My bad; it was damned funny. A case of mistaken identity in my haste.
Comments like these are too stupid for words.

Try to find some. When did Bush consult with Congress on the decision to invade Iraq?
Bush was the "decider." He doesn't even try to make the excuses that you apologists continually try to make. I'll at least give him that - he owns the decision, and holds himself accountable.
Why you guys still try to make it seem like Congress forced his hand or something is beyond me. It's one of the saddest things (and a LONG way from the "Dems are on the wrong side of history" stuff you were spewing when Saddam's statue fell).
He is his own special brand of stupid, he and dud must hang out a lot.

For saying that Bush made the decision to invade Iraq?
Yeah - that's pretty controversial. Pretty ill-informed. Everyone knows he was just an innocent bystander in his Presidency...no power whatsoever to keep troops from crossing that border into Iraq....
His Idea ok'd by congress right?

His idea to invade in March of 2003?
No - he didn't consult with Congress on that. He asked for the authority to use force if necessary, which they gave him, but he didn't consult with them on specifics or on the decision itself.
Sorry about that. Maybe you should take a look at the history before discussing this?
It was called the Joint Resolution you clueless dumbass. It was passed in the House 297 to 133 with 82 Democrats voting with the majority and in the Senate 77 to 23 with 29 Democrats voting with the majority.

Wrong again moron; it was decided by a coalition of 36 other nations. It was a JOINT authorization and one that is permitted within all UN resolutions.
But alas, I am arguing with a brain dead idiot stuck on a special brand of stupid.

