Sleep Well, America, Knowing Who’s On Watch

I honestly wish that didn’t sound so impotent. The Founder of the Feast.
If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people:

1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money 3) We won’t need a lot of troops
4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq
5) We’ll find WMDs
6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators
7) It will be easy
8) It won’t take long

All lies.
All lies we wanted to hear. Well, Congress did, anyway
Wouldn't it be nice to have a Congress with any modern history whatsoever at effectively asserting its authority to limit war powers. But that's not a living memory.
Well, I remember the War Powers Act being enacted, but that doesn’t contradict the statement. Sleep well, America, knowing he’s on watch.
