Arguably worse than not prosecuting the war criminals from the Bush Administration was not running all the Iraq War cheerleaders out of their media jobs.
only were against it when things started to go bad
And even then their opposition was narrowly limited. You could say the war was bad, you could say the war was based on a lie (although this was buried), but somehow it was too far to suggest throwing the architects of that war in prison. You likewise couldn't suggest an immediate pullout, or giving Iraqis any democratic say in our presence there. Paying Iraq reparations for destroying their country on false pretenses? You'd get laughed out of the room, even if you couched it in "nation building" terms. And of course any broader critique of the military was strictly off-limits.
It's crazy because it's historical memory about themselves! Not even some event in the recent past that happened before a lot of people today were born, like WW2 or something.
We literally saw the Dems and the press line up behind the man they spend every hour of their lives railing against when he parked an aircraft carrier off the Straights of Hormuz

The thing that libs never want to talk about is how they were 100% behind the invasion in 2003 and only were against it when things started to go bad.

One of the delightful things about Americans is that they have absolutely no historical memory.
The libs will do it again in a heartbeat. They've learned nothing.
