# 73 Bush tries to justify violating our Constitution.
Because he was reelected by a whopping 3% margin, GWB claims that justifies his unconstitutional war on Iraq.
The fact is, it doesn't matter if he was reelected by a unanimous vote, wrong is still wrong. FDR was reelected to four terms. That didn't make his socialist agenda right.

President Bush said the public's decision to reelect him was a ratification of his approach toward Iraq and that there was no reason to hold any administration officials accountable for mistakes or misjudgments in prewar planning or managing the violent aftermath.
"We had an accountability moment, and that's called the 2004 elections," Bush said in an interview with The Washington Post.
"The American people listened to different assessments made about what was taking place in Iraq, and they looked at the two candidates, and chose me."
