And if you are referring to George W.'s statements about WMD's, they were based upon CIA and NSA reports that were seen by Democratic leaders as well, and that the UN also believed to be credible.

You seek escape from pain. We seek the achievement of happiness. You exist for the sake of avoiding punishment. We exist for the sake of earning rewards. Threats will not make us function; fear is not our incentive. It is not death that we wish to avoid, but life that we wish to live. - John Galt
