Will you ever forget Bush's words of March 17, 2003?

Question

"Intelligence gathered by this and other governments leaves no doubt that the Iraq regime continues to possess and conceal some of the most lethal weapons ever devised. This regime has already used weapons of mass destruction against Iraq's neighbors and against Iraq's people.

The regime has a history of reckless aggression in the Middle East. It has a deep hatred of America and our friends. And it has aided, trained and harbored terrorists, including operatives of al Qaeda.

The danger is clear: using chemical, biological or, one day, nuclear weapons, obtained with the help of Iraq, the terrorists could fulfill their stated ambitions and kill thousands or hundreds of thousands of innocent people in our country, or any other."

yupchagee - an English lesson. "No doubt" means there is NO CHANCE you can be wrong. If you ARE wrong, then there was doubt or there should have been.

Bunz - 23 liberal Senators voted against the war, and most House democrats voted against the war. Don't keep lying four years later.

Roger N - are you so naive to link the President never lies?

badjannsen, you proposed response to this threat is to lie about WMD?

Aslan - Robert Byrd spoke out, and so did some others. But you are right, most Democrats cowardly went along. And many still do.

Answer 1

How can we forget when we see the results of his decision to invade every night on the news? 3000+ dead, 25000+ wounded, billions of dollars lost and wasted. Saddam had no WMDs and if he had, he had no way to deliver them to the USA. Saddam had less ties to Bin Ladin and 9/11 than the Bush Family does.

Bush's words should be used in his impeachment since the Downing Street Memo proved that he knew they were a lie and that the Bush Admin was fixing the facts around his desire to invade Iraq to control their oil and OPEC seat, steal their treasure and give lucrative no-bid contracts to his cronies and increase military spending so his Dad's Carlyle Group would make billions. Bush is an evil, corrupt, money-grubbing chimp who should be tried and executed for corruption, treason, obstruction of justice, lying to the American people and many other crimes.

Answer 2

Not that it matters but I doubt anybody (including you) actually remembered those words but instead spent some time looking them up.

Do you remember these words:

The community of nations may see more and more of the very kind of threat Iraq poses now: a rogue state with weapons of mass destruction, ready to use them or provide them to terrorists. If we fail to respond today, Saddam and all those who would follow in his footsteps will be emboldened tomorrow. - Bill Clinton

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. - Bill Clinton

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. - Bill Clinton

Why did Bill lie to the American people?

Answer 3

Well, if nothing else, he sells a good war.
I for one am equally angry at the democrats who allowed this country to be led into insanity. Not one single voice of reason was raised prior to invading Iraq. The popular winds of the times was war. The Democrats just went along, knowing their next election would be in trouble if they opposed a then popular president in a popular war.
Both parties need to hang their heads in shame.

Answer 4

As good a reason to go to war with Iraq as any! Don't forget that nearly all the liberals in congress stood by those reasons, and believed in going to war with Iraq for those very reasons!

Answer 5

he's a liar..and not fit to be president...i don't care if his intelligence was wrong..it was the government's responsibility(that includes the president) to make sure the information was correct before you go and over throw a whole nation's government at the cost of thousands of American lives as well as the tens of thousand innocent lives that have been taken.

Answer 6

The intel report did leave NO DOUBT. Either every intel service in the world was wrong ot Saddam moved the weapons.

Answer 7

Yea.. Seems kinda misleading huh?

Or.. If you are a conservative..

Bush is never wrong so it must be that the Iraqis are hiding the WMDs underground..

Riiiiiiiiiiiight

Answer 8

They're in public record, so probably not. I fail to see the point. Is there supposed to be a lie or error here?

Answer 9

One of the worst lies ever told.

Answer 10

Yeah, so...
Are you naive enough to think that they haven't gotten stuff buried in that wasteland?
Once they figure out a fool proof way to deliver it, we'll see it.
