Top Bush Scandals of 2003, Part I: Iraq
By Bob Fertik And Ted Kahl
Because there are so MANY scandals, we will publish our list in several different categories, starting with The Mother of All Scandals - Iraq.
Bush's invasion of Iraq may be the single greatest scandal in American history, thoroughly eclipsing such major scandals as Watergate and Teapot dome, not to mention the utterly insignificant Lewinsky affair. Sometime
in the future, historians will judge whether it marked the end of American Democracy and the start of a totalitarian American Empire.
