I think it was a no brainer to assume the US would start making plans to topple Iraq the day a second Bush was sworn into office.

Maybe it was a no brainer, but that doesn't make it right.

The Iraq to 9/11 links are only as suspect as the Bin Laden to 9/11 link announced only hours after the event happened.

Bin Laden had declared war on America, and was also a top operative for one of the largest terror networks in the world. This makes him more of a likely target, IMO.

Again it's a no brainer. Saddam was involved with terrorist groups, and had been linked to prior attempts on the WTC. Why not question it the day after?

Question, no problem. Declare a factual link? Big problem.

Wasn't it Clinton who was the first to say Saddam had WMD???

Eeverybody said it and meant it prior to 1998. But that was then, this is now, and things change.....

I think the best argument is that we know Saddam had WMD because WE sold them to him!!!!! Wasn't that a popular leftist damning America argument at one point?

It was a popular argument when discussing the gassing of the Kurds. It's relevant in that context, it isn't relevant in 2003 when you consider that bio-weapons have a certain shelf life under ideal conditions.
