Bush had doubts about Iraq intelligence
Bush has frequently stated he was using the same intelligence Clinton used when he decided to invade Iraq, "It's the same intelligence that was used by my predecessor to bomb Iraq." (February 23, 2004)
But to Bush, that intelligence was not conclusive -as of early 2002 - with all the intelligence reports his predecessor had - he wasn't sure Iraq was developing WMD, "I expect Saddam Hussein to let inspectors back into the country. We want to know whether he's developing weapons of mass destruction." (January 16, 2002)
