The sad truth is they were scared of being called weak on terror like their commiecrat allies Ted Kennedy and Russ Feingold. And since America is a country where it is considered weak to oppose any war, no matter how unjustified or ill-conceived, they threw their consciences under the bus for the sake of political ambition.

(They were also sadistic bastards who brutalized the people they had illegally taken over, but that had been going on for years and we never cared before.) It was logical to argue that going to war against the Taliban-controlled Afghanistan would help us take out Al Qaeda. The war in Iraq made Cheney get wood. There was no other reason for us to be there other than it was "the one that got away" in Gulf War 1. Sure, Saddam was a sadistic bastard who brutalized the people he had taken over, but that had been going on for years and we never cared before.

After the success of Vietnam and our illegal bombing of Cambodia, which helped to destablize the Cambodian government and usher in the Khmer Rouge, we should have then gone to war with the fragile constitutional monarchy in Phnom Penh because they <i>allowed the Khmer Rouge to exist</i>. That the fragile government had little choice, especially since we illegally bombed the hell out of their people, hardly matters. It's no more insane than killing Lebanese civilians because Hezbollah exists in their country. Brad, it’s obvious.
