war. If we investigate Bush, shouldn't they all be held in the same light?
