Winston was right, and Chamberlain looks like a complete and utter fool. History will show whether Bush is good or bad, I don’t think it can be decided now. So in a sense neither of you are correct as current events have yet to play themselves out.

Yeah, and he was thrown out of the seat after the war ;)
Given, Churchill proved right down the line, but Bush has actually been proven wrong down the line. There are no WMDs, there was no link between Saddam and Al Qaeda and so most of the reasons cited as justifications to the Iraq invasion have actually been proven completely false. I think nobody has denied this, so we can simply conclude that Bush lied to everybody about invading Iraq. If at all it was a threat to anyone outside Iraq, it was never so immediate to warrant an invasion. So don't compare Bush with Churchill.
So you don't need to wait a hundred years to decide if Bush lied or not. It's been proven immediately.
