"MISSION CREEP IN IRAQ" - A HUGE LIE OF THE LEFT ON THE IRAQ WAR

One of the HUGE current lies the Left is spreading about the war in Iraq, is that the mission has changed since they authorized war - AS IF they only authorized war against Saddam because he had WMD, WMD which are not there. They claim that supporting the Iraqi people's efforts to establish a democratic government is "mission creep."

Biden - the freakin' CHAIR of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee said this:
"We gave the president that power to destroy Iraq's weapons of mass destruction and, if necessary, to depose Saddam Hussein," Biden said of the 2002 resolution in a speech last week before the Brookings Institution. "The WMD was not there. Saddam Hussein is no longer there. The 2002 authorization is no longer relevant to the situation in Iraq."
This is one of the rationalizations they give for "needing" to REVOKE that authorization and replace it with a new, MUCH NARROWER one.

This is simply bullsh*t. Purely and simply TOTAL bullsh*t. And since the Leftie Dem doves know is BS, it is really nothing else but a freakin' LIE.

Biden and the rest of the DEFEAT-O-CRATS know this and are either disingenuous propagandists and liars, or they are the stupidest assholes ever to serve in the Congress. I think they are smart liars.
Okay: they're assholes too! HERE'S PROOF; HERE'S A QUOTE FROM THAT AUTHORIZATION; (first choose "TEXT OF LEGISLATION", then choose #5 for the version passed by both houses of Congress):
Whereas the Iraq Liberation Act of 1998 (Public Law 105-338) expressed the sense of Congress that it should be the policy of the United States to support efforts to remove from power the current Iraqi regime and promote the emergence of a democratic government to replace that regime;
That's the LAW, the actual AUMF in freakin' BLACK AND WHITE. There is no "mission creep." Democratizing Iraq was ALWAYS part of the authorization. REPEAT: there is NO "mission creep." None. Zero. Bupkus. Zilch. There is lying by the Leftist Dems. Lying that helps the enemy. Traitorous lying. The Dems: lying traitorous scum. AND THIS ASPECT OF THE CURRENT MISSION WAS ORIGINALLY PASSED AND SIGNED INTO LAW AND MADE OFFICIAL US FOREIGN POLICY IN1998 - BY BILL CLINTON! Sheesh.

And, it was not a post-bellum rationalization by Bush, either. Bush spoke of it in his September 13, 2002 speech before the UNGA - 6 freakin' months before the war! Here's an excerpt:
... If the Iraqi regime wishes peace, it will immediately end all illicit trade outside the oil-for-food program. It will accept UN administration of funds from that program to ensure that the money is used fairly and promptly for the benefit of the Iraqi people.

If all these steps are taken, it will signal a new openness and accountability in Iraq and it could open the prospect of the United Nations helping to build a government that represents all Iraqis, a government based on respect for human rights, economic liberty and internationally supervised elections.

The United States has no quarrel with the Iraqi people. They've suffered too long in silent captivity. Liberty for the Iraqi people is a great moral cause and a great strategic goal.
REPEAT: THERE IS NOT NOW - NOR HAS THERE EVER BEEN - "MISSION CREEP."

Complete round up of the lying Dems HERE.

TRUTH HERE.

If you want to pretend that our unending establishment of American forces in Iraq, and our near total control over all aspects of their government, is the same thing as "promoting the emergence of a democratic government," boy, I can't wait to hear you define "habeus corpus"!

Admit it, you war-mongering Rippups do not have the faintest idea on how to establish, promote or run a Democratic country. That is why you are being voted out of office in droves.
