They were never held accountable. And let's not sugar coat it. Bush and his coleagues didn't just act upon wrong intelligence; they flat out fabricated it to get what they wanted. Bush was going to invade Iraq and wouldn't take no for an answer.

Not really that much different than Canadian elections really. I don't think the U.S. has a monopoly dirty politics.
