Just going to leave this here.

Yeah, I saw that...

long and short... we knew there were WMDs there, we also know that some were given to Syria, and some of it was dumped in the river. But there was never anywhere near what was being reported. I'm still not really sure what even the point of going in there was. Yes, there was Al Qaeda, but did we really prove that the attacks / training took place from there rather than from Afghanistan?

I know Iraq ended up well after Trump surged and we've basically got 2,500 troops in there now, which gives us a strategic air base from which to launch drones, etc... but Iraq really turned out to be a scam.

Despite the former presidents gaffe and Leftist MSLSD's moronic claim of a "Freudian slip", let's start with the FACT that the decision to invade Iraq was NOT "the decision of one man".

Joint Resolution 114 was taken on Oct. 11, 2002. It passed the Senate by a vote of 77 to 23, and the House of Representatives by a vote of 296 to 133.

The United States Congress passed Public Law 107-243, titled: “Authorization for the Use of Military Force in Iraq Resolution of 2002.”

This law granted the president authorization to "use the Armed Forces of the United States as he determines to be necessary and appropriate" regarding Iraq.

Leftists hate history because it always proves them wrong.

Yet apparently, it was all Joe Biden's fault that the Dow has dropped. Funny how that works.

Another overblown, hyperventilating rant about Leftists, in response to an inconsequential moment (when George W. Bush misspoke) that will soon be forgotten, and forgotten by most everyone that is a "Leftist" in the Alice In Wonderland distortion of the English language that is the most obvious characteristic of the forum's Ranter In Chief.

I've seen enough of MSNBC over the years to say with perfect confidence that no sane individual could accuse that network of ever distorting, or concealing these facts about that Joint Resolution or the "Iraq" AUMF of 2002. Not distorted, or concealed, or even slyly "swept under the rug" by MSNBC in any consistent or clearly identifiable way, over the years since 2002.

(I guess "MSLSD" is a reference to MSNBC.)

Unsurprisingly, your compulsive trolling so entirely consumes you that you don't understand what was actually posted that you're struggling ineffectually to troll.

but.....

Leftists gotta Leftist
