War helps the economy. Someone's got to make the weapons.
When Bush confronted Saddam about weapons of mass destruction, Saddam didn't give any real evidence that they had gotten rid of all of the weapons of mass destruction. Remember: The weapons inspectors weren't given full access to look where they wanted.
Hans Blix isn't trusted for his word anymore, because he as it turns out has an agenda to push as well -- that the UN has power, which the US directly contradicted... But that's another story.
Saddam wouldn't prove he did not have weapons of mass destruction; which would raise the question of why? To use when least expected. We were in a terrorist panic, remember? (I believe we still have 2 gas masks per household today as well.)
Finally, the Iraqi government really did promote terrorists. This has been proven. There is a 747 just outside of Baghdad that is used to teach terrorists how to take over airplanes. But I guess it's just another High School course by their standards, afterall we're being told Iraq has nothing to do with AL Qiaeada (or however they're spelling it this week), but don't believe for a moment that means nothing to do with terrorism. We associate the two too closely.
Plus we giveth, we taketh....
