Wow. Thats rich. Lessee:
•
Nobody would have thought that UBL would fly planes into buildings.
•
There were WMD in Iraq.
•
There Were Al Qaeda in Iraq.
•
Iraq was an immediate threat to the US, requiring re-emptive attack.
•
We could habdle Tora Bora and trap UBL with help from the Pakistanis and the Allied tribal leaders.
•
We could still handle Afghanistan and Invade Iraq at the same time.
•
There would be flowers thrown at our feet.
•
It would take only a small fraction of our forces to Secure Iraq.
•
We wouldn't need to be there long, we would be down to 5000 soliers within a couple of years.
•
The Sunnis and the Shia would not descend into genocidal civil war.
•
Iraqi reconstruction would pay for itself.
•
The Levees would Hold in NOLA
•
Nobody expected the sort of disaster that would ensue in NOLA (and its not their fault anyway- FEMA isn't really a Federal Emergency Management Agency. C'mon!).
•
Global Warming science is incomplete and partial. Its probably a myth anyway.
•
If its not a myth, and we are wrong, then its all termite farts and Volcanes. If we're wrong about that, we'll say something else.
•
We can piss on our allies, we don't need them
•
We can handle Iran and N. Korea while we are in two inteminable wars, without the help of our allies.
•
Putin (who is now outright slaughtering his critics) is a good man. Bush looked into his soul.
•
Iraq is seeking yellowcake uranium from sources in Africa.
•
There was a conference, a regular convention of terrorists and Iraqi army officials in the Czech republic.
•
There was a 'poisons training camp' at Salman Pak, where the Iraq Reupublcian Guard practiced storming planes and bewing Anthrax.
•
We know where the WMD, they are to the north and south of Tikiriti.
•
Sadam had tonnes of Anthrax.
•
Saddam was within 6 months of a nuclear weapon.
•
Shinseki was a fool, delusional, to state that the occupation would require hundreds of thousands of troops.
