I totally agree with you. Iraq was a 'holding port' for terrorists.
I also believe that the White House and Congress went on the information they had at that time. Sure, people can look back now and say the information was wrong, yada, yada, yada. But they were going on information given AT THAT TIME. As the old saying goes "Hindsight is always 20/20."
There is no reason for impeachment. As soon as President Bush took on the job as president, both his administrations have been plagued with assaults from all sides. I truly believe that he and his administration has saved the United States from further 9/11's.
There was news coverage on our local news a few weeks ago from someone who lived in Iraq (or Afghanistan) and now lives in our area and our local reporter interviewed him. He and his family had really gone thru a lot. He said he was thankful for the invasion by the United States and our allies. He also stated that the terrorists were hoping that Obama is elected our next president. If I can find the interview, I'll post it.
