If "We don't want the smoking gun to be a mushroom cloud" isn't an attempt to influence people, then I don't know what is.

3. Oh, they were just a prayer group
They met weekly to pray for the President's health and physical fitness.

4. No fair! You are trying to use reason and logic in this argument.
They will always call foul in that situation (right after they call you a traitor).

5. It's time for the Democrats to move on.
The problem is we keep on discussing whether Bush led the country into war based on lies with people that will never ever admit it.

Since we now know the rational for the war was all a pack of lies it's time at last to go after the motives that compelled this administration to start this war. While we are not mind readers we can use our eyes and plain old common sense reasoning.
Who has benefited the most since the war began? Oil Companies, the Carlyle Group, Halliburton and the Vice President, that's who.

It's time for the Democrats to quit dancing around the issue and start using the "T" word, T R E A S O N! Stop asking the question "Were we mislead into war?" and start asking "Did Bush/Cheney and associates commit treason by starting a war for profit?"
