Of course it was, I never denied it, I said it was debatable because I support it, or rather would have if I was old enough at the time lol.

It is a proven fact that the Bush admin fudged the intelligence and pressured analysts to justify the invasion of Iraq... you can choose not to believe it if you want but history will tell a fairly plain truth of it
I never argued this, although we both go back and forth telling each other that your truth is just propaganda. However, the Democrats supported it. And don't tell me it was based on faulty evidence. They knew what he knew. [quote]

the subprime crisis is something completely different... without derivatives and Credit Default Swaps there would have been only a crash of the real estate bubble.... which wasn't enough to bring down all of the banks.
At best, that's debatable and at worse, completely false. We can play this game of "well if he didn't do this, the other guy would have done this." Bill Clinton and Alan Greenspan were fully responsible for the subprime mortgage crisis. The financial crisis I will blame on the FED as well as American consumers who started living beyond their means. I think at this point we should agree both parties were at fault, otherwise we won't get anywhere. I still haven't found out why you were a liberal, just why you're NOT something else.
