TooTall does not fact-check. If he did he would have noticed that the Kerry statement he cited was cut off in mid-sentence.
LostKeys brings up the best argument that Bush lied America into the US invasion of Iraq and it has little to do with any of the intelligence that anyone saw prior to the return of UN inspectors in December 2002.
LostKeys argues that the left were the ones who were trying to make the UN relevant with regard to disarming Iraq peacefully without war. That is right as we can see in the speech by Kerry that TooTall cited. But it was also Bush who claimed that he wanted to disarm Iraq peacefully and would exhaust all peaceful means rather than start a war.
So LostKeys is right. Bush lied about supporting the UN and wanting to avoid war and TooTall was kind enough to post Kerry's Georgetown speech where Kerry gave Bush that pre-war reminder that it would be unwise to start a war unless all peaceful alternatives had been exhausted.
They NEVER give up on trying to make the UN relevant.

So Kerry sent Powell to the UN to lie? Nope, it was DICK and W who pulled that string.
