[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by Big_Boy_4005</i> <br /><br />Dave, James has not presented a quote newer than 3 years old. The situation and publicly known facts have changed since then, and much of the country feels that we were duped. <br /> <br />The current administration is very good at misrepresenting things to gain public support. Judging from the president's approval rating, people are catching on. Some people can just see through crap better than others. <br /> <br />The best thing about Bush is he can't be re-elected again. Thank God for term limits!!! <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />You see, this is what I'm talking about. Your entire POV is based on fantasy, not fact. <br /> <br />What has changed from 3 years ago that provides new FACTUAL information regarding the reasons for the Iraq action? Nothing. However, there has been an ongoing slander campaign in which Democrats are trying to rewrite history to both (1) claim that Bush had information somehow unavailable to the Democrats regarding Iraq and WMD which countered the rational for going to war (but of course, when pressed for any documentation of this alleged counter info, they got nothin'), and (2) somehow claim that all along they were doubtful and suspicious of the intellegence information that made the case viable in the first place (when of course during the late 1990's it was the Democrats who were all over the place claiming Saddam had and would use WMD against the US - Didn't you see or read my reference to the Tim Russert interview of Teddy Kennedy?) <br /> <br />The president"s current approval rating does have connections to this propagation of fasle claims against the president, so your slander campaign is having the desired effect, at least for now. I for one believe that the majority of Americans, when and if given the truth about the Democrats slander campaign, will renew their collective faith in Bush. After all, the economy is rocking, we won the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, and are well ahead of any timetable for establishing the new democracies in those countries, most of the Al Qaida leadership is either dead or captured, Bin Laden is probably wormfood by now, and most importantly of all, peoples in the Middle East are experiencing their first realistic chances at democracy and all the benefits that ensue. <br /> <br />If you have factual reference that the Bush Adminstration "misrepresented" anything, please provide the proof. Compared to Clinton, this administration has had a nearly spotless record when it comes to integrity and honesty.
