    "There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."

    its seems the right is now trying to say the Democratic party took us into the Iraq war
    Everyone is accountable for their own actions.

    Anyone who was on this board since 2006, and the earlier permutations remembers this with crystal clear clarity:

    Almost every single conservative poster not only favored the invasion of Iraq, but literally became cheerleaders for it.

    To my knowledge, every single liberal poster, lefty poster, and Democratic poster opposed the invasion of Iraq, and thought it was a dumb ass and dangerous idea.

    The Iraq War was a conservative war because the idea of the invasion came from conservatives, conservatives were relentless in promoting and selling their war, and conservatives were the only ones saying you were unpatriotic if you did not support their war.

    the congress was lied to even harder than the people were


    Bush and Cheney showed them intel that was NOT REAL

    they lied to congress by showing them DOCs that were FAKED


    Docs that showed FAKE proof that Sadam had weapons

    HE DIDNT

    it was all a lie


    THAT is why Bush did Abu Garib ( the torture prison) to keep torturing Iraqis to PRETEND their prewar intel was GOOD


    TORTURE GETS YOU ANYTHING YOU WANT TO HEAR NOT GOOD INTEL


    they needed to keep the American people lied to to keep them on board

    The PNAC was the American version of, "A Clean Break" which was Netanyahu's plan for shattering the Middle East to make it a better place for Israel.

    ??? I don't think the dead & other victims much care about that-both parties allocated lots of money towards the invasion which lead to their deaths.............

    IMHO it is the epitome of hypocrisy to vote against a totally unprovoked invasion & then allocate monies in support of it........

    Yep the thief in chief tapped into a bunch of haters and bigots and won a very close election. Trump's incompetence is front and center every day. He was not smart but is a very good conman. When he found his con worked on a national scale he was floored. He said " I could shoot someone on 5th Avenue and not lose any voters". He could not believe that he was pulling the wool over so many people simultaneously.
    I am still amazed that some people cannot see what he is. That includes people like you.
    The master of bankruptcy was predicted to be incapable of running the economy. He is proving that.

    The most vocal anti-war congressman at the time was Republican Ron Paul (who demonstrated to Congress that Bush's evidence was bullshit). The Democrats didn't offer much resistance to Bush's drive to war for Israel.

    Bill Clinton told plenty of lies, including accusing Saddam of not cooperating with inspectors when Saddam kicked out US-members of the UN inspection team for spying. They were caught red-handed spying. Bill Clinton dropped bombs on Iraq with regularity for his entire two terms.
    Ape lives matter. Stop putting them in zoos. Boycott businesses that don't hire apes.

    Then answered all the Jews, and said, Jesus' blood be on us, and on our children. So be it.
    Jews want to turn America into an atheistic, amoral, socialist farmyard.

    How can a conservative be for an expensive and unjust war of aggression? That contradicts the very definition of "conservative". Zionists were for the war. Yes, many Zionists, playing the the role of judas goats, present themselves as conservatives. Just like you, spawn of Satan, present yourself as a human.
