I'm not criticizing the course of action. I'm criticizing Bush for trying to cram this freedom and liberty crap down our throats as if it's our moral imparative as an excuse for Iraq, and then turning around and immediately ignoring it. It's disgusting, hypocritical, and demeaning to the American people. And he was rewarded for it with a second term.
Each situation requires its own course of action, and its own prioritization. I'm fully aware of that. But when it dawned on Bush that his priorities were screwed up by going into Iraq, he began to become a broken record, claiming that nothing else takes priority over freedom and protecting against terrorist threats. But his actions do not support those words, so clearly those aren't his real priorities. From day one, he hasn't made a single true statement as to why we're in Iraq.
