Yeah Joe has a pretty rough political pass, hopefully he has changed. Now that he is safely installed as the president I hope we don't just kiss his ass for four years because he's not Trump.

So it's probably fair to say that your understanding of the iraq war is completely filtered through retrospect?

I'm not saying the war was a good thing, but equally shallow are retrospective takes pretending like the geopolitical situation was simple.

Invade a country on the other side of the world that didn't attack us and create a power vacuum for extremists to take over and then torture people or don't invade a country on the other side of the world and create a power vacuum for extremists to take over and then torture people

Very tough choice.

Oh yeah I'm sure him being a little older and witnessing everyone biting people's heads off they second they mentioned anything that wasn't 100% pro Iraq War would give him a much better understanding. So much nuance and unique perspective he could have took into account

Uhh, it was pretty simple. Bush and his team just straight up lied to us. There were mass protests against the war even then. I was in D.C. and got ushered away by a cop from the reflecting pool when the guy drove his tractor into it. How old are you, talking this nonsense, dude?

I tagged him as "Ben Carson of CE" over a year ago and it just continues to fit like a glove lol. Incredibly jarring to see someone so well spoken in their area of expertise only to flop around like a fish out of water when discussing any other subject.

Lmao, k.

I'm sure you all knew at the time of the vote that the war in iraq wasn't necessary.

Come off it. I have always been against the war, but I'm not gonna sit back and say that there were no considerations to be made given Saddam's rule. Dude was a fucking war criminal.

So are a bunch of American presidents/military, and a number of world leaders. Guess it would make sense if Biden and Congress declared World War 3, or if a country declared war on us.

Around the same order of citizens that Saddam disappeared, iirc. But that probably depends on exactly how you're counting.

Again, not saying the iraq war was a good thing. Just saying that sitting here 20 years later pontificating about how when you examine all the facts that it ended up being bad is a pretty far fucking cry from a congressional decision before all these things happened.
