"Independent" is a word Republicans like to use these days as a method of getting the Bush stink off of them. They still talk, vote and think like Republicans but they just don't have to take any responsibility for what the GOP has done to America and the world.
Quote:I can justify why we should have gone to war with Iraq.
I was wondering about that.
If you were back in time and president of the US in 2003, you would have invaded Iraq all over again with the only difference that you would have sold it to the public differently? Even knowing what a clusterfuck it was inevitably going to turn into? Even knowing Saddam had no ties to Al Qaida and we'd be creating the perfect playground for Al Qaida?
Would you have handled the reconstruction any better? Would you have also fired all the Baathists knowing it would leave them unemployed and forced to turn to leading the terrorists in rebellion? Would you have planned it any better. Bush banked on "...and they all lived happily ever after" and when that didn't happen, they were blindsided.
