it, and is justified despite us knowing all of their prewar claims to be false. Oh, and let's not forget the soon to be 500 billion dollar price tag.

Bush Says Iraq War Was Justified Even Though Intelligence Wrong

Dec. 14 (Bloomberg) -- President George W. Bush accepted responsibility for taking the U.S. to war in Iraq based on faulty intelligence while saying the invasion still was justified by the threat posed by Saddam Hussein and international terrorism.

``It is true that much of the intelligence turned out to be wrong,'' Bush said today in the final speech in a series intended to outline his Iraq strategy. ``Given Saddam's history and the lessons of September the 11th, my decision to remove Saddam Hussein was the right decision.''

5. Bush thinks America is made up of a bunch of morons
He's out of touch with most folks in the middle and the left. All who support him now come from the right, and that's it.

6. Bush has admitted his responsibility.
Now it's time for him to turn himself over to the World Court for a war crimes trial.

8. What he's saying is that an unprovoked, aggressive war for regime change..
...is justifiable.

Not only has he provided justification for the goals of the terrorists, he's placed every government on notice that if Dubya doesn't likeya, there's no power on the planet that can stop him.

Still wondering why Iran and N Korea want the bomb?

9. He still won't admit a mistake
Fucking pigheaded son of a whore. All the money that has been stolen from our treasury is coming right back to line the pockets of the haves and havemores.
I'm so fucking mad right now I'd better stop.