Who is claiming anyone forced his hand you twit; they were all in just as the former President Clinton, Al Gore, Nancy Pelosi and John Kerry.
You must live in a fucking cave to now know this.
The saddest things is that there are so many leftist retards like you running around spamming forums with your moronic stupidity.
Of course in the loony tune world you infest, UN Resolutions should never be enforced, the Iraqi people were better off under Saddam, Saddam had not invaded two neighboring Islamic nations and the dumbest and most naïve view that despots, tyrants, dictators and terrorists can be “reasoned” with and talked to.
You’re a naïve uniformed hyper partisan moron of epic proportions.
The difference between Bush and a dunce like Obummer or Clinton is that he actually did what he said he was going to do.
"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."
--President Bill Clinton, Feb. 4, 1998
"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."
--President Bill Clinton, Feb. 17, 1998
"Iraq is a long way from [here], but what happens there matters a great deal here. For the risks that the leaders of a rogue state will use nuclear, chemical or biological weapons against us or our allies is the greatest security threat we face."
--Madeline Albright, Feb 18, 1998
"He will use those weapons of mass destruction again, as he has ten times since 1983."
--Sandy Berger, Clinton National Security Adviser, Feb, 18, 1998
"[W]e urge you, after consulting with Congress, and consistent with the U.S. Constitution and laws, to take necessary actions (including, if appropriate, air and missile strikes on suspect Iraqi sites) to respond effectively to the threat posed by Iraq's refusal to end its weapons of mass destruction programs."
Letter to President Clinton, signed by:
-- Democratic Senators Carl Levin, Tom Daschle, John Kerry, and others, Oct. 9, 1998
"Saddam Hussein has been engaged in the development of weapons of mass destruction technology which is a threat to countries in the region and he has made a mockery of the weapons inspection process."
-Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D, CA), Dec. 16, 1998
"Hussein has ... chosen to spend his money on building weapons of mass destruction and palaces for his cronies."
-- Madeline Albright, Clinton Secretary of State, Nov. 10, 1999
"There is no doubt that ... Saddam Hussein has reinvigorated his weapons programs. Reports indicate that biological, chemical and nuclear programs continue apace and may be back to pre-Gulf War status. In addition, Saddam continues to redefine delivery systems and is doubtless using the cover of a licit missile program to develop longer-range missiles that will threaten the United States and our allies."
Letter to President Bush, Signed by:
-- Sen. Bob Graham (D, FL), and others, Dec 5, 2001
"We begin with the common belief that Saddam Hussein is a tyrant and a threat to the peace and stability of the region. He has ignored the mandate of the United Nations and is building weapons of mass destruction and th! e means of delivering them."
-- Sen. Carl Levin (D, MI), Sept. 19, 2002
"We know that he has stored secret supplies of biological and chemical weapons throughout his country."
-- Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002
"Iraq's search for weapons of mass destruction has proven impossible to deter and we should assume that it will continue for as long as Saddam is in power."
-- Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002
"We have known for many years that Saddam Hussein is seeking and developing weapons of mass destruction."
-- Sen. Ted Kennedy (D, MA), Sept. 27, 2002
"The last UN weapons inspectors left Iraq in October of 1998. We are confident that Saddam Hussein retains some stockpiles of chemical and biological weapons, and that he has since embarked on a crash course to build up his chemical and biological warfare capabilities. Intelligence reports indicate that he is seeking nuclear weapons..."
-- Sen. Robert Byrd (D, WV), Oct. 3, 2002
"I will be voting to give the President of the United States the authority to use force -- if necessary -- to disarm Saddam Hussein because I believe that a deadly arsenal of weapons of mass destruction in his hands is a real and grave threat to our security."
-- Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Oct. 9, 2002
"There is unmistakable evidence that Saddam Hussein is working aggressively to develop nuclear weapons and will likely have nuclear weapons within the next five years ... We also should remember we have always underestimated the progress Saddam has made in development of weapons of mass destruction."
-- Sen. Jay Rockefeller (D, WV), Oct 10, 2002
"He has systematically violated, over the course of the past 11 years, every significant UN resolution that has demanded that he disarm and destroy his chemical and biological weapons, and any nuclear capacity. This he has refused to do"
-- Rep. Henry Waxman (D, CA), Oct. 10, 2002
"In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program. He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including al Qaeda members ... It is clear, however, that if left unchecked, Saddam Hussein will continue to increase his capacity to wage biological and chemical warfare, and will keep trying to develop nuclear weapons."
-- Sen. Hillary Clinton (D, NY), Oct 10, 2002
"We are in possession of what I think to be compelling evidence that Saddam Hussein has, and has had for a number of years, a developing capacity for the production and storage of weapons of mass destruction."
-- Sen. Bob Graham (D, FL), Dec. 8, 2002
"Without question, we need to disarm Saddam Hussein. He is a brutal, murderous dictator, leading an oppressive regime ... He presents a particularly grievous threat because he is so consistently prone to miscalculation ... And now he is miscalculating America's response to his continued deceit and his consistent grasp for weapons of mass destruction ... So the threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is real..."
-- Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Jan. 23. 2003
LMAO.
Maybe you should read before you remove all doubt what a repugnant dumb little uninformed asshole you are?

How surprising! A lot of bluster & namecalling, but no intelligent refutation.
Bush made the decision to invade Iraq. I know you guys are tripping over yourselves trying to give Democrats "credit" now, which - by the way - tells me that the left was right in 2003, and that you guys were as wrong as you could have been.
Iraq was a mistake - glad to hear you admit that now. But it was Bush's mistake. That's the way it was, and that's the way history will record it, no matter how much bluster you can fabricate on a message board.
Bush's war.

I realize that I should - he's definitely a troll. But sometimes (like on this thread), it's still kind of fun.
I don't know why, but I get a kick out of righties trying to distance Bush & themselves from the Iraq War now. Must be because they called me & other Democrats traitors for years because of the war we now apparently were responsible for.

I understand.... I compare "debating" (if you can really call it that) with truth deflector to poking fun at the retarded kid in grade school. It is a guilty pleasure, but I always feel like I need to go wash my hands and pray afterwards. And really... if you look at the sum total of his posts, they are, on average, 95% gratuitous insults and 5% hackery. Why bother?
LMAO; this is your brain on stupid....don't do stupid.
Who is arguing? No one can argue with brain dead idiots like you. We post the facts then point at morons like you and laugh.
Dunce.
How sweet; two dunces on equal footing at the lower end of the IQ scale having a circle jerk to see who looks dumber.
Yet, the only one who posted any facts would be me wouldn't it you pathetic brain dead leftist twit?
