A woman President

I am going out on a limb here with a statement with which many will not agree. I personally don't think Bush lied to the American people. Just think about it for a minute. If he knew beforehand that there were no WMD how long did he think he could keep up the charade? Wouldn't he have realized that the minute we invaded them the truth would come to light and he'd look like a fool or, worse yet, a liar. Come on, I don't know anyone who would put themselves in that position. I believe he was given inaccurate information and acted upon it. Of course then the blame for that can be leveled at him for choosing those people in the first place. His fault, in my opinion, was having no exit strategy. I hope that the next president can bring this to a close (hopefully before then). I just don't see Hillary being that president.

I agree with you Pam, you are so very right.
