TomPaine.com - Bush Needs a Twelve-Step Program
"The central issue at hand is the president's credibility. After two years of spin, dissembling and outright lies about Iraq's great and gathering arsenal of nuclear, chemical and biological weapons and Saddam Hussein's ties to Al Qaeda, the Bush crowd abruptly changed their rationale for going to war there. No longer had we risked lives and treasure to displace an imminent threat to national security. Instead, it ends up, we had cast Saddam Hussein into the dustbin of history in service of a breathtaking mission to spread democracy in the Middle East and beyond. This was supposed to have collateral security benefits, as the flowering of democracy eventually undermined support for Al Qaeda and other global terror groups, at some indeterminate date in the future."
