Reg,

I disagree. Bill O.'s point was that Bush did NOT "lie" to America and the world about Iraq having WMD's as Moore would like us to believe. His point, which MM refused to recognize or accept, was that Bush was told by MI6, Putin and the (pitiful) CIA that Saddam DID have WMD's. He then acted on this information. He HAD to. If he didn't act and it turned out he DID have WMD's and used them or sold them to others who used them on us or our allies, what would have been the consequences of his INaction? Everyone would want his head on a stick.

Put yourself in that position. What would you do? I would have reluctantly done the same thing. Waiting for a full coalition with France, Germany and Russia etc would take far too long to happen; if at all. Time was not on Bush's side. It was too much of a gamble. With the intelligence he was given, he was damned if he did and damned if he didn't.

Just my .02
