So it wasn't
him that lied about Iraq intel...he just passed on a message.
Am I out to lunch on that point?
I support most of the president's policies, so I think that he is a good leader, spokesman, etc. He seems to me to be a good person. I have very little knowledge of his academic background, but I elect a person to run the country, not opine on medieval French literature.
As to your comment about Iraq, the president was entirely correct to invade based on the totality of the information and history at our disposal at that time regarding Iraqi WMD. And in similar circumstances in the future, he should invade the next country in question.
