It is completely relevant. "Bush lied, Bush lied, Bush lied." I'm in an echo chamber.
One cannot say Bush lied without admitting that everyone in office or an appointed position that was in office prior to Bush lied as well.
AS far as lying and getting us into war? I don't think Bush was lying any more than I think Clinton or Albright or anyone else was lying.
What I do think, though, was that Bush had the political will and balls to do what was right. I think it was right. You do not. That's fine.
The Bush bashers want to avoid the reality of what was said and believed prior to when he was in office. Sorry, Iraq and Saddam is a problem that goes back at least to the Gulf War I. International relations go back farther than 5-6 years.
So accuse me of trying to blame everything on Clinton. The thing is, I'm not blaming anyone. I'm glad we're in Iraq and Saddam is gone. So I'm not blaming anyone, I'm merely stating what the facts were. I'm pointing out the utter hypocrisy of those that want to stand on their pulpits and call Bush a liar when the people they suuprt politically said the same or even more damning things about Saddam.
