Since I'm tired of repeating myself over the years and the libs on here keep wanting to make the comparison of Obama, Bush and Iraq. Let's end this right here. This article spells out why Bush invaded Iraq, the bi-partisan support and 70% approval by the American people to go in. I know whats going to happen here. I'm going get every propaganda link telling us "the real reason" ::) we invaded Iraq

ALL of which are terrible reasons, CT or those you listed in the article.
Completely unnecessary and unwarranted at the time resulting in 4000+ US deaths, Ten of thousands maimed and wounded for life, 50k-300k dead Iraqis, destabilized country, 100's of billions in costs
"Nation building" my ass ::) Tell that to the mothers who lost sons there........Its ok Miss, the dems voted for it too!

This. Utter utter bullshit but as long as it's 'bipartisan' all is well. The war is a complete disaster started by an idiotic psychotic warmonger that I long suspect are functionality illiterate. With emotions running high after 9/11 the Democrats hardly had a choice. Yet the halfwits on the 'right' can never fathom that. Party of Stupid. I suppose it's called that for a reason.

Saddam pissed someone off, and he had oil............

Yeah its cited often as a talking point that the dems voted for it too. Usually by those who thrive in a polarizing existence. It never mattered. Wrong is wrong.

allow me to pay devils advocate to all of you. name one war that you believe the US entered into for the right reasons.

Other points related to your question but which reasons can be argued either way:
Korea: Stopping the spread of communism spurred by an invasion of SK and an attack on American forces
Gulf war 1: Stop Saddam just who invaded Kuwait and threatened Saudi Arabia
Afghanistan: Justifiable response to remove organized terrorist threat support by Afghan government in wake of 9/11

These, although "had" is key here.
ISIS is targeting refineries now, and it's just a matter of time before the ripples reach the rest of the world.

Bush gave multiple reasons for invading Iraq, all of which had very little merit. The Democrats who supported the war are just as disgusting as their Republican counterparts. And the average citizens who supported the war were fools.

Sometimes its just fun to shoot people in the face.

....or in the spirit of the 4th and its true meaning, I like this one

yes - there were probably a dozen reasons we invaded. Simpleton dems say "oil!" and simpleton repubs say "WMD!"
anyone with half a brain knows some of the other reasons. But hey, it feels sooooo good to scream "It's all about oil!" and "you shitbird libs wanted this war" and "it was about spreading democracy, nothing more!" so it's cool if people want to do that. Helps to identify those under 85 IQ.

HAHAHAHA another thread Coach starts and abandons, unless he comes back to say "You just don't get it".

Once again a Birther redefining "low info voter"
Let's just keep hating the other end. :)

Those are all as morally ambiguous as Iraq , the real reasons for entering and the lies / false flags used to get the public on board for some are just as bad.

Saddam had the same power to destroy and reshape the planet as Hitler did?

"Bad Hitler" wasn't why America went to war , here's a good basic synopsis
http://www.ihr.org/news/weber_ww2_may08.html
The way Pearl Harbor was allowed to happen to win public support is very similar to 9/11, and the reasons for bombing the Japanese are similar to how "shock and awe" was supposed to intimidate the other Bad People in the ME

Oh, I'm sorry. Did I take up more real estate in that open bit of land called your head? Just because I started a thread before I went to work (that's the place were ambitious people go to get a head in life to make some money....yes, money is important) doesn't mean I abandoned it, junior. Like the many stories you and left tend to make up. I rarely do that. Now, go to your room and let the big boys play...little man!

It's a fact

Poor baby. You showed up just to respond to this? Now run along and ignore the thread like you usually do when your dumb ass gets hand to you. Which is... every thread you start like this.
Like I say.... when you are dead you don't know it. Other people know it and have to suffer through it. Same as when you are stupid. Thank you for proving it once again.

Did you read the article?

It's a fact
Just like it's a fact that scientific evidence exists that prayers work? Despite you claiming this is a fact, you can't seem to find any links to evidence that support it.
Keeping trying midget.
You = midget = fact.

Obviously, otherwise we couldn't have predicted almost everything Obama was going to do in 2008 when he was campaigning that the left were calling bullshit on. Example, during a campaign stop he was asked if he was a socialist, he said no. As it turns out he's not only a socialist but borderline communist and waaaaay worse than what anyone expected.....yes, I still maintain that fucker is as Illegal as the 300,000 crossing the boarders and is WITHOUT A DOUBT a fraud.

Whether you think it was right or wrong is pretty much irrelevant. The question was WHY? You have everyone left on here saying it was Bush's "Illegal" war, bla bla bla when, again, the was Bush went through the right channels to get approval from both sides and the American people. Did you bother to read the article?
-
You dumb SOB, the only one in the world disputing this fact is you.
Yet for something that is a fact, you can't find a single link to support this claim with evidence.
Where's the evidence? Surely you can find it if it is accepted so widely?
"You just don't get it do you?"
No wonder you are considered the dumbest bitch on this board. You worked hard for this level of stupidity didn't you?

You really are stupid aren't you? I don't mean as in "dumb". I mean "STUPID".

You obviously can not read and understand simple questions either. It really is true that midgets are the stupidest people on Earth.

What's the matter? Can't support your own dumb ass claims?
Or just making sure you have title of Stupidest Person On Getbig locked down?

Do you even know what socialism is or are you just using words that Sean, Rush and Bill spoon-fed you? Come on Joe. You're a grown man. Use your brain just once. Yes, Obama is liberal and far left of that mythical "center". But that doesn't translate to socialist.
And you're still going on about the birther thing? Sheesh.
-
You dumb SOB, the only one in the world disputing this fact is you.
Plenty of people dispute the claim that "prayer works". But that's largely irrelevant. What matters is this:
Has any properly designed and executed scientific study demonstrated statistically significant results in favor of prayer? Every such research I've seen is either poorly designed, badly implemented or littered with logical fallacies.
P.S.: I know you have a penchant to call others dumb, but really Joe when you live inside a glass house you would be well-advised to not throw stones.

You think he is going to reply and address this? After being confronted with his bullshit claim over a dozen times and only running away?
HAHAHA
Coach = dumbest person on Getbig as noted by the majority
-
Still no answer to your bullshit claim? Let's be honest....when God made you this stupid was that His Plan or is he just testing you?
-
I have read somewere that the invasion was due to Saddam wanting to start selling oil in euros and not in american dollars.
-
Well we know it wasn't to take control of and/or profit from Iraq's oil. I started a thread about this years ago. Will bump it.

No answer after 5 days????
Obviously it was Gods Plan for you to be this stupid.
