The world demonstrated against invasion.  Blix said over and over there were no WMD.  The Nigerian yellowcake, the fuel rods, the Downing Street memo, the 12 missing words, and on and on.  If we went to war based on conventional wisdom and misinformation, then we are idiots beyond belief.  I'd rather think Bush lied.  Are we so absolutely idiotic Lawrence, that we would start a war on conventional wisdom, especially when it was event to the world, including to nobodies like me, that it was all fabricated.  Fabricated is a fancy way of spelling lie.  Our choice as Americans: our president lied, or we're idiots.  Which one is it, Lawrence?

Irony valid only for those not knowing the meaning of the word “lie.”

Sounds right.  Obsess over cheating on one's wife but applaud excuses for invading a country and then botching it.  Nothing wrong with this picture.
