Seriously, guys?
Fine, if Fox wants to go there, then let's go there, because here are a few other things Bush told us about Iraq:
- "We cannot wait for the final proof—the smoking gun—that could come in the form of a mushroom cloud." (link)
- "Our mission is clear, to disarm Iraq of weapons of mass destruction, to end Saddam Hussein's support for terrorism, and to free the Iraqi people." (link)
- "My fellow Americans, major combat operations in Iraq have ended. In the battle of Iraq, the United States and our allies have prevailed." (link)
- "We found the weapons of mass destruction." (link)
- "Those weapons of mass destruction have got to be somewhere. [Visual: Photo of Bush looking under Oval Office desk.] Nope, no weapons over there ... maybe under here?" (link)
So yeah, Fox. Remind us that our involvement in Iraq is Bush's fault all you want. But don't blame the mess on one of the few elected officials who got it right from the start.
