Again, a misdirection of the debate


"or at best a blithering idiot who interpreted information in a way NO REASONABLE PERSON could have."


But 'reasonable person' is not the case. Reasonable people can think all sorts of things that are false. You don't go to war, in a pre-emptive strike killing 10-15,000 folks, off of 'Sure, sounds reasonable'. You go to war, in a pre-emptive strike, because you have sure and convincing evidence.

To make the bar "it is reasonable to believe that Saddam has WMD and is collaborating with terrorists" is to shift the debate, again, to a situation where your case can win without effort.

I ain't biting. Go fish.
