They often quote Democrats from the 90's claiming Saddam was a danger.

Democrats were trying to keep the sanctions in place at the UN because Saddam had petitioned to have them lifted so he could rebuild his country. He was fully cooperating with the inspectors. Iraq had lost a lot of their youth in the Iran/Iraq war and Saddam found himself the president of a country full of old people, women and children when we invaded.

If you tell a Right Winger America made a mistake they get pissed because they consider this to be God's country so by telling them we invaded a country for no good reason they feel you are claiming God made a mistake.

Funny how these same people think all we do is God's Will but Washington DC and the Federal Government is right out of Satan's ass.

Like I said before: Isn't it funny that they deny having mental problems?
