I thought that you said you could give facts. All you given is unfounded anti-American rightwing propaganda.
No wonder the Republican party is all screwed up. They cannot tell the difference between reality and propaganda spouted by Fox.

War for Oil: True
Go read Alan Greenspan's theory on attacking Iraq. He told the Bush administration that if Saddam took over control of the oil line it would have a disasterous effect on the economy.
You really think Bush cared about freeing "tent living" Iraqi citizens?
We can't get to the oil because the refineries are unaccessable.
911 an inside job: Quite possibly
Bush's "intelligence" might have been aware of a possible terrorist attack and allowed it to happen. What better way to re-build the United States military then by having a national disaster occur on Amerian soil?
Bush lied about WMD: True
He didn't allow the weapon's inspectors enough time to finish their job. They told him they still hadn't found any weapons, but he insisted they were there. Have we found any to this day? I would think that if we could find Saddam in a hole, we could find anything if it was truly there.
Don't be so gullable. Our country's government is not so squeaky clean.

The UN endorsed Oil for food program. Ie. We will send relief for the war we instigated if you give us oil.
Second, read a paper. There is a strong anti-American sentiment in many nations. Heck even Canada has disassociated itself from the USA. This point is also supported by the lack of support the USA received for the war in Iraq.
World peace has never occurred, nor have I heard anybody claim that it has. However there was 2 minor conflicts under Clinton and 2 major wars under bush.
911 inside job. That is a crazy conspiracy, just as the Clinton body count. However a little transparency regarding the investigation would be appreciated.
Bush was misinformed regarding WMD, and started a war based upon faulty intelligence. He did not lie, however he failed to fully investigate his sources prior to declaring war.
And finally any country that has signed onto the variable UN peace accords (such as the USA has) has to have the approval of the UN to engage in war. This was lacking in the war in Iraq. This is treaty violation which is illegal under international law.

Not that you'd EVER change your mind about what you think you know, here are some links to address your FIRST contention, that "War for Oil" is in fact NOT why we are in Iraq.
http://www.readcsp.com/csp/content/blood_oil_and_the_iraqi_parliament/
http://www.globalpolicy.org/security/oil/irqindx.htm
And the REAL reason we invaded and think the French are surrender-monkeys:
http://www.google.com/notebook/public/08740973854407940442/BDSrpIgoQ6Iac4uYh
And NO oil will flow from Iraq until Big Oil has those contracts sewn up tight.
Whoever said anything about World Peace Under Clinton"? Just the rightwing, DOMESTIC militias attacking Oklahoma City and other places domestically kept the US from being even a COUNTRY at peace.
No reputable person ever said "9/11 was an inside job". That's YOUR statement and you make it all the time, like you know something about it the rest of us don't. But I have said Bush was negligent in his duties the first 9 months of his Presidency. I say this because it is a fact.
Once again, there are THREE KINDS OF WMDs. Chemical, Biological and Nuclear.
We ALWAYS knew Hussein had chem and bio weapons, because Reagan gave him the technology, so he could defend Iraq from the Ayotollah Khomeini in Iran.
What Bush lied about was Hussein having NUCLEAR weapons in Iraq. That was based on ONE discredited report of an unreliable informant to British Intel, concerning Hussein's alleged efforts to buy "yellow cake" in Nigeria.. Brits tried and failed to corroborate the report, so they passed it on to the US, with a warning about its unreliablility. The FBI and CIA BOTH told the Bush cabinet the intel was worthless, and removed it from the intel stream. Bush and Cheney SEIZED on it as the justification to go into Iraq. They evenwent so far as to form an entirely independent intelligence servie, whose only purpose was to get this "yellowcake" report reintroduced into the Fed's intel stream. And of course, the proof, as they say, is in the pudding. Where are the nukes? Where are the radiation detectors and exposure badges? We have satellites in orbit right now which can pick up the radiation coming off an xray machine in the basement of a hospital, but we supposedly cannot trace uranium?
And despite Hussein's "defiance" of 17 UN Resolutions, the UN NEVER authorized the US to invade Iraq. All we had to do was WAIT. Then we don't get blamed for going it alone, especially if it turns out badly, as EVERY one in the free world warned you it would. And of course Congress authorized the President to go to war, they were HIS REPUBLICAN CONGRESS. They had the majority and rubberstamped Bush's obscenities in the Middle East, in the name of fighting terrorism, while NOT capturing terrorists such as bin Laden. Anyone who said ANYTHING about NOT INVADING was immediately branded a traitor and a coward and somehow in cahoots with world wide terrorism.
Everyday, somewhere in the world, there are demonstrations about the USs imperialistic moves. There are protest marches, there are blogs talking about how much America resembles Nazi Germany, all you have to do is watch something other than Fox Noise and listen to ANYTHING besides Cyst Limbaugh.

People make more money if the Iraqi oil stays in the ground.. Plus Cheney and company PROMISED us that the war would be payed for by Iraqi oil.
France is still very anti-Bush and the world is very anti-our policy in Iraq. Iraq is killing our foreign relations... the "coalition of the willing" is dwindling even still. Some nations were only in it for show anyway.. with a grand total of 1 troops there just so they could have their name in the coalition. Actually.. I think Britain is the second largest contributor with a couple thousand only... and they are moving them home even. That's not even getting into the Muslim part of the world......
The world liked us under Clinton, we were able to make some progress with regimes that had refused to talk to us ever before and people were willing to back us up if we needed help. World peace isn't attainable at this point in human existence... but we were on a track to a more peaceful world under Clinton.
Never said 9/11 was an inside job.
Bush and Co. were responsible for presenting the data... not Clinton.

War for oil- It does not mean we get oil cheaper, it means we control the price. Example? Exxon's huge profits
The world hates us- The world loved us after 9/11. Why there were even pro American marches in Iran! But since we invaded Iraq for no good reason, detain people without warrants, rendition, etc. the world hates what the Bush administration has done.
World Peace under Clinton- No, but no Americans died in Bosnia, none, zero.
9/11 an inside job- that is an extremist view, not Liberal.
Bush lied about WMDs- There were none and Bush knew it. In fact Cheney went after Valerie Plame when her husband proved that was true. How much more proof do you need?
You spout Neo-Con Kool-aid but have no facts to back up your position. Typical!

War for Oil: Without secure pipelines, we cannot retrieve the oil. It was well known that Iraq's oil wealth was originally going to be used to pay for the war. I don't believe oil is the only reason, but it is one of the reasons America went over there.
The world hates us? No. Just the middle east and Russia.
Peace under Clinton? Statistically that is correct. There were less military deaths under Clinton by far. There were a few hotspot incidents such as Bosnia and Somolia, but no prolonged war - aside from maintaining a no-fly zone in Iraq.
9/11 - Maybe 2% of Liberals believe this.
Bush lied about WMD? Not exactly. He pushed the CIA to provide evidence that Hussien had WMDs and was pursuing a nuclear program. Then the Bush administration cherrypicked what they viewed as strong evidence and removed any evidence to the contrary. Then this was presented to Congress, who, gave Bush authorization to use force to overthrow Hussien if sanctions did not work.
I don't know how and when authorization to overthrow Hussien became authorization to occupy a country indefinitely. Maybe you can fill me in on that.

You're right this is not a war for oil....only. This is also a war for "security", weapon,...(Halliburton, unlocal, enron, blackwater, boeing, grumman,...)
Just because Sarkozy is president of France, it doesn't mean Dubya's image is getting worse.
Mr Lewinsky invaded countries, too.
9/11 was used as an excuse for war-business. Where's Osama?
Wait, you didn't asked moderates. I forgot that.
