You are leaving out the conservatives that are whining about it. Please to not cherry-pick the whiners. I want to be included.
I think what is being complained about is instead of spending $500,000,000,000, 4000 lives, crippling our military, creating tens of thousands of casualties that will cripple our VA system, which was crippled to begin with, drive up oil prices due to the instability in the region, and overburdened our economy, we could have just bought the oil from Saddam. That way we could have bypassed all the added pork above. Had we not been there, Iraq would be basically in, at the worst possible scenario, an equal position to where it finds itself currently and most likely, probably would be better off.
Just purchasing the oil would have been conservative. All we have done is opened another door for al qaeda and hurt our country here and abroad.
Could you document Clinton and Gore's blatant and proven in a court of law corruption?

  Doing it that way would have prevented nearly 12 billion from "disappearing", and that would have put a cramp in the amount this admin could pilfer from the taxpayers. They weren't going to let that happen.
  It was a C-O-N spiracy!
