little slow on the draw, Georgey
So why are the GOP talking heads all acting like it's something new that people think W "deliberately mislead" Congress and the American people regarding the WMD situation in Iraq?
I remember pretty damn clearly when this war was still building up that the many were saying extant evidence for Iraq having WMDs was contested and shaky. But it was a heck of a lot easier than selling the war on the grounds that it was a good time for the US to attempt to remake the Middle East in its own image.
I don't really blame him for taking that route. And accusing a politician of "deliberately misleading" anyone is really only saying they were talking again.
The GOP needs to get their collective panties out of a wad and just tell the Dems and the American people that it's a little late in the course to just give up on Iraq and go home. It's like Rove always said - if you're explaining, you're losing.
