Did anyone see this 60 minutes episode? I didn't. It seems a new report out says that Bush was right to fear Saddam Hussein 's intentions when we went into Iraq! He fully intended to create chemical, biological, and even nuclear weapons and we stopped him before he could! Why isn't this just being blasted in the news?

It isn't being blasted all over the news because the liberal press does not want this information known.
It would mean that they were wrong and Bush was right, and that all of the stories that were ran against the war and Bush were lies.
It would also do incredible damage to the liberals, for it would show that when it comes to our security and foreign policy that they don't have a clue as to what they are doing.
It would also show them up for the traitors that they are, because they have been opposing this war at every turn, and actively working against the Commander In Chief during a time of war, effectively giving aid and comfort to the enemy.
Those are the acts of traitors, and that is what the democrats and everyone who opposed this war is guilty of.
These people don't want their crimes and incompetence known, so that is why it is not being reported.
This wold be the same press that has been tearing down and criticizing Bush and his supporters ever since he took office with impunity... and yet when a report is made that is unfavorable to the Clinton's and their "untouchable" daughter then people get suspended or otherwise reprimanded and/or punished.... yet they say that there is no liberal bias in the press.
Those of us who took the time to do the research and educate ourselves knew the truth about Iraq along with how we got there including the responsibility that both Clintons and Congress shared along with Bush.
Everyone else just listened to the talking heads and followed their lead like the sheep that they are.
Those would be the ones who continually call for impeachment proceedings against Bush and Cheney, happily wallowing in their ignorance that no impeachable offenses were committed by either one.
There was also the little matter of the Iraq Liberation Act of 1998 signed by BJ Clinton for the purpose of removing Saddam from his position in order to remove the threat of WMD's.
So not only did Bush think they were there, so did BJ Clinton.
We also now know that Bush was right about the terrorists operating in Iraq... so I guess it is a good thing that the incompetent liberals didn't get their way about forcing a troop withdrawal from Iraq as well.
It seems that when it comes to foreign policy and national security, the demonrats just don't know what they are doing, and about the only thing they do well is investigate things that they have no business in and playing political games and raising taxes for no good reason.
So when are they going to get around to actually doing the job they were elected to do... such as taking care of the business of actually doing their jobs instead of actively working against the president and playing games with our security and future?

Wow...got you going, didn't I? LOL. Well said! I see we agree on a lot of things. It was great to see an article supporting Bush's decisions. I believed them all along.

Because the news is controlled by liberals and everyone seems to be afraid to backup Bush ...for fear it will hurt their ratings.
Actually, this was printed in some smaller news sites several months ago and it took 60 minutes this long to post it.
I think I actually posted something on it...I will see if I can find it.

This is my feeling on the subject as well. Who knows what to believe anymore anyway?
