so in your mind it is ok to use WMD to deter criticsm even if the threat of WMD (at 
least nuclear) was unsubstantiated. So it was therefore ok to lie to the american 
people about the real purposes of the war. So it was ok that the government not trust 
the american people to make a considered opinion based on the truth? So it was ok 
because the government knows what is best to hell with that peskly government by the 
people stuff?
