Downing Street Memo
By Randy Johnson

Maybe you don't get the point! Bush lied when he took us to war. He does not have the right to falsify information to justify anything! This is just one case of his, "I will do what I want because I am a Bush and nothing else matters." attitude.

The Iraqi war was the wrong decision - because he misled us, he denied legitimate diplomats the ability to appropriately deal with the situation. Do not give me this crap that this war was justified! Not one death is justified - especially given the inept execution and lack of planning.

War is not ours to arbitrarily engage in - our hypocrisy in this matter has diminished America across the world.
