I totally believed Bush about the WMD in 2003. I was 100% pro-Iraq.

I didn't even like Bush, so I'm not sure why I bought into all that.

I can kinda get that. It's hard to believe that a president would either be that flagrantly wrong and still be confident enough in it to go to war, or would be willing to flagrantly lie to go to war. The enormity of it makes it harder to believe.

I saw someone on Twitter making a similar point about the tax bill, actually: it's just genuinely hard for people on the center/center-right to believe that the bill is as bad as it actually is.

I was anti-war in 2003. My dad locked me in the car and drove me in circles describing what WMDs do and various Afghani and Iraqi human rights abuses in some detail (I don't remember what he said well enough to verify any of it, because it was 14 years ago) until I agreed that the invasion was a good idea.

I was 10. Parenting!

i'm... still sorta pro-iraq?

in the sense that "it was a war that was always going to happen so let's get it over with", not the clusterfuck the aftermath turned into

Same here.

Like, Iraq was a fucking shitshow and I'm 100% against how we handled virtually every aspect of it. But I never had a problem with going to war with Iraq in general. I think it was inevitable after 9/11.
