I too was against the war, not because I was
convinced it was bullshit, but I didn't see Iraq as a imminent or existential threat, even if they indeed had a nascent WMD program (as Iran, Pakistan, Libya and North Korea certainly did). I was fearful that it was a NeoCon scam, but not convinced of it.
But when the President personally sells an idea, a lot of people buy into it. Just look how you hang on Trump's every word, despite him being the biggest liar ever to grace the American political stage.
