Rachel Maddow stopped by The Daily Show to chat on her new documentary Why We Did It on MSNBC.
Of course, Maddow's detractors will hate it, but I've always thought it odd that after all those years in Iraq, and the lives lost and injured, so many conservative hawks never want to own up to the fact that the reasons we were at war kept changing. And our goals kept changing.
Remember "weapons of mass destruction?" None found. Remember "shock and awe?" It was going to be over in a matter of days. The Iraqis won't know what hit them. We'll be welcomed as liberators. The oil in Iraq will pay for the war.
None of that was true. And no one ever stepped up and said "we screwed up."
If you care about America, surely these questions would concern you. As would the absence of answers.
Rachel Maddow's documentary is available online here.
