To the annoying and comprehension-deprived Pankratz troll:
Remember when you mother told you that just because everyone else was jumping off a cliff, there was no reason for you to, too? I thought not.
In the climate of PNAC-inspired mass hysteria, a lot of Democrats fell in with the Bushies about their Iraq nonsense, to their everlasting shame. (The everlasting shame of the Democrats is a recurring theme here, which you'd know about if you could read...)
But then, as righty cretins always do, you proceed to use such pathetic capitulation as evidence for your specious arguments, on both sides, in the classic "heads I win, tails you lose" manner of the dignity and honor restoring set.
See, Democrats (and even the perfidious French, no less!) believed there were WMD in Iraq, so Bush was right all along.
Also, intelligence agencies can't be trusted, anyway, particularly when their assumptions don't agree with yours, so you're, (surprise) right again.
The wronger you are, the righter you get. It's good work for otherwise unemployable Republicans like George Bush and yourself.
For a sane, thinking person, being wrong before, with company or not, does not lead to being right today.
Please make a note of it.
