Even if we win easily, we have no plausible exit strategy. Iraq is a deeply divided society that the United States would have to occupy and police for many years to create a viable state.

This guy was a signatory and was interviewed on cspan. Needless to say, he pointed-out the obvious Invading Iraq was a collossal foreign policy disaster that broke America's economic back.

TOLD YOU SO Thanks A LOT chickenhawks

We occupied it and policed it very well until dipsHit Obabble took over....

^ Here's Iraq after we removed Saddam

^Here's Iraq after Obama switch sides to support Islamic Jihad

They did the same thing on the West Bank....isn't democracy wonderful?

ISIS is a Progressive Democracy

Then they are stupid. You can't have it both ways.

The entire world is stupid because they trusted the President of the United States of America is what you are saying. OK, everyone is stupid for trusting the President of the United States of America. We have a problem if nobody will trust the President of the United States of America.

Before we can fix our problem we have to admit we have a problem. Refusal to admit the problem makes the problem irreparable. That means it can not be repaired. Cowards refuse to admit their mistakes and people with no moral character refuse to admit their mistakes.
America is the home of the brave and we are not afraid to admit our mistakes. We are also a nation of people with high degrees and levels of moral character.
You'll understand it some day.

I understand perfectly. The UN and democrats had the same intelligence and the democrats said Saddam had WMDs before Bush became president. We can agree or disagree whether invasion was right or wrong, but when it comes to blame there is more than enough for all participants. That's my point. Putting the entire blame on Bush is dishonest.

You are missing the whole point. The UN and the Congress, Democrat and Republican did not have the same intelligence. They had the cherry picked, bastardized, manipulated intelligence that Bush and his administration tricked them with. That is what Wilson-Plame scandal was all about. That is what the DOWNING STREET MEMO's were all about. That is why the shit hit the fan when wikileaks came out. That is why the shit hit the fan when the administration was forced through court orders to declassify specific documents.
When all the data came out the whole world looked at the USA called and called us a bunch of liars who started a war over lies. We looked into it and discovered we were a bunch of liars. We admitted our failure and mistakes and exposed the bastards who put us in that position. There are some among us who refuse to take responsibility for letting this crime occur.

Tell me would you allow 100,000 children to starve each year if YOU knew you had NO WMDs
and all you needed to do was certify that all WMDs were destroyed?
This is all Saddam had to do.

Do you understand?
He stood by and let kids starve rather then ADMIT he had NO WMDs!

Which is why the embargo by the UN and dozens of nations was enforced...again because he wouldn't admit!

Why would a sane man allow 500,000 children to starve if he didn't have WMDs?

In five years 576,000 children starved BECAUSE SADDAM refused to certify WMD destruction!
Iraq Sanctions Kill Children U.N. Reports - New York Times

Please recognize this simple fact that the world including these 32 democrat quotes all
could NOT understand why Saddam would allow 576,000 kids to starve because HE would
NOT certify WMDs were destroyed!
DO YOU understand??? These people believed as did most intelligent people that NO one would continue to refuse signing the simple statement Iraq's WMDs were destroyed.
Why wouldn't Saddam sign it and prevent 576,000 children from starving!

"..deny Iraq the capacity to develop WMD".Bill Clinton,1998
"..most brutal dictators of Century", Biden,1998
"Iraq compliance with Resolution 687 becomes shell game"..Daschle 1998
"He will use those WMDs again,as he has ten times since 1983" ..Berger Clinton Ntl. Secur. Advr 1998
"posed by Iraq's refusal to end its WMD programs" Levin 1998
"Saddam has been engaged in development of WMDs which is a threat.."Pelosi 1998 WHERE'D SHE GET THIS INFORMATION BEFORE BUSH?
"Hussein has chosen to spend his money on building WMDS.."Albright 1999
"Saddam to refine delivery systems, that will threaten the US..."Graham 2001
"Saddam has ignored the mandate of the UN and is building WMDs and the means to deliver.." Levin 2002
"Iraq's search for WMDs ...will continue as long as Saddam's in power"..Gore 2002
"Saddam retains stockpiles of WMDS.."Byrd 2002
"..give President authority to use force..to disarm Saddam because an arsenal of WMDs..threat our security"..Kerry 2002
"..Unmistakable evidence Saddam developing nuclear weapons next 5 years.."Rockefeller 2002
"Violated over 11 years every UN resolution demanding disarming WMDs.."Waxman 2002
"He's given aid,comfort & sanctuary to al Qaeda members..and keep developing WMDs"..
Hillary 2002
"Compelling evidence Saddam has WMDs production storage capacity.." Graham 2002
"Without a question, we need to disarm Saddam. He is a brutal, murderous dictator, leading an oppressive regime .... He presents a particularly grievous threat because he is so consistently prone to miscalculation ... And now he is miscalculating America's response to his continued deceit and his consistent grasp for weapons of mass destruction .... So the threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is real ...."Kerry , Jan. 23. 2003.

Why are you such a supporter of the terrorists and ISIS???

YUP the same Democrat NYT kept telling us how BAD our troops treated people and they like Obama and these traitors HELPED the terrorists by calling OUR Troops Terrorists!

Please tell me if you as the quasi terrorist you are and deep islamic terrorist supporter that you are would LOVE to read these quotes:
Senator Kerry (D) "American soldiers going into the homes of Iraqis in the dead of night, terrorizing kids and children."
Do you think these were encouraging words to OUR military or to the terrorists?

U.S. Rep. John Murtha(D)"Our troops killed innocent civilians in cold blood,”

Durbin (D)"must have been done by Nazis, Soviets"--action of Americans in the treatment of their prisoners.

Senator Obama said "troops are air-raiding villages and killing civilians,"

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid(D)"The war is lost, the surge is not accomplishing anything "
