>> Earlier this week, inode, with 'a straight face', posted that there was a strong urgency to the invasion of Iraq and suggested that waiting for the UN inspectors to finish their jobs was not only unacceptable but dangerous.

Iraq had been a problem since the Gulf War. Regime change had been the official policy of the country since the late 90s. Saddam was going to be removed.

There was no reason, whatsoever, to delay it. The WMDs were one of many reasons for the invasion; but Bush had been told WMDs were a slam dunk and it was easy for people to understand.

The Iraq War was not only necessary, it was the right thing to have done at the time, which every important Democrat agreed to at the time. Only after the going got tough did the Democrats run from their support.
