When you consider the section of the electorate who doesn't know who the vice president is, where Iraq is, or who their senator might be- one can understand why they believed the misleading rhetoric that coupled 9/11 and Iraq in speeches, and talked about the "threat" to the US Iraq posed. What I can't understand is why anyone who might have been educated bought it- but I'll let that slide- emotionalism does funny things to people.

But after several years to reflect, and after finding out everything about the "threat" was pretty much a pipe dream (he "would have" if he "could have")- I've got to wonder about the sanity of the people still shilling for the President's poor decision.
