"History needs a clear view of Bush & his methods." Not because he is a bsd man per se but because he has somehow managed to create a nightmarish presidency on three core issues--iraq, katrina and climate. Re. climate. I think most of the stuff happening today is probably more our parents and even grandparents fault than ours. What we are doing or not doing today however will affect our children, grandchildren and great grandchildren for generations. I smoked when i was younger and smoked in the car with my kids present. I had no clue that this was harmful. So i get a pass but anyone who smokes in their car today with their kids present is doing something criminal. Time to fix things, not to apportion blame for what has already happened.

I don't accept your premise. The Iraq war wasn't about Bush proving that Sadaam had WMD.Thats just liberal MSM propaganda that will not stand the test of time. You have no "facts" in that regard. WMD could have been hidden...to yet be found. WMD could have been trucked to Syria as some reports suggested. The absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. It was Sadaams obligation to show WMD or show documentation that he destroyed what was known to be there. He refused. Sadaam was bound by legal UN cease fire agreements going back to the first Gulf War. Bush upheld the agreements when Sadaam was found to be in breach of them. You don't like that...but history will show it that way.
