Feeding congress cherry picked intel from bad sources didn't exactly help. In the post 9/11 world, being told (being lied to) that Iraq harbored AQ and was just moments away from possessing a nuclear device would convince the most ardent peacenik that invasion was a good option.

@Cigar - here's my proof, campaign strategy.
It will work too, because people want to believe her. Voters are gullible like that.
Why am I trying to explain this to you....
my junk is ugly
I don't nessarly like Hillary for President and I wish The Domocratic Party had more choices. But if I had a choice between another Bush, or a lying Walker or a Moron like Paul ... a Clinton Wins hands down.
I'm not happy with the choice, but it's the choices I have. But remember, the real Campagning hasn't started, so maybe Hillary will stumble coming out of the Gates.
I am still wondering if Hillary will run. I don't see why she has not declared her candidacy yet...unless there was some real doubt. She is leading in all the polls but that could be due to no one else daring to announce. Anyone else who runs would want her support so they would wait until she makes it clear what her intentions are.
Imo: the rest of the repubs can just quit and start campaigning for Jeb. He wants the nomination, he will get it. The Bush family has a political organization that equals if not surpasses anything the Kennedy family had.
Yep. & Pakistan (& India) have nukes, & delivery systems. Pakistan is a shambles, politically, economically & militarily. The junta & ISI there are forever gearing up to lose their next war with India (See E. Pakistan). If the Pakistani government & military ever teeter out of control, or even give the appearance of doing so - it will become a race there. US, India, China (?) & Israeli forces will attempt to either seize & take the warheads (for their contents, & to study the design, etc.) or destroy them in place.
Casualties & economic loss - depending on the prevailing winds - could be immense. & of course the terrain & watersheds will be unusable for a long time, depending on whether there are actual nuclear detonations, squibs, or meltdowns. A v. ugly scenario, no matter how it actually turns out.
