They are morons, truly. You cannot reason with them, they are happy with their ignorance, and do not care to be enlightened. They will continue to believe the crap that is spewed from many a talk show hosts mouth (Rush,O'Reilly and Hannity) BTW, how does Bush say it? "Ya fool me once, shame on you,...uh,..... fool me twice......uh,....ya can't get fooled again!"

Some people just can not face the truth. Then they would actually have to question their choices. Easier to be in denial.

With AQ there now, and the last several years, how did she "distort" the truth? She never said we originally went to Iraq to fight AQ at all. This is a current truth, and it is no stretch at all to determine other radical islamic factions wish us the same harm. Keep reaching, keep hating.

Repetition by various public officials and the media. Only a couple of people actually said that Iraq had anything to do with 9/11, but the insinuations were there.

I am absolutely stunned that there are still idiots who think there was an Iraq-9/11 connection when even Bush acknowledges there wasn't.

It's FACT people.
You know, just like Al-Qaeda, we created the problem, so now we're justified in trying to solve the problem, but we only make it worse.
