When the Neo-con(artists) say, "Republicans and Democrats in Congress...
...saw the intelligence and believed Saddam Hussein had WMD"

Counter with this truth, "They only saw the evidence Bush gave them which was the cooked evidence. They were never allowed to see the evidence that showed Saddam didn't have WMD."

2. I've been down that road.
While what you say is true, they also have quotations from Democrats in the late 1990's saying the same thing. The evidence they saw then was presented by the Clinton Administration.

This is a "I voted for it, then voted against it" argument for us--it's a loser.

Better to say that the Democrats wanted to deal with the potential threat by letting the weapons inspectors do their job. If they found the weapons we would then deal with Hussein. The neo-fascists like Bush wanted a war, they didn't care about weapons inspectors or anything else.

3. I wish Kerry would have said
that before the election. It seemed clear to me. They believed Bush's lies. Oh well. There are new fights, and we are fighting and getting results.

He and the neoCONs had a hidden agenda and ulterior motives they intentionally concealed from everyone beginning on the first day they took power.
