(1,917 posts)35. I wrote to Ike Skelton in 2003...
I was furious that the US was planning an invasion into a sovereign nation that had done nothing to us.
The evidence was clear that they had nothing to do with 9-11. * was heard and reported on several times offering different reasons for invading Iraq. None of them a just cause for what he did.
I got a canned response from the late congressman offering the same lame explanation coming from the BFEE.
I was on Smirking Chimp at the time, since before 9-11. It was obvious that this had been planned for a long time and led me to the idea of MIHOP. Cheney was too obvious as was Bolton, Rice and the house servant Powell.
Powell's presentation at the UN was sad and transparent. Impeachment proceedings should have started immediately.
