The flimsy excuse of WMD was enough to get us into Iraq, where all Bushie's buddies wormed their companies in with rebuilding and supply contracts that have generated billions/trillions of dollars for them. Who cares whether we win or lose in Iraq? We've spent all that money either way, and we'll never get it back. The fear he generated kept him in office another four years, giving him a chance to continue funneling money around. A war makes a great money laudering operation, because it's sure not getting where it's supposed to go. There's still troops over in both countries who are scavenging through scrap yards for stuff to make armor with.


You don't have to be a military genius to win a battle you don't give a flying damn about. You just have to be sociopathic enough to start it in the first place.
