Bush chose not to go after killer of American hostages
Abu alZarqawi, who killed David Berg, was allowed by Bush to escape. Three plans to take out his camp prior to the war were rejected by the White House, because the WH was using his presence in Kurdish Controlled Iraq as proof of a terror prescence "in Iraq."

Bush let the terrorists go. Bush decided he would rather have an invasion than terrorists captured or killed. This is his decision, his strategy, his choice, his preferred result. How you like it so far?

2. 1,000 Americans dead... because Bush wanted war
From the article:

"Military officials insist their case for attacking Zarqawi’s operation was airtight, but the administration feared destroying the terrorist camp in Iraq could undercut its case for war against Saddam."


This is beyond words. :scared:

3. And the Repugs criticized CLINTON?
If this would have been Clinton, he'd have been hanged, pure and simple.
