Reply #7: Wel, there was Clinton [View All]

[bryant69]

Former President Clinton painted a picture of Iraq that was largely the same as the one President Bush painted. Frankly since shortly after the Gulf War there has been a perception that Saddam Hussein was seeking WMDs (or more WMDs) and that he was a threat to the region and to the US. Democrats and Republicans both believed this (although Greens, as I understand it, did not). So when President Bush said something everybody already thought, they kind of bought it.
