[Vision2020] Bush flip-flops on Iraq

Donovan et. al.

Thanks for this Moore piece.

How anyone can track these statements by members of the Bush administration 
and buy hook line and sinker the current spin offered to justify the Bush 
approach on Iraq is cause for wonder.  Even if someone supports US nation building 
in Iraq, the evidence should compel an admission that Bush sometimes says 
whatever at the moment seems the best spin, and that this image of Bush as an 
unwavering thinker and leader is hogwash!  The statements by Powell and Rice 
downplaying Saddam's threat during 2001 are revealing.  Where was the panic over 
WMDs by the Bush administration in Iraq before 9/11?  There was no panic because 
they knew there weren't any WMDs!

Bush was given instructions from the ideologues in his administration to push 
the WMD and Al Quada threat in Iraq to justify waging war on Iraq.
