Bush has always maintained that there were several reasons for invading
Iraq. However, as Wolfowitz said in an interview soon after the war, "WMD
was the one issue we could all (Dems and Republicans) agree upon".

BS! Wolfowitz never mentioned Democrats in his quote. He stated WMD was
used for "bureaucratic reasons". Presumably, because there was some
disputing the other reasons between the State Department (Powell) and the
Defense Department (Rumsfeld). Among the other reasons, were capitulating
to Al Qaeda's demands to remove American troops from Saudi Arabia.

Bush stated the Iraqi threat in his Cincinnati speech of 10/7/02. It
doesn't hold up very well either.

Apparently, the Dems quit agreeing once they saw a political angle to
exploit.

Disingenuous.
