Heartbreaking that despite being vaccinated he was one of the few to succumb to COVID-19.
RIP

(3,396 posts)invasion knowing well that it was not true. He relegated to uphold to his principles, he could have saved the USA and the World from the chaos the Iraq invasion created.
I lost all respect for him, I would have voted for him if he had run for president prior to that infamous moment of his life, and I think he knew it, he always looked sad and ashamed after that.
I hope that knowing his time on earth was short, that maybe he left something written to bring documented clarity to the whole 9/11 and Iraq invasion affair, that could be his legacy, the USA and the World deserve an apology from him, and that could be the best he could have done.

(3,396 posts)There is no excuse for what he did, he could have stopped the invasion on its track but decided instead to lie about it and enable the Bush administration to invade Iraq.
No excuse.
