What did she say?

Answer 1

I think she was saying Saddam needed to be taken out.

Answer 2

really fail to see your point, that the Democrats were as wrong as the republicans and the intelligence community on Iraq's WMD's? Ss What? Also there was no official declaration of war and I doubt many thought Bushco was as stupid as they've turned out to be. The better point would be to question the alternatives to a massive expensive war that has no clear strategy. We should be asking why ALL options weren't exhausted prior to the commitment of blood and treasure on this ill fated adventure, but hey let's not try critical thinking here, why would we want to do that when simple slogans and finger pointing go so much further in advancing our national interests, now if you want to have a discussion on what we could have done as an alternative to invasion I'm game for that and my answers might suprise you & provide illumination on what far better options we had prior to the war.

Answer 3

So what??? A lot of repubs were saying the same thing and doing nothing. We needed to stay out of a country who did not have the financial means to make water pure, let alone make an a bomb.

Answer 4

When SOMEONE was in the white house last time.. guess what law they passed.
