Moral Leadership

We were told it was necessary to invade Iraq because they had WMDs (including nuclear weapons) and that Iraq posed an imminent threat to the US and it's allies. That was a lie. Bush has manufactured scores of excuses to justify a war that was based on bad intelligence at best and outright lies at worst. Moral leadership (something Dubya knows nothing about) should consist of the truth and tough choices based on facts backed up by evidence. It is not moral to lie to the American people, send them to war and then change the reason we went in the first place.
