It was down on the list quite considerably but since I guess its OK to allow a guy in violation of 17 UN Security Council resolutions to systematically compensate the families of suicide bombers in Israel since these bombers were not a threat to America (see March Hare post above). He'd been getting passes for years, I guess we should've given him one there too like March Hare does.

Where it was on your list has little to do with where it was on most American's list. The perception was that Saddam was involved with 9/11 and this was enough justification to attack.
Most people who followed the situation knew this to be a lie. The other falsehood that Saddam had WMD was also up for review, but there was little evidence that this was the case, so after the first lie, I didn't trust Bush. Well actually I never trusted Bush from the getgo, but that's just me.
