They are now saying the main source, a British asset who never talked
to the US, was a fraud. It is interesting that Blair is not getting
more of the blame.
All of the things Powell was saying at the UN (mobile weapons labs and
WMD accidents that killed a number of workers) came from the Brits.

The main "source" for mobile weapons labs "intelligence" was Curveball.
Curveball was a German "asset."
An embezzler, possibly alcoholic, looking for a green card.
He was discredited totally by UN weapons inspectors before the war was
launched.

We can't let facts get in the way of blaming Bush for everything tho.

This is some of the most hilarious bull**** I've see in a long time.
Bush/Cheney/Tenet/Powell had nothing to do with it.
It's all Tony Blairs's fault!

Blair certainly has blood on his hands, but for this country,
Bush/Cheney/Tenet/Powell (in a lesser role) promoted this "intel" as
the excuse to go to war, with no actual corroborating evidence.

They have equal if not a greater amount of blood on their hands.

That is getting closer to the truth. You also had people in congress,
including plenty of Democrats beating the war drum

After having been fed lies from Bush/Cheney... sure.

That begs the question, how stupid were the Democrats?
Why would they listen to a guy they were calling an idiot?

Well, I guess when the President/VP and CIA gin up a bunch of
nonsense, even those dumb Democrats get fooled.

They all heard the same intelligence briefings and they all had the
chance to challenge the information. You can't ignore the input of
Schumer and Lieberman. I have already told you many times why they
wanted Saddam gone, pretty much at any cost.
You act like this was Bush's decision, alone and congress did not go
along.

Nonsense. The don't get to "challenge" the evidence. They were
consulted and presented with evidence.

I could go get the vote if you like. I could also get the sponsors of
the resolution and what they wrote.

I think you need to get a reality dose. Bush and Cheney lied and
murdered a bunch of people. They should go to jail.
