How can Democrats blame the war entirely on Bush?

Question

Hillary voted for it too, among some other high-profile Democrats. I have heard some people say fear of Bush caused the Democrats to vote so, and if this is what people really think I have two questions: one, what did Democrats think Bush was going to do to them if they didn't vote his way, and two, if he's as stupid as some of these same people claim, how could he orchestrate ANY reprisals for failing to vote his way? You can't have it both ways.

Answer 1

faulty intelligence my friends.

wasnt it bushes job to atleast double check the sources?

Answer 2

It's easy......I'll show you....."The war is entirely Bush's fault".......see how easy that was?.......now anyone with a brain knows it wasn't ENTIRELY his fault.......his advisors, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, Rice, the CIA, Tenet, and both houses of congress are equally to blame.

Answer 3

Your question should be:  How can Democrats blame everything entirely on Bush?  They do and more.  It's pathetic.

Answer 4

Bush is a good president. How can people blame him. The reason we have war is to be a free country. Don't people know that anymore. Bush is a good president and will go down in history with a good reputation because in years to come people will think he is good because he really helped.

Answer 5

The Bush Administration made the case for this War and had bogus evidence to try to sell it.  HAd it not been for the efforts of the Bush Crowd, no one would ever have wanted to go into Iraq.

Answer 6

Congress did vote for the war but it was because they had faulty intelligence. Bush wanted this war and was going to get it one way or the other. He's a liar and the entire truth is bound to come out once he's out of office.

Answer 7

No one blames the war entirely on Bush.  

He is the figure head of the country right now so he will get blamed for many things that aren't personally all his fault.  That's what you get for being president.  

Answer 8

every one believed the wmd's were there.

the Clinton's,the brits,the germans, CIA,FBI

and over 60  senators voted for the war.

plus Saddam 's generals thought they  had them.

Answer 9

Fish rots from the head down.

The President of the United States, makes claims before Congress, based on his particular knowledge, which he can't share because its classified, and he makes these claims to a Congress still reeling from a huge attack on our shores, and he implies over and over again that anyone not in favor of going in is in bed with the enemy, and yeah, Democrats and Republican jump in the boat and give the President what he wants.

Who would ever think that a sitting President, of any party, would make up stuff to get us into war?

Who?

Answer 10

Because, he is the Commander in Chief.  The buck stops with him.
