Just today:
That's because the presidents before didn't have money owed to THEM which they wanted back from Saddam for helping to finance his war against Iran which he lost anyway.
I'm not even going to think about any assistance from Cheney since he's openly admit that he doesn't care about the country's opinion at all

I really like this one:
The US NEEDS this war in order to survive. For example, for every calorie of food we produce, it takes 10 calories of oil to make. This ratio is so utterly astounding that the sheer pragmatic sense of making war for oil is obvious.
* We never should have been there in the first place.
* We are doing no good whatsoever.
* We are destroying the US military according to the Pentagon's own reports.
* We are bleeding our grandchildren white.
* We have sacrificed the rule of Law, separation of powers, the independence of the Judiciary and every other legal and democratic tradition for this mess.
* We have become an international pariah.
* We have turned war profiteering from a crime to stated government policy.
* We have replaced soldiers, Marines, airmen and Intelligence officers with black-backed thugs who are accountable to no system of justice or legal authority except their paycheck.
* We have done Al Qaeda's recruiting for the next hundred years.
* We have done more to strengthen I-wanna-jihad's position in Iran than his supporters ever could.
* We are paying a terrible price in homelessness, PTSD, lost limbs and wrecked brains.
* We have turned into a nation which tortures and abuses civilians for no reason whatsoever.
What really nutty things have you seen, aside from the de riguer idiocy of daily Kos, huff po, DU?
