Does "You can keep your insurance," equal, "Iraq has weapons of mass destruction," at any level whatsoever?
Simple question

good question. since colin powell was the guy who showed his "home movies" of the iraqi's traing for gas attacks, you might want to pose the question to him, eh? he's the guy who convinced bush and a bipartisan congress to go to war.

I believe they were both calculated lies. We were and are manipulated with lies constantly by our 'leaders'. I'm tired of it. The WMD's at face value was hard to determine as a lie when compared to Obamacare's lies.
Without the lies I would have been for invading Iraq (but leaving after 4 years) and not for Obamacare. Essentially both lies have been and will be highly destructive of our Republic for many years to come.
I didn't favor invading Iraq then and I haven't heard reasons since then that are good enough for me to change my mind.
I am not in favor of Obamacare because I prefer as little government involvement in my health care as possible. There are things that the government could have done and should have done, but taking over health care as a whole was not one of those things.
I do not appreciate being lied to - especially by my government and especially when it costs lives.

At some point honest liberals will start answering even the most inconvenient questions (bump).

I really need a liberal comment on this.

Can't I get one simple answer from a liberal?
A simple, honest answer to that question by a liberal?
I don't think that is even remotely a possibility.

Yes, it could be equal if they both lied. I understand why people think Bush lied, but I still believe his only thing he did wrong was to keep telling Sadaam we were coming and for weeks he was warned. In those weeks the WMD had been moved...but that's for another day
Now, Obama may have thought it was true at first, but right up until this year he's said the same thing. To me he was lying somewhere in there, or if not....then he's just incredibly stupid and uninformed. Oh well...of course he does only learn of what's going on by watching the news.
And one more thing....Bush came out in public and made the statement that there were no WMD in Iraq. Which was true....at that time. He was admitting his mistake.
When is Obama going to come out and admit he made a mistake....ever?

Oh yes, I definitely believe that when they first said there were WMD's there those WMD's were there and that those WMD's went to Syria in that huge convoy that every satellite saw and recorded.
But yes. I allowed that argument to be for another day.

Bush made a little mistake, it only killed thousands of Americans and means even more...but at least he admitted it. By the way Obama just sent another drone and killed another leader of terrorism without one American life being lost. He must've seen that on the news, at least it wasn't FOXNews, after all you said he learns about things watching TV.
