Well, there were WMDs in Iraq.

There were terrorists in Iraq (before the invasion of Iraq). Some, had killed Americans.

To the best of my knowledge, no one from the Administration said, that Iraq had something to do with 9/11. Links to al Qaeda, yes. Direct links to 9/11, no.

This war has to do with oil. It is a major reason, why the world was willing to put up with Saddam for so long. It is also reason, why the French, Russians, and Chinese were willing to let a man like Saddam remain the President of Iraq - and make deals with him.

IMO, you can object to the war and still love America (but IMO, you'd still be wrong).

If you are referring to Iraqis as "brown people", you are mistaken. Even if you were correct (about the Iraqi/"brown people" remark), you'd be wrong.
60 years ago, the United States invaded France to remove the Dictator Hitler (who committed genocide and killed 10s of millions). That's o.k. because they were white people?
Last year, the United States invaded Iraq to remove the Dictator Saddam (who committed genocide and killed millions). That's wrong, because the Iraqis are not "white people"?

Yes, Bush did win the election. Yes it was very close - Ralph Nader made the difference.

The lives of brown people are worth less than those of white people
Oh, and Bush really won the election, really, just look at the map."
