"When I made the decision to remove Saddam from power..."
"... Congress approved it with strong bipartisan support."

Then he says he doesn't want to rewrite the history of how the war began!!!

The IWR came first; his "decision to remove Saddam from power" came afterward. I'm not defending or attacking those who signed the IWR, but Chimpy's "decision" followed it. What an asshat.

1. He just said it again...
Saying politicans are "throwing out false charges."

Says it undermines troops.

Says they voted to "Send them to War" and to "remove Saddam."

This is now a speech that's an attack on DEMOCRATS.

I hate this monkey.

5. Talk about divisive!!!
We can't even have a speech for veterans that isn't riddled with lies and attacks on Democrats.

13. That should be our talking point
"Instead of honoring our veterans, the President used today to make a partisan attack."

7. I'm kind of confused
Didn't he used to claim that he got the IWR but hadn't decided yet to invade? IOW, 1) IWR 2) decision to invade 3) invasion. We all know he planned to invade Iraq before he was even appointed by the SC.

Seems to me, he got in a spot of trouble lately when it became clear he always meant to invade, even when he was saying he hadn't made up his mind. I'm confused. Nothing new there.

18. Exactly
This is an admission that he lied to the American people.

Doesn't this CONFIRM the contents of the DSM?

17. Hey, numb nuts, why don't we have an independent investigation
of how we got into this nightmare? You, Cheney, Powell, Rice, etc. can swear an oath on your precious Bible and answer the questions in public. You and your crooked administration can bring in all your 'secret' documents that proved so well that there were thousands of tons of WMDs in Iraq.
