Sweet Lord, theres two of them now. Anyway, I don't recall the Iraqi people electing GWB as the person they wanted to start a 'crusade', invade their country, and kill 10,000 or more civilians in order to 'free' them.

Noone claimed the invasion was about freedom. The invasion was about non-existent WMD's, or possibly oil, or possibly military bases. Noone voted to free the Iraqi people by bombing them.
