Yes, we should only have gone in there for our own interests.

The problem for Bush is that the justification, "Saddam has WOMD", while in our nation's interests, was false. Since the secondary justification, "get the oil", isn't something that will really fly in the international community, then the tertiary justification, "save the Iraqis" had to become the primary justification.

And so you end up with him saying stuff like that.
