CBO Scores The Price of The Iraq War

By "revisionist view" you mean the truth.

Key word of "truth" that Condi says is "had", as in had weapons of mass destruction.  Yes, "had".  As in all the material, the equipment and the education to make the chemical WMD that the US supplied to him to use on Iran.  And that were all used up by the time we got there. 

Gee, I wonder why Iran is even more angry than before at the US.  I guess destroying their legitimate government to install our puppet just wasn't quite enough.  We also had to help there biggest enemy in the area use chemical weapons on them - in direct violation of about how many international treaties we have signed on to??  All of them that address the topic.

No, let's not 'stipulate that' at the time the decision was made we did not know that there were no WMD's left.  There is MORE than ample information supplied by a wide variety of people, that he did not have any left.

Ahhh, yes.  Revisionist history.  Gotta love it.

Setting your own stipulations?

I have at least as much right to do so as she does.  I have not been shown to have perpetuated a massive lie against the American people.  Nor have I been instrumental in activities that have killed over 4,000 of our kids.  And maimed tens of thousands more.  Nor have I been even remotely responsible for squandering over a trillion dollars on "paybacks for Daddy".

Certainly do wish I could have gotten $50 billion worth of no-bid contracts with the government, though!  Man, do I REALLY wish I could have gotten that!!!!!!

It really is NO wonder that Colin Powell calls his time with the Bush Regime his biggest embarrassment.  (Clarification and elaboration;  Colin Powell... good guy.)

Re-read some of your posts.

Exactly!  Like I said.

Well, not quite.
But I understand that you might think that.

Actually, this quiet little backwater is not quite up to the scale of "the American People".  There are what, maybe a few hundred who read this regularly?  And NOBODY is forced to support what I say.  Or die for it.  Or have children and grandchildren and great grandchildren and so on who are going to be paying for anything I say due to the trillon dollars I didn't get to spend.  But if I could get that $50 billion no-bid contract, maybe they would have to pay some...

You gotta start somewhere.

And I have.  Truth and justice will prevail!

Rust never sleeps!

You're doomed.

No one gets out of this alive.  I just want to be able to look my kids, grand, etc in the eye when we meet next.
