Buz is the thing you should really fear.
As I understand the Biblical prophecies they will become the predominate military force with UN's blessing allied with the old communist block. It all leads up to the final Armageddon where the nations are prophesied to be drawn into the region for the final bloody biggy before the 2nd advent of messiah/christ Jesus who will rule the world at the temple mount in Jerusalem for a millenium.
It's fulfillment of prophecy. Read it in Zechariah 14, Ezekiel 38, 39, Joel and elsewhere. End time focus is emerging in the Mid East where Israel has been regathered and reborn as the messianic nation exactly as Jesus, and the prophets foretold with Israel the focus and bone of contention. It's all about who will prevail, the prophet of Allah, Mohammed or the prophet/messiah of Jehovah, Jesus at the temple mount for world domination.
It is the people in the US, Christians, that believe such nonsense that really scare the hell outta me.
Don't forget the liberals who also supported the war. Hindsight leaves both sides of the isle wanting.
Bullshit Buz. When the Administration flat lied to both the people and the Congress, withheld and distorted evidence, the blame lies squarely on their shoulders.
The Bush Administration is a great example of the willful ignorance, dishonesty and self delusion of the Christian Cult of Ignorance.

Whose fault was it?
The fault was the general one that is so prevalent in the Christian Cult of Ignorance, of not challenging those things that confirm what you want to believe.

Classic denial of the FACTS by Biblical Christians.
Bush got his primary faulty intelligence from none other than a liberal Democrat, the one and only cabinet holdover of the Clinton Admin, George Tenet. Bush should have overhauled the decrepid CIA at the onset of his admin given the messups during the Clinton years including the Bin Laden debacle when he should have been nabbed et al. So Your claim that this invasion was a conservative messup is bogus. Tenet is now making millions on his new book trying to shift the lion's share of the blame on everyone but himself when the lion's share lies on his lap and under his watch.
The FACT is Buz, Clinton did NOT invade Irag. In addition, your attempt to once again palm the pea by injecting Bin Laden has been noted. Bin Laden is totally unrelated to the Iraq Invasion.
Remember it was George Senior who gave Iraq the green light to invade Kuwait the first time around, and then changed horses when he actually trust George Senior and took him at his word.
It was George Junior that Invaded Iraq the second time.
And NEITHER invasion had anything to do with Bin Laden.

Let's see if Buz can support THIS one. LOL
He fired all the judges and stacked the judiciary with liberals.
I suppose you have some evidence that he fired all the judges or is this like your Bible prophecy claims, just spouting nonsense with no supporting evidence?
AbE:
Just to make it easy on you Buz, "Article III of the Constitution states that these judicial officers are appointed for a life term."
So now please explan how Clinton fired all the judges?
Edited by jar, : add reference to Article III.

Well, under the Law which was in effect during Clinton's Administration the Attorneys were appointed by the President for a term of 4 years and confirmed by the Senate.
However, part of the Patriot Act enacted by President Bush and the Republican majority created a way to bypass the Congressional approval process.
On March 9, 2006, President George W. Bush signed into law the USA PATRIOT Act[6] which amends Section 546 by striking subsections (c) and (d) and inserting the following new subsection:
(c) A person appointed as United States attorney under this section may serve until the qualification of a United States Attorney for such district appointed by the President under section 541 of this title.
This, in effect, extinguishes the 120 day limit on interim U.S. Attorneys, and their appointment has an indefinite term. If the president fails to put forward any nominee to the Senate, then the Senate confirmation process is avoided, as the Attorney General-appointed interim U.S. Attorney shall continue in office. Due to the dismissal of U.S. attorneys controversy, the United States Congress in March 2007 repealed the amendments of the USA PATRIOT Act to the interim appointment statute. [7] This proposed change can be sent to the President, who could either sign it or veto it.
Also:
At the beginning of his term President Clinton requested resignations from all U.S. Attorneys appointed by the prior administration as is standard with new Presidents.
The interesting part was that one of those Attorneys was replaced by the Clinton appointee Eric Holder, who proceeded to indict Dan Rostenkowski (D, Illinois) in the summer of 1994 for fraud.
Note that the Clinton appointed Attorney indicted the Democratic Chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee for fraud.
Partisan Politics?
AttorneyGate has not yet run its course.
