Was there any question, even in 2002, of what they were doing?  Maybe it was because I was a TYT listener, but it was abundantly clear that their theory was exactly as they had outlined in in PNAC.  The neocon theory was to start toppling local regimes in an attempt to "westernize" the Middle East.  They had no idea that our military is completely incapable of such an operation.  I don't know how many people were buying this WMD nonsense, even back then.  That was just a public relations campaign to try to sway stupid people who weren't paying attention.  The Neocons operate on the same principles as a Magician--misdirection.&nbs p;

No the American people apparently agreed this was sensible foreign policy, to invade countries that we don't particularly like, all because we were victims of a terrorist attack.  Some people screamed that this is a stupid idea, like Cenk and Ben. 

I think over the past 5 years we have completely lost sight of what the real issue is.  We made a foriegn policy decision about how we are going to work as a country.  WMD had nothing to do with it.   All this gotcha stuff and talk about how they lied us into war is nonsense.  It was clear as day what they were doing from the get go.  I can't figure out why nobody, not even the turks (or Huffpo) talks about this.  All we seem to care about is he said she said nonsense. 

Thank God Obama won this primary.  We have a voice of reason and real change in foreign policy in the future.
