First off, I don't think you're wrong.... It's your opinion and you're entitled to it. I don't think I'm wrong, it's my opinion.

I feel that if Gore had been President, he wouldn't have taken any action. I feel that he would basically have invited terrorists to attack our country. This is all based on my own feelings. Obviously there's no telling how things would have worked out had he been President.

I agree that we should have kept more focus on getting the terrorists in Afganistan. But, just because the press wasn't covering it like they were covering Iraq doesn't mean that we weren't still there trying to root them out.

I think that WMD's were a legitimate reason for going to Iraq. They would pose a serious and immediate threat to us. Ok, I know that we haven't found any there.... I don't necessarily think that means that they're not there though. If Saddam had destroyed them, why didn't he offer proof? We gave him more than enough chances. If he wanted to, he could bury his whole program out in the desert and we would never find it unless someone took us to them. I don't know that I'll ever be convinced that they were or weren't there.... I still believe that we had other reasons for going there anyway....

I don't have any proof to offer as these are my own opinions based on what I've seen and the experience that I have with how some things work.
