Well, I think what you were saying is that we shouldn't believe anything Bush says about Iraq because the beginning of the war was based on falsehoods, which to me means "lies." It's one thing to be skeptical on statements based on intelligence, because our intelligence on Iraq has proven to be faulty. But another thing entirely to disbelieve what is based on facts on the ground that can be seen, objectively, by objective observers. You aren't being asked to believe that the government of Iraq really wants us to stay for a while, they've said it in public, if you didn't hear them with your own ears you can read it on news sites like WashPost and NYTimes.
