“The line … in the speech that draws the most flak afterward is, “The capture of Saddam has not made America safer.” But analytically, Dean is right. The people who are safer with Saddam in prison are in Iraq, Iran, and Kuwait. We weren’t on the list. I supported the war to punish a scofflaw and put teeth in U.N. resolutions. Bush now defends the war as a rescue mission for oppressed Iraqis. Neither reason has to do with U.S. security.” — Will Saletan, Slate
