Bush was SMART enough to use the information of the many leaders, countries and advisers who believed Iraq had WMD. People love to point to finger at Bush for "lying" that Iraq had WMDs, but nobody cares where he got his information from. Bush was just acting on the information he had at hand, its not his fault it may have been false info.

THAT is the problem that those of you (in the 29% that STILL approve of this idiot) seem to IGNORE.....Bush DIDN'T get information from from many leaders, countries and advisers who believed Iraq had WMD. He MANUFACTURED information that support that position and IGNORED the MOUNTAIN of evidence to the contrary.
And to say that the wars in Vietnam and Iraq are similar is like saying that Kansas and Oregon are similar. Vietnam was jungle where the enemy (mostly in a uniform) could be 5 feet away and you couldn't see him. Iraq is a desert and urban setting where ONLY Americans are in a uniform so NO ONE knows who's the enemy is.
And as for him going a military school......finishing 5th FROM THE BOTTOM does NOT give one a lot of confidence IMO!
Wheres your information that the Vietnamese were in uniforms? And in a dense jungle an enemy could be in a tree above your head and you would have no idea he was there. How many times did Americans mistake Vietnamese civilians for enemy combatants? If the Vietnamese wore uniforms all the time how did they make the mistake? Please tell me how.
So lets see the evidence that says that no other country or intelligence agency though Iraq had WMDs. The facts are that other countries agreed with Bush. If you think that other countries though Iraq had WMDs solely on Bush's opinion than thats just plain ignorance.
